ERTMS level 3 applications of AI-based positioning
ERTMS level 3 offers incredible utilization of the track infrastructure. By upgrading fixed blocks to moving blocks, capacity can increase substantially. The main problem of ERTMS level 3 is the positioning: No wayside track vacancy detection systems, such as track circuits or axle counters, can be used. The perfect solution is AI-based positioning.
By utilizing AI-based positioning system, moving block can be used with ERTMS level 3:
