A system includes a first propulsion subsystem and a second propulsion subsystem. The first propulsion subsystem is operable to provide electrical energy to a first communication device when operating in an ON mode. The second propulsion subsystem is operable to provide electrical energy to a second communication device when operating in the ON mode. The first propulsion subsystem and the second propulsion subsystem are controllable in a mode of operation where if one of the first propulsion subsystem or the second propulsion subsystem is controlled to be in an OFF mode, the other of the first propulsion subsystem and the second propulsion subsystem provides electrical energy to the respective first communication device or the second communication device.

A communication system includes an electronic component located at a wayside device positioned along a route of a rail vehicle and a router transceiver unit operably coupled to the electronic component. The router transceiver unit is conductively coupled to a power supply conductor that supplies electric current to power at least one of the electronic component of the wayside device or an electronic apparatus other than the electronic component. The router transceiver unit is configured to communicate network data with a remote location through the power supply conductor.

A method for communicating data in a rail vehicle consist includes transmitting, at a first rail vehicle in the consist, first data over a running rail to a second, different rail vehicle in the consist, where the running rail guides and supports the rail vehicles of the consist as the rail vehicles travel along the running rail. The method also includes monitoring the running rail for second data and receiving the second data over the running rail for use by a first system onboard the first rail vehicle.

A method for communicating data in a rail vehicle consist includes transmitting first data at a first rail vehicle of the consist over a power supply conductor to a second, different rail vehicle in the consist, where at least one rail vehicle of the consist receives direct electrical power from the power supply conductor. The method also includes monitoring the power supply conductor for second data at the first rail vehicle and receiving the second data over the power supply conductor at the first rail vehicle for use by a first system onboard the first rail vehicle. In one aspect, the transmitting step comprises transmitting the first data over one or more of a catenary line or a third rail that supplies the electrical power.
摘要:
A method of aligning a first image captured by a first camera with at least a segment of an image captured with a second camera, the images captured by the first and second camera having an overlapping field of view, the method comprising: determining, in the first image, an image characteristic value indicative of an image characteristic at a position within the overlapping field of view; determining, in the second image, an image characteristic value indicative of an image characteristic at a position within the overlapping field of view; determining the difference in position between corresponding image characteristic values in the overlapping field of view in the first image and the overlapping field of view in the second image; and applying a transform to the first image, the transform adjusting the orientation of the first image relative to the second image, wherein the first and second image are aligned when the difference in position between corresponding image characteristic values in the first and second image is a predetermined amount.

摘要:
Video signals which represent a scene as viewed by a camera are processed to combine a computer generated object with the video signals with the effect that the computer generated object appears within the scene when the video signals are displayed. The scene includes a first object. The process includes mapping a virtual model of the first object to a position of the first object within the scene so that the virtual model substantially corresponds with the real object. The virtual model has a degree of transparency such that the virtual model can be rendered as a substantially transparent virtual object within the scene. The process further includes detecting occluded regions of the virtual model. The occluded regions correspond to regions of the virtual model which are hidden from a virtual light source by the computer generated object. The process also includes modifying the degree of transparency of the virtual model at the occluded regions so as to generate modified transparency regions, and rendering the scene in combination with the computer generated object and the virtual model such that the modified transparency regions of the virtual model appear as shadows on the first object.

A system includes a monitoring module, a congestion module, a modification module, and a communication module. The monitoring module monitors vehicles in a transportation network. The congestion module calculates a throughput parameter that is representative of a statistical measure of adherence to a movement plan by the vehicles. The modification module determines a confidence parameter representative of a probability that changing the original meet event does not reduce the throughput parameter. The modification module modifies the original meet event to an updated meet event when the confidence parameter exceeds a predetermined threshold. The communication module transmits the updated meet event to the yielding vehicle and/or the passing vehicle, for the yielding vehicle and/or the passing vehicle to receive the updated meet event from the communication module and change a speed of the yielding vehicle or the passing rail vehicle to arrive at the updated meet event.
