A system for controlling movement of a vehicle that includes a camera system mounted on the vehicle and configured to generate image signals of terrain within the vehicle path of movement of the vehicle, a radar system mounted on the vehicle and configured to generate distance signals to an object in the terrain, and a processor having multiple GPU rasters in a series data processing configuration that are configured to utilize a hypotenuse processing function for drawing lines from pixel to moving entity center (MEC) or from macro cell center to MEC, and a detector configured to test for raster frame lock between the multiple GPU rasters structured to determine a relative speed of the vehicle with respect to the object in the path of movement of the vehicle, and to generate control signals to alter the direction or speed of the vehicle or both to avoid the object.

A system of train control uses a quasi-moving block methodology for controlling operation of a plurality of trains from a remote office. The office parses the route information for each train into non-overlapping movement authorities that are issued via a communications network. As each train proceeds, it communicates with the office to automatically roll up its movement authority and release the portion of the movement authority behind the train. The office then extends the movement authority of the subsequent train to reflect the released portion of the movement authority of the leading train. The track can be divided into a series of track circuits to enable detection of broken rail or unexpected occupancy. The office segment can then control operation of trains accordingly if broken rail or unexpected occupancy is detected in the train's movement authority.

A train activates an emergency brake when a Station Loop Coil (SLC) used for a stop-position determination function to determine whether the train has stopped at a stop target in a terminal becomes unable to be detected (non-detected state) before the train is determined to have stopped at a stop-position by the stop-position determination function after the SLC has been detected. Thus, the train can be prevented from colliding with a car stop disposed at an end of a track as a result of overrunning. In the terminal protection, an emergency brake or a service brake is activated also when a reception duration during which the SLC continues to be detected reaches a predetermined threshold time period, or when a traveling position of the train reaches a disposed position of the SLC but the SLC is not detected.

A system may include one or more processors disposed onboard a vehicle. When in an active state of the vehicle in which the system may receive instructions from an off-board system, the processors may receive enforcement targets from an off-board source. The enforcement targets may be associated with corresponding portions of a route and may have corresponding associated enforcement activities to be performed based on location of the vehicle relative to the corresponding portions of the route. The processors may store at least some of the received enforcement targets onboard the vehicle as preserved targets having corresponding preserved enforcement activities responsive to a transition from the active state to a degraded state of the vehicle in which two or more enforcement targets are no longer received. The processors may perform the preserved enforcement activities associated with the preserved targets.

The invention relates to a multi-station integrated code sending control method, an electronic device and a medium. The method comprises the following steps: 1. supervising, by a train control and interlock integration device, a plurality of adjacent stations; 2. connecting the train control and interlock integration device to a train control center device or a train control and interlock integration device of other adjacent non-integrated stations through a communication interface; 3. dividing all integrated stations into stops, relay stations, lines and non-wiring stations according to station types; and 4. determining low-frequency codes of all stations through cyclic traversal to realize the code sending function. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantage of being high in efficiency.

A train control system uses machine learning for implementing handovers between centralized and distributed train control models. A machine learning engine receives training data from a data acquisition hub, receives a centralized train control model from a centralized virtual system modeling engine, and receives an edge-based train control model from an edge-based virtual system modeling engine. The machine learning engine trains a learning system using the training data to enable the machine learning engine to predict when a locomotive of the train will enter a geo-fence where communication between the edge-based computer processing system and the centralized computer processing system will be inhibited.

A system for exclusive track resource sharing is provided. Some embodiments provide an exclusive track resource sharing system including onboard control units and a resource manager. Onboard control unit is provided in each of trains and is configured to communicate with another onboard control unit in another train. The resource manager is configured to record ownership status information of track resources of the plurality of trains, to provide the ownership status information of the track resources to the onboard control unit, and to generate and deliver a resource entitlement or resource authority to the onboard control unit. The resource authority is configured to be owned by a single onboard control unit. The onboard control unit possessing the resource authority is configured to seize or release the track resources corresponding to the resource authority and to control the track resources corresponding to the resource authority.
