Title:
TRAIN STOP DETECTION SYSTEM AND TRAIN TRAVEL SPEED AND POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2010184527
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To solve the following problems wherein stop position detection accuracy is poor and a travel amount from a stop position to the opposite direction is limited when a train travel distance from a wayside coil position is long; and a predetermined speed or below cannot be detected during train stop determination, and time lag due to several-second waiting time deteriorates train operational density during rush hour.

A train stop detection system includes a train-mounted image pickup section for periodically photographing image signals; a detection object information retention section for retaining template images of detected objects in individual stations and offset distances from the respective detected objects to stop positions; a train position detection section for detecting the detected object from the image taken by the image pickup section and then detecting a train position based on a distance to the detected object; a travel speed detection section for detecting a train travel speed from the image taken by the image pickup section; and a train stop determination section for determining whether a train stops at a prescribed stop position by using the results of the train position detection section and the travel speed detection section.
