  • System and method for determining a quality of a location estimation of a powered system
    Patent number: 8190312
    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.

  • SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER SOFTWARE CODE FOR OBTAINING INFORMATION FOR ROUTING A POWERED SYSTEM AND ADJUSTING A ROUTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RELEVANT INFORMATION
    Publication number: 20090198391
    Abstract: A method for controlling a powered system, the method including operating the powered system to perform a mission based on an optimized mission plan, identifying when the powered system is approaching a location in the mission where the powered system may change from a first route to a second route, obtaining information about whether the first route or the second route will be taken, and if the second route is taken, adjusting the mission plan to optimize reduced emissions output and/or reduced fuel consumption based on the route change.
