Support Vector Machine and Polynomial Fitting Approach for radio effective zones under Power Lines in Taiwan Railway

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to research the radio effective zones related to the service of a radio system for the dispatch of trolleys and the operation of level-crossings in the service of Taiwan Railways. The service uses radio and radio propagation to dispatch messages to trolleys and level-crossings throughout the railway system when the critical situation is occurred or the emergency button is pressed by users to allow the train driver to break subsequently. In order to estimate the radio effective zone, we perform some realistic measurements related to level-crossings and trolleys. Then, the data is analyzed using a combination of support vector machine (SVM) and polynomial approximation to estimate the radio effective zone, and create a new optimal model specific to the needs of Western Line, Pingtung Line and the Kaohsiung City local line in the Taiwan Railway context.
