The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2016 IEEE. This paper proposes a new high reliable unilateral inductive axle counting sensor prototype based on eddy-current principle. It could send out strong analog signal several kilometers away without any trackside or inner magnifying circuits because of its special open flux magnetic structure and signal processing method. The operational principle of the sensor is studied with modeling as well as the validation by experiments in labs. Signal processing is implemented to extract the information of train's occupation including the vehicle speed, traversing direction, wheel diameter and so on. It also conforms to the requirement of the Safety Integrity Level 3 standard. The performance of this proposed sensor is discussed with different operational conditions for the future work.
