STUDY OF A NEW TECHNIQUE FOR THE TRAIN TRACKING SYSTEM

초록

Accurate and reliable tracking of train is essential for a train control system. The fixed block system which utilizes the track circuit has been used widely for detecting of train position. As an alternative, the moving block system has the advantage over the fixed block system since it enables shorter headway and easier maintenance. This paper presents a new technique for the train tracking system which uses radio signal for the train position detection. The proposed algorithm uses the phase difference of arrival of radio signal. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.
