Abstract :
This paper provides a new insight into the smooth and precise adaptive railway transport braking system development. The system contains a controller with a control program based on an adaptive control algorithm and a current train braking control system ensures an automatic smooth and precise braking of a train and another controller ensures an automatic stopping of the train before the red light. Some of the adaptive search algorithms are studied and the task is to test and select the most suitable and the most effective of them. The computer model and simulation results are described in this paper.
