[0022] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] The multipath interference detection method for a wireless train control system provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to Figure 1 In the system architecture shown, the system architecture includes a base station 100 , a train 200 , a repeater 300 , and a detection device 400 .

[0024] In the embodiment of the present invention, the detection device 400 is used to obtain the first operation control information and the second operation control information of the train 200 and the operation information sent by the train 200.

[0025] It should be noted that the first operation control information is sent by the base station 100 to the train 200, and the second operation control information is sent by the repeater 300 to the train 200; the operation information includes the train's location information and the third operation control information, and the third operation control information is received by the train 200 from the base station 100.

[0026] The detection device 400 is also used to determine the first parameter value of the signal for sending the first operation control information and the second parameter value of the signal for sending the second operation control information when the first operation control information is inconsistent with the third operation control information, and to send a multipath interference alarm and the train position information to the base station 100 when the first parameter value and the second parameter value are within a preset range.

[0027] In this solution, when the first and third operation control information are inconsistent, the system determines whether to send a multipath interference alert to the base station based on whether the first and second parameter values are within a preset range. This improves the efficiency and accuracy of multipath interference detection in the wireless train control system. Furthermore, the system transmits train location information during the alert, enabling precise positioning of the multipath interference detection system.

[0028] It should be noted that Figure 1 This is only an example of the system architecture of an embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention does not make any specific limitation to this.

[0029] Figure 2 A flowchart corresponding to a multipath interference detection method for a wireless train control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0030] Step 201: Acquire the first operation control information, the second operation control information and the operation information sent by the train.

[0031] It should be noted that the first operation control information is sent by the base station to the train, and the second operation control information is sent by the repeater to the train; the operation information includes the train's location information and third operation control information, and the third operation control information is received by the train from the base station.

[0032] In this embodiment of the present invention, when a base station transmits information to a train, the base station sends first operation control information to the train. The base station can also transmit information to the train via a repeater. The repeater amplifies the signal sent by the base station to generate second operation control information, which the repeater then sends to the train.

[0033] In a possible implementation, the base station intercepts the first operation control information during information transmission with the train, and the repeater intercepts the second operation control information during information transmission with the train.

[0034] In another possible implementation, multiple path signals from one signal source are parsed, and the same-source signals are parsed to obtain the first operation control information and the second operation control information.

[0035] It should be noted that the same-source signals contain the same information but have different signal strengths and delays.

[0036] Step 202: When the first operation control information and the third operation control information are inconsistent, determine a first parameter value for a signal sending the first operation control information and a second parameter value for a signal sending the second operation control information.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the base station is transmitting information to the train, the base station sends the first operation control information to the train.

[0038] The first operation control information is compared with the third operation control information received by the train from the base station.

[0039] In a possible implementation, after the first operation control information and the third operation control information are acquired, multiple bits of the first operation control information and the third operation control information are grouped according to preset lengths and then compared one by one.

[0040] For example, the first operation control information is 1100 0110 0101 0010; and the third operation control information is 1100 1111 0010 1101.

[0041] The first operation control information is grouped into 4 bits, and the first group is 1100.

[0042] The third operation control information is grouped into 4 bits, and the first group is 1100.

[0043] The first group of the first operation control information is the same as the first group of the third operation control information, and the comparison is continued.

[0044] The first operation control information is grouped into 4 bits, and the second group is 0110.

[0045] The third operation control information is grouped into 4 bits, and the second group is 1111.

[0046] If the second group of the first operation control information is different from the second group of the third operation control information, the first operation control information is inconsistent with the third operation control information.

[0047] Step 203: When the first parameter value and the second parameter value are within a preset range, a multipath interference alarm and train location information are sent to the base station.

[0048] In this solution, when the first and third operation control information are inconsistent, the system determines whether to send a multipath interference alert to the base station based on whether the first and second parameter values are within a preset range. This improves the efficiency and accuracy of multipath interference detection in the wireless train control system. Furthermore, the system transmits train location information during the alert, enabling precise positioning of the multipath interference detection system.

[0049] In a possible implementation manner, the first parameter value includes signal strength and signal delay for sending the first operation control information; and the second parameter information includes signal strength and signal delay for sending the second operation control information.

