Cristina Losada-Gutiérrez, Enrique García · 2007
Inthecurrent railway systems, itisbecoming more Thesesystems usually present theproblem ofgenerating necessary tohavesafety elements inorder toavoid accidents. One false alarms, thuscreating financial losses whenever thesystem ofthecauses that canprovoke serious accidents istheexistence of detects anobstacle whichdoesnot,inreality, exist. Toavoid obstacles inrailways, either fixed ormobiles. Inthis work,a thisproblem isnecessary toincrease thereliability ofthe multisensorial system isproposed inordertoinformthedetection system. Thisfactdepends strongly onthesensor monitoring system oftheexistence ofobstacle. Theuseofdifferent usedth sensors forthesametaskisjustified bythehighdegreeof e reliability neededintheseenvironments, wherethesafety is out. fundamental. Inarailway environment working conditions canbereally adverse, andtheaffectation canbequite different depending on
