Abstract

Monitoring the condition of railway tracks effectively increases the safety of railways. A system that uses a compact on-board sensing device was previously developed for monitoring the track condition of railways. The system's position identification method uses GPS map-matching.However, this system had an error of several tens of meters depending on GPS reception conditions. In this study, the position correction method was tested using curvature calculated from yaw angular acceleration. The results of the test study indicated that it is possible to diagnose the location of track irregularities more clearly.