[0050] It should be noted that the first parameter value may further include phase information for sending the first operation control information, and the second parameter value may further include phase information for sending the first operation control information, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0051] In step 203 of an embodiment of the present invention, when the difference between the signal strength in the first parameter value and the signal strength in the second parameter value is less than a first threshold, and the difference between the signal delay in the first parameter value and the signal delay in the second parameter value is greater than a second threshold, a multipath interference alarm and the train position information are sent to the base station.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, a train is traveling on a track. During information transmission between the base station and the train, the base station transmits first operation control information f1 to the train. The base station can also transmit information to the train via a repeater. The signal sent by the base station is amplified by the repeater to generate second operation control information f2, which the repeater then transmits to the train.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first parameter value includes the signal strength P1 and signal delay t1 for sending the first operation control information f1; the second parameter information includes the signal strength P2 and signal delay t2 for sending the second operation control information f2.

[0054] Due to different paths and media, P1, P2, t1, and t2 are all changing.

[0055] When |P1-P2| is less than a first threshold and |t1-t2| is greater than a second threshold, a multipath interference alarm and train location information are sent to the base station.

[0056] In this solution, when the first and third operation control information are inconsistent, the system determines whether to send a multipath interference alert to the base station based on whether the first and second parameter values are within a preset range. This improves the efficiency and accuracy of multipath interference detection in the wireless train control system. Furthermore, the system transmits train location information during the alert, enabling precise positioning of the multipath interference detection system.

[0057] In a possible implementation, the first threshold value is in a range of [9, 12], and the unit is decibel; the second threshold value is in a range of [9, 12], and the unit is microsecond.

[0058] For example, when |P1-P2| is less than 12 decibels and |t1-t2| is greater than 12 microseconds, a multipath interference alarm and train location information are sent to the base station.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a train is traveling on the track. During information transmission between the base station and the train, the base station sends signal f1 to the train. The base station can also transmit information to the train through a repeater. The signal sent by the base station is amplified by repeater A to generate signal f2, which is then transmitted to the train. The signal sent by the base station is amplified by repeater B to generate signal f3, which is then transmitted to the train.

[0060] For the base station and repeater A, the first parameter value includes the signal strength P1 and signal delay t1 of sending f1; the second parameter information includes the signal strength P2 and signal delay t2 of sending f2.

[0061] Due to different paths and media, P1, P2, t1, and t2 are all changing.

[0062] When |P1-P2| is less than a first threshold and |t1-t2| is greater than a second threshold, a multipath interference alarm and train location information are sent to the base station.

[0063] For the base station and repeater B, the first parameter value includes the signal strength P1 and signal delay t1 of sending f1; the second parameter information includes the signal strength P3 and signal delay t3 of sending f3.

[0064] Due to different paths and media, P1, P3, t1, and t3 are all changing.

[0065] When |P1-P3| is less than a first threshold and |t1-t3| is greater than a second threshold, a multipath interference alarm and train location information are sent to the base station.

[0066] This solution sends a multipath interference warning and train location information to the base station when |P1-P2| is less than a first threshold and |t1-t2| is greater than a second threshold. It also sends a multipath interference warning and train location information to the base station when |P1-P3| is less than the first threshold and |t1-t3| is greater than the second threshold. This improves the efficiency and accuracy of multipath interference detection in the wireless train control system. Transmitting train location information during an alarm enables precise positioning for multipath interference detection in the wireless train control system.

[0067] The present invention also provides a multipath interference detection device for a wireless train control system, as described in the following embodiments. Figure 5 As shown, the device includes:

[0069] The processing module 502 is used to determine a first parameter value of a signal for sending the first operation control information and a second parameter value of a signal for sending the second operation control information when the first operation control information is inconsistent with the third operation control information; and when the first parameter value and the second parameter value are within a preset range, send a multipath interference alarm and the train position information to the base station.

[0073] When the difference between the signal strength in the first parameter value and the signal strength in the second parameter value is less than the first threshold, and the difference between the signal delay in the first parameter value and the signal delay in the second parameter value is greater than the second threshold, a multipath interference alarm and the train location information are sent to the base station.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present invention, the processing module 502 is specifically configured to:

[0075] The value range of the first threshold is [9, 12], and the unit is decibel; the value range of the second threshold is [9, 12], and the unit is microsecond.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present invention, the processing module 502 is further configured to:

[0077] After obtaining the first operation control information and the third operation control information, multiple bits of the first operation control information and the third operation control information are grouped according to preset lengths and then compared one by one.
