Title:
METHOD FOR REDUCING THE DELAY OF A RAIL VEHICLE TO REACH A DESTINATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/017120
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method for reducing the drive delay of a rolling stock to reach a destination, the rolling stock being driven by a driver to follow a running profile that defines the speeds and positions of the rolling stock at different timings. The method comprises the steps of: -determining a current timing, -getting a nominal acceleration of the rolling stock, the nominal acceleration being determined by the driver of the rolling stock to follow the running profile at the current timing, -determining the speed error of the rolling stock with the rolling profile, -determining the position error of the rolling stock with the rolling profile, -determining an estimate of the time to reach the destination, -determining a marginal acceleration from the speed error, the position error and the estimated time to reach the destination, -accelerating the rolling stock with the sum of nominal and determined marginal accelerations.
