Abstract
Background: Accurate tracking of train speed is the key link to ensure the stability, accuracy and safety of automatic train operation. To solve the influence of multi-information of freight train speed control system on tracking accuracy, the information fusion preview control freight train speed tracking control system is constructed.
With the increase in the speed and capacity of freight trains, the safety, energy efficiency and intelligent operation of train operation have become increasingly important. Automatic freight trains operation can replace manual operation with automated control systems, which can guarantee the safety of train operation, and improve operational efficiency and reduce operational energy consumption.
Objective: Solve the problem of tracking accuracy and stability deterioration caused by multiinformation of freight train.
Methods: Global navigation satellite system, inertial navigation system and speed measuring motor are selected to construct a speed fusion measurement model by using loosely coupled integrated navigation and improved entropy weight method. The information quantity of performance index and control quantity in preview control is calculated, and the controlled quantity of information fusion optimal preview control is obtained.
Results: The average tracking error of the multi-source information fusion preview controller is 0.038m/s, which is 49% lower than that of the control experiment.
Conclusion: Multi-source information fusion preview controller can effectively reduce the tracking error of freight train speed tracking system and improve the accuracy of automatic freight trains operation.
