Abstract

The presented paper shows an innovative approach to a vehicle autonomous localisation system for railways, providing cost-efficient position information for various safety- or non-safety related systems especially for protection systems on non-equipped secondary lines in a cost efficient way. This is the main focus of a project called "DemoOrt" which consists of developing a platform with an onboard, vehicle autonomous technology, a reference measuring platform and a safety analysis methodology. This approach integrates and uses available as well as innovative technologies with the focus on satellite based positioning (GPS, GALILEO1 and EGNOS). For the covering abstract see ITRD E134653.
