Method and Algorithm of the Automatic Warning System of Train Approaches to Railways

This paper presents an analysis of train warning systems on railway sections. Automatic signaling devices for the approach of trains to the railway sections through the railway rail chains, centralized complex information systems to inform passengers through communication speakers in the railway and station fleet, and automatic sound from the approach of trains and shunting vehicles to the workplace. the principles of operation of notification systems are studied. The causes of the accidents that are currently taking place on the railway sections have also been studied. Research has shown that it is proposed to change the method of the warning system and its algorithm, as it is not possible to warn pedestrians walking around the tracks with automatic warning systems for the approach of trains to the railway sections. In addition to the warning systems of signaling centralization blocking devices, in order to warn passengers or pedestrians wearing headphones around the railway about the approach of the train and reduce the number of accidents related to the railway: installation of noise generators in the cabins of rolling stock; installation of internal and external surveillance cameras to record driver movements and external movements; it is proposed to increase the illumination distance of locomotive lights and use an audible signal. The article examines the operation algorithm of the method of warning passengers or pedestrians walking around the railway with headphones on the approach of the train, and the safety and reliability of the operation process using the Markov chain.
