Railways have already introduced satellite-based localization systems for non-safety related
applications. Driven by economic reasons, the use of these systems for new services and, in …

GNSS plays a strategic role on the introduction of the Virtual Balise functionality and the train
integrity. Thanks to GNSS, it could be possible to realize cost-effective solutions to increase …

This paper presents an innovative global navigation satellite system (GNSS) fault detection
and exclusion approach for the adoption of satellite localization in the rail sector. Current …

Nowadays, the train integrity function is assured by track circuits deployed along the line.
This approach is safe but has several limitations since if any part of a track is occupied, that …

Independently on the business case addressed, one of the main drawbacks of the railway
use cases that need continuous Global Navigation Satellite Systems data is the lack of …

A completely new area of HoloLens usage is proposed. The Hololens is an augmented
reality device, which provides the high precision location information. Such an information is …

This paper deals with high integrity systems based on a two-tiers Augmentation system
architecture. The Augmentation System is based on a regional system and a local system …

GNSS positioning with high Integrity and accuracy attributes is a key application for
implementing more efficient and safer automated train systems. The goal is an overall …

In this paper we investigate the issue of positioning and tracking of a train, supported by pre-
existing control and monitor system, as well as the use of satellite positioning services. The …

Modern signaling systems play a major role to provide safety net to prevent accidents due to
human errors, and the management of railway operation to maximize the use of scarce …
