  Abstract

Advanced railway operating systems need the ETCS Level 3. Train integrity monitoring, which is the core function in achieving ETCS L3 technology, provides the continuous monitoring of the current position and state of a running train without full dependency of track-side equipment. Technical solutions for passenger trains based on fixed train formation exist even in present systems, but freight trains do not have a feasible solution because they do not provide an electrical power supply to other vehicles except the rear-end vehicle of train and they are running under non-fixed train formation. This paper presents system requirements, system architecture and system implementation for freight train integrity monitoring and proposes an algorithm for train separation detection. In addition, we have performed several tests for our train integrity monitoring system on real freight train. The test results showed our system is a feasible solution for freight train integrity monitoring.
