Radio Remote Control Systems (Railway)
Radio remote control systems enable the remote monitoring, control, and data logging of
locomotives. The use of this technology has greatly helped the rail industry to enhance the
safety and avoid hazards. To design and build such systems for highly regulated European rail
industry, a thorough understanding of safety and quality standards is required. Getting these
systems approved from third parties like TÜV and EBA is a part of our comprehensive services.
Powersoft19 team offers the services of designing Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) radio remote
control systems compliant with the following safety standards:
EN 61508
EN 50128 (Up to SIL-3)
EN 50126 (Up to SIL-3)
EN 50129 (Up to SIL-3)
EN 50239

Remote Control Locomotive Systems
These fail-safe systems are designed for remote operation of locomotives in a yard for enhanced safety and
improved productivity.
Train Control System:
Train control system uses multiple train dynamics simulations to automatically control the train speed and
movement. The system is designed strictly according to the AAR train handling rules to ensure maximum
reliability, availability, and safety.
Train Dynamics Modeling:
Train dynamics modeling plays a great role in ensuring the safety of freight railroads. With the help of
accurate models of rail vehicle components, the in-train forces are simulated. These simulations are used in
derailment investigations, track improvements, vehicle design, and train driver advisory systems

Business Benefit Description
Cost & Service Time Reduction
Connected devices can automatically send out alerts, maintenance requests and be fixed
remotely, reducing downtime and the number of service trips required.
New or Better Services
Smart products offer solution providers enhanced data about their products, leading to the
development of new revenue streams.
Customer Relationship Building
Building relationships provides OEMs and solution providers the opportunity to create repeat
customers.
Increased Sales
Connected products can cater to customer preferences, increasing the likelihood that a
solution will be available to meet the needs of the user and providing more sales opportunities.
Differentiated Product Offerings
Selling services and end-to-end solutions is far more powerful than merely selling products;
connected devices can generate service businesses that can become indispensible to the
customer.
Better Customer Experiences
Connected devices enhance the user experience by providing real-time information and
seamless access through familiar portals like Internet browsers.
Improved Information
A product development function can generate feedback on how a given product is used (e.g.,
which features are popular, which feature cause problems, etc.) which can lead to improved
and updated products that are tailored to customers’ needs.
