Definitions

  • driver assistance systems in semi-automatic operation with rail vehicles, which are based on model calculations. These model calculations, based on a stored route profile and the desired timetable, determine how to accelerate the rail vehicle and decelerate against turns, switches, or stops to optimally meet timetable requirements with minimal energy requirements. It has been shown in practice that driver assistance systems can reduce the energy requirement for the same driving time by an average of 20% compared to vehicles controlled only by the driver.
  • US 2009/0118970 A1 describes a method for optimizing an energy system and for monitoring and controlling the operation of a vehicle.
  • the aim is to increase efficiency and at the same time comply with timetable conditions.

  • a "high-speed drive” should be understood in particular to mean a drive in which a speed of more than 200 km / h, preferably more than 250 km / h, is achieved.
  • a "travel indication” should be understood to mean, in particular, an indication which characterizes the travel of a rail vehicle along a route at least at one point in time or during a time span or at least one position along the route or in a route section.
  • a trip can be an input parameter of a model calculation to determine the driving data or it can be used to derive such an input parameter, for example by the input parameter is assigned to the trip.

Alternatively or additionally, the driving data can be calculated by means of a computing unit which is remote from the rail vehicle in a fixed computing station, wherein the driving data are transmitted to the rail vehicle.
  • air pressure parameter is to be understood in particular as meaning a physical quantity by means of which a correspondence to an air pressure value can be established.
  • the air pressure characteristic may be the air pressure itself or a characteristic proportional to the air pressure, e.g. an electrical characteristic detected by a sensor unit.

  • the factor associated with the detected air pressure parameter is preferably included as an input parameter of a model calculation for determining the driving data, wherein it represents an aerodynamic component of the rolling resistance of the rail vehicle. It is selected here in the database, which is stored in the memory unit and in which factors are assigned to values of the air pressure characteristic.
  • the deposited factors are advantageously calculated in the development of the rail vehicle based on its aerodynamic properties and for different values of the air pressure characteristic.

  • the air pressure characteristic can be detected for example by means of air pressure sensors, which are arranged at different locations along the route. These may be components of weather stations located near the line. However, detection of the air pressure parameter at any position along the route can be achieved if the air pressure parameter is detected by a sensor unit on board the rail vehicle. This sensor unit can have a pressure sensor and a computing unit connected to it, which serves to take into account the influence of the driving speed on the detection value.
  • the air pressure characteristic can be detected by means of the detection of a height parameter.
  • a correspondence of the height parameter to an air pressure parameter can hereby be prepared by the barometric height formula.
  • the height parameter can itself serve as a barometric pressure parameter by being directly included as the input parameter of a model calculation for determining the driving data or directly assigned to such an input parameter, or it can be calculated from the height characteristic in addition to the height characteristic a separate air pressure parameter.
  • the altitude parameter is derived based on location information. This can be detected by means of a locating unit, which is arranged in particular on board the rail vehicle, and / or it can be determined based on stored route data.
