SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A QUALITY OF A LOCATION ESTIMATION OF A POWERED SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system at a location, said system comprising:
- a first sensor configured to measure a first parameter of said powered system at said location;
a second sensor configured to measure a second parameter of said powered system at said location; and
a second controller configured to determine said location estimation of said powered system and said quality of the location estimation, based upon a first location of said powered system based on said first parameter, and a second location of said powered system based on said second parameter of said powered system.

Abstract
A system is provided for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system at a location. The system includes a first sensor configured to measure a first parameter of the powered system at the location. The system further includes a second sensor configured to measure a second parameter of the powered system at the location. The system further includes a second controller configured to determine the location estimation of the powered system and the quality of the location estimation, based upon a first location of the powered system based on the first parameter, and a second location of the powered system based on the second parameter of the powered system. A method is also provided for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system at a location.

20. A system for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system at a location, said system comprising:
-
a speed sensor configured to determine a speed of said powered system at said location; a position determination device configured to provide a measured position of said powered system; and a second controller configured to determine said quality of the location estimation during a first time period when said position determination device provides said measured position of the powered system, said quality based on at least one of an uncertainty in said position of said powered system and an uncertainty in the speed of said powered system. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A method for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system at a location, said method comprising:
-
measuring a speed of the powered system at the location; measuring a position of the powered system; and determining the location estimation of the powered system and the quality of the location estimation, based upon a first location of the powered system based on the speed, and a second location of the powered system based on the measured position of the powered system.
