11 GNSS Introduction Location info. Time info. Short messages(bds) with high accuracy in all weather conditions anywhere on or near the Earth Cost-efficient available 24/7/365 9

12 Introduction GNSS-based train control systems EC and European Railway Agency (ERA) launched many projects to promote the progress of GNSSbased railway applications 2014 Shift2Rail InSat GPS-based PTC (Positive Train Control) had been equipped in the US and China (Qinghai-Tibet Line) GLONASS SDCM WAAS SATLOC GRailⅡ ATLAS 400, an European GPSbased train control system GALILEO EGNOS GPS WAAS BDS MSAS QZSS GAGAN GRail GEORAIL ECORAIL Locoprol InteGRail Gaderos Non-safety applications RUNE Europe GNSS-based railway applications projects GNSS is a worldwide, cost-efficient approach to locate the target, which makes GNSS-based positioning become one of the most promising positioning solutions for the next-generation train control system. 10

13 CONTENT 1 Introduction 2 Challenges 3 Solutions

14 Challenges GNSS was refused by railway: Policy issue ETCS (European Train Control System) CTCS (Chinese Train Control System) have been standardized in the last two decades. Balise and STM (Specific Transmission Module) are necessary in ETCS-1,2. *SUBSET-026 ERTMS/ETCS System Requirements ERTMS/ETCS reference architecture* 11 Specification issue:3.0.0

15 Challenges GNSS was refused by railway: Accuracy Accuracy of distances measured on-board: ± (5m+ 5% S) Accuracy of distinguishing parallel tracks: 1.5m 34% Masked sky & multipath Masked sky & multipath *SUBSET-026 ERTMS/ETCS System Requirements Specification issue: m ERTMS/ETCS reference architecture* 12

16 Challenges GNSS was refused by railway: There is a wall!! RAMS Railway applications must meet the requirements for Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety GNSS performance parameters, which are derived from aviation, are SIS Availability, Integrity, Continuity Safety: According to CCS TSI 2012/88/EU, for the hazard `exceeding speed and/or distance limits advised to ERTMS/ETCS' the tolerable rate (THR) is 10-9 /h for random failure, for on-board ERTMS/ETCS and for track-side, and positioning unit is just one of many subsystems. *Debiao Lu, GNSS for Train Localisation Performance Evaluation and Verification, Dissertation, Relation between GNSS and Railway Signalling QoS Properties* <10-9? 13

17 CONTENT 1 Introduction 2 Challenges 3 Solutions

18 Solutions Solutions: Pseudorange-based GNSS Carrier-phase-based GNSS SPS DGNSS RTK PPP Potentially High Accuracy High Availability High Safety SPS: Standard Positioning Service DGNSS: Differential GNSS RTK: Real Time Kinematic PPP: Precise Point Positioning 14

19 Solutions Solutions: Why PPP? Differential solutions ϕ = ρ + ε i i i = ϕ ρ ε k j j j PPP solutions ϕ = ρ + ε k k Station movements that result from geophysical phenomena such as tectonic plate motion, Earth tides and ocean loading enter the PPP solution in full, as do observation errors resulting from the troposphere and ionosphere. Relevant satellite specific errors are satellite clocks, satellite antenna phase center offset, group delay differential, relativity and satellite antenna phase wind-up error. Receiver specific errors are receiver antenna phase center offset and receiver antenna phase wind-up. In comparison with DGNSS, PPP has higher accuracy(centimetre to decimetre level*) Compared with RTK, PPP requires fewer reference stations globally distributed. PPP gives a highly redundant and robust position solution * M.D. Laínez Samper et al, Multisystem real time precise-point-positioning, Coordinates, Volume VII, Issue 2, February
