Abstract
Railway axle counters are used to control occupancy of railway sections. Their typical application is occupancy control of level crossing or open railroad sections within the automatic block system. This paper presents possible architecture of railway axle counter using microcontrollers that fulfill SIL 3 safety level defined by IEC 61508 Standard.
