Galileo for railway operations: question about the positioning performances analogy with the RAMS requirements allocated to safety applications
Open accessAbstract
GNSS is penetrating, surely but certainly, the railway market. Introduction is performed through non safety oriented applications such as fleet management or passenger information. However, a huge panel of safety applications could take advantage of this technology. Galileo will soon complement the navigation satellite offer, monopolized today by GPS. Some issues have to be studied before safety uses: performance requirements have to be expressed; cost benefit analysis has to prove advantages compared to installed equipment... But one of the main issues concerns safety proofs that have to be in accordance with European railway standards. Today, Galileo is not yet deployed but specifications are available. However, such specifications have been mainly driven by aeronautics. This paper deals with the question of the RAMS evaluation of the satellite-based location function delivered to a railway safety application, as recommended by railway standards and presents a methodology to transpose GNSS specifications into RAMS. It explains each definition of performance and demonstrates the relations between the Galileo SoL performances and the railway RAMS attributes. GNSS are a powerful tool to enhance railway efficiency when its adequacy with railway specifications will be proved. This paper is a contribution to this effort.

There is a recognized need for providing train locations in real time compliant with railway safety requirements.
“Furthermore, there is a recognized need for providing train locations in real time, which should be compliant with the railway safety requirements [131] (e.g., with the EN 50126 standard).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
