SIGNAL TRANSMISSION FOR HIGH SPEED OPERATIONS OF 200 KM/H ON THE GERMAN RAILWAYS

R Luetgert

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

For speeds of 200 KM/H improvements in braking power was not sufficient to enable stopping within a required distance. A more sophisticated system using an electronic control system was designed, which displays to the engineering the following: the permitted speed goal, the distance ahead for which the goal speed pertains up to 5000 meters, speed changes depending on conditions, and the actual speed of operation. If deceleration, in response to predicted conditions ahead, is not actuated by the engineer, the control system activates emergency brakes. A full description of this system is illustrated with diagrams and charts.
