Abstract

This paper models and supervises kernel railroad crossing (KRC) systems using timed Petri nets and focuses on the control synthesis method, which consists in computing new firing conditions for the timed automaton (TA) transitions so that the forbidden locations are no longer reachable. The system to be modeled and supervised using timed Petri nets is converted to a TA and is analyzed using automata so that the functioning of the system respects given specifications. The main reason of using automata is that although the timed Petri nets supervisor controls the system, it fails to define the time units needed for the undefined time of a transition. Simulation results show the soundness of KRC modeling and supervision in the sense of ensuring the safety and maximizing utility (the gate should be opened as long as possible).
