Position detector system for guide vehicles
First Claim
1. A position detector system for a guided vehicle comprising:
- a) a memory block in which is stored each journey, divided into sections identified by a profile of theoretical parameters, and in which a profile of threshold correction parameters are stored;
b) a curve recorder for recording actual parameters relating to travel of the vehicle in a curve and a relative position recorded for recording actual parameters relating to forward movement of the vehicle, both curve recorder and relative position recorder generating signals which are sent toc) a control unit, which uses these signals to establish a profile of actual correction curves parameters and undertakes an adjustment based upon achieving a minimum error between the profile of theoretical parameters and the profile of actual parameters, and determines the actual position of the vehicle.

Abstract
The position detector system for guided vehicles has a memory block which stores each journey, divided into sections identified by their theoretical parameters and in which the correction curves are stored; at least one recording unit sensitive to travel in a curve and a relative position recording unit, signals from which are sent to a control unit which using the signals, establishes the profile of variations of the actual parameters of the correction curves and carried out an adjustment based upon achievement of the minimum error in the profiles of coordinates obtained from the theoretical parameters and the actual parameters, determining the absolute real position of the vehicle. The system is especially suited for the railway rolling stock industry.
