Mathematical Modeling of an Additional Shunt Zone in Track Circuits With a Potential Receiver: Algorithm and Calculations

The paper presents an algorithm and methodology for calculating the additional shunt zone in track circuits with a potential receiver. The issues of mathematical modeing of a seamless track circuit are considered, and a method is proposed for determining the maximum shunting zone when the train moves away from the track circuit. The calculation results make it possible to conduct research and determine the optimal parameters of rail circuits with a potential receiver, which is important for taking technical easures to improve the operation of transport systems.
