For the method of train position detection, ground-based train position estimation mainly has been applied so far. Ground-based position detection is the way to detect train current positions by installing train position equipments on railroad lines. However, the ground-based methods should install detection equipments on each section, and can only be able to detect train positions from main command center. So this method has several disadvantages such as an discontinuous position detection, an increment in cost of installation and maintenance. To make possible continuous train position detection, and to minimize amount of the cost, the vehicle-based position detection method should be chosen to determine train positions by loading position equipments on vehicles. In this paper, to realize the vehicle-based train position detection method, configuration scheme of train position detection equipment is suggested by using GPS, inertial sensor, speed sensor and its performance is verified by simulations.

Platform Screen Door(PSD) has been installed in train manual operation section(ATS/ATC) by SeoulMetro since 2005. PSDs are now operating at 17 stations in SeoulMetro lines. As a result, it increases the safety of passenger, makes a comfortable platform and saves the energy of air conditioning. For PSD operation, train shall stop within 600mm of the train stop reference point. In train manual operation section, the detection system of train position is required to notify the train driver of train position and to ensure the condition that train stops the correct position for PSD operation. To detect the train stop position, the optical sensor shall be installed at platform. However, in case of SeoulMetro lines, the detection criterions of the train correct position stop are different because of using various types of trains which have different size and shape of front cars. In this paper, to solve this problem, the precise detection algorithm of the train stop at the correct position is used, and Laser distance measure sensor is introduced to notify the distance form the reference point of the train correct stop to train driver. This system has been applying to Seoul Metro line total.

Accurate and reliable tracking of train is essential for the train control system. The fixed block system which utilizes track circuit has been used widely for the detection 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 for the detection of train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

The high speed line and conventional line are a single-phase AC feeding system; and power supplies of different phases meet at SS(SubStation)s or SP(Sectioning Post)s. These sections should be negotiated with the main circuit breaker in the traction vehicle switched off, whereby the length of the neutral zone prevents the pantographs shunting adjacent overhead line section. In order for electric railway vehicles to make power running there, there must be a power supply changeover section (approx. for 1km), where a changeover switch changes a power supply to the other power supply of a train running direction sequentially. For a thorough changeover switching control, the precise train position detection is necessarily required. In this paper, to realize the ground-based train position detection method, configuration scheme of train position detection equipment is suggested by using track circuit and axle counter.

Accurate and reliable tracking system is essential for the central train control system. There are two systems widely being used. one is the fixed block system which utilizes the track circuit for the detection of train position. the other is the moving block system which has the advantage over the former since it enables shorter radio signal for the train position detection. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed which uses signal's phase difference of arrival to detect the train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

To safely control a group of trains, it is essential to detect the position of train. The system to detect the position of train by the train itself will become a mainstream of the new systems using radio transmission. This paper introduces the methods of train position detection that have been studied, introduces the trend of these methods. It also described the fundamental concept and approach to realize a system to detect the position of train which is applicable to systems.

정밀한 열차제어를 위해서는 열차위치의 정확한 검지가 반드시 필요하다. 현재 일반적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 열차검지방법은 궤도회로를 이용하는 방법이다. 궤도회로는 구성이 단순하며, 신뢰성이 확보되는 장점이 있다. 하지만 열차는 궤도회로 위에서만 검지가 가능하므로 모든 지상구간에 궤도회로를 설치해야하며 설치 및 유지보수에 많은 비용이 소모된다. 또한 궤도회로는 폐전로 구성의 특성 때문에 불연속적인 위치검지만이 가능하다. 최근 통신기술의 발달과 차상제어장치의 첨단화에 따라 열차의 위치검지는 열차에서 직접 검지하는 방법들이 연구되고 있다. 차상중심의 위치검지방식은 열차의 위치, 속도, 시각정보를 연속적으로 측정하여 열차의 제어정보로 사용하는 방식이다. 이러한 차상중심의 위치검지방식은 무선기반 열차제어 및 자기부상열차제어와 같이 궤도회로의 사용을 최소화 하는 최근 열차제어시스템의 개발동향이다. 본 논문에서는 GPS항법 및 DR항법의 특징을 분석하고 GPS항법과 DR항법의 단점을 보완하는 구조를 가지는 GPS/DR기반의 차상열차위치검지방식을 제안하였다. 항법오차의 추정자로서 3차윈 위치 오차, 자세각 오차, 타코메타 환산계수 오차를 상태변수로 하는 5차 칼만필터를 사용하여 최적의 위치오차 및 DR항법용 센서의 오차 추정이 가능하도록 필터를 설계하였으며 모의시험을 통해 GPS/DR기반의 차상열차위치검지장치의 위치추정성능을 확인하였다.

The aim of this paper is to provide a guide to those methods of train detection which are available, or are likely to become available, to the designer of train control or other relevant systems. In broad terms, train detection may be defined as the process of generating information which describes the location and movement of trains. Train detection information is difficult to define in isolation. Consider, for example, the train detection information required in a modern train control system. This may vary considerably : in a future high performance train control system, it might be necessary to know the precise position, direction of movement, speed, and possibly even the acceleration or braking, of all trains in the control area : in a less demanding application, it might be sufficient to know only the location of trains in terms of the occupation of sections of track.
