Zusammenfassung:The braking control problem for railway vehicles is considered. Communication flow from the front coaches to the rear ones is introduced, and a novel distributed braking control algorithm is proposed that, based on preview control theory, allows one to reduce the stopping distance. The effectiveness of the designed algorithm is corroborated by simulation comparisons to other standard approaches.
