OVERVIEW OF AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION SYSTEMS FOR ROLLING STOCK
Keywords:
system, rolling stock, identification, code, system control, automation, telemechanics.Abstract
With a long railway line, the time it takes to deliver cargo from the point of departure to the point of destination can be significant. Naturally, the shipper would like to constantly know where his cargo is at the moment. The automatic identification system of rolling stock of railway transport allows you to quickly and objectively receive data on the time and location of each car and locomotive. With the help of this system, you can monitor the movement of trains in real time, see at what point a specific car is coupled or uncoupled, etc.
In addition, the automatic identification system gives a lot to the road itself - there is no need for inefficient manual labor of car number listers, it is known exactly where and in what condition the locomotives needed for train movement are located.
