The paper suggests an approach to determination of actual train operation parameters according to data from on-board measurement systems in order to increase efficiency of application of automatic electric motive power operation systems. The authors have analysed scientific works in the sphere of improvement of automatic electric locomotive operation. The paper also presents results of comparison of grade computations in KORTES and real data from on-board measurement systems on 2ES6 electric locomotives that operate on a section of the West-Siberian Railway. As a result, the authors have substantiated a possibility to apply data gained from on-board measurement systems in real-time mode for determination of such train parameters as tractive effort torque of traction motors, electric locomotive traction effort, external forces of train tractive resistance, reduced gross load hauled and etc. The approach to determination of train parameters according to data of current measurements allows increasing peculiarity of transmission of control actions and efficiency of an automatic train operation system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
