Precise positioning detection for conventional trains, track maintenance trains, and track equipment is essential to improve safety and efficiency of train operation and movement in a railway network. Project Technology development on the positioning detection of 400km/h class railroad with high precision has been conducted by Korea Railroad Research Institute. This paper presents preliminary results of train positioning detection using localization sensors and a measurement system, which selects and analyzes the used sensors. We expect to make application to train control system or autonomous train driving by enhancing location detection technology based on these results.
