An Intelligent System for Identifying Track Hauls Requiring Out-of-Turn Control of the Railroad Bed

An intelligent system for identifying track hauls requiring out-of-turn control of the railroad bed is proposed, the transmitting part of which is installed in one of the cars of rolling stock. The result of control of the railroad bed malfunctions through "means of communication" from the rolling stock is transmitted to the "system of establishing the presence of malfunctions on the track hauls" installed at the track maintenance department, or at the operations control service, which after a day after the formation of databases by analyzing it determines the hauls that need to be controlled out of turn. Taking into account that each state of the railroad bed corresponds to a group of diagnostic signs of the dynamic process occurring during the movement of trains on the railroads, using the estimates of the characteristics of noise and other characteristics of vibration signals, monitoring and signaling of the presence of a malfunction on the railroad bed is carried out. Here, if the current informative attributes do not exceed the reference ones, then it is considered that the technical condition of the track has not changed, and if it exceeds then it is assumed that there is the beginning of the latent period of track malfunction. The relevance of the proposed system is due to the fact that nowadays, despite the "scheduled control" of the railroad bed of track hauls from the influence of various factors, even a day after the control, there may be certain malfunctions that can cause a catastrophic derailment.
