Abstract

See full text

A method for selecting usable satellites from among the satellites of a localization constellation, to determine an instantaneous kinematic state of a train, is provided. The method includes determining a measured value and an estimated value of a Doppler coefficient and/or a pseudo-range, then comparing the measured and estimated values and, in case of divergence, deleting the satellite from the usable satellites. The estimated value results from a dynamic model of the train, which uses only a kinematic state at a past moment to calculate an estimated instantaneous kinematic state and that uses a mapping of the track on which the guided vehicle moves.
