Positive Train Control (PTC):

  • Positive train control (PTC) is a system designed to prevent the human errors that cause train accidents, including train-to-train collisions, derailments caused by excess speed, train movement through track switches left in the wrong position, and unauthorized incursion into work zones.
  • PTC system provides audible and visual signals to the crew member regarding the slowing and stopping of the train.
  • For this purpose very high frequency wireless communication system is required.

1.[30 pts] Computers generate color pictures on a video screen or liquid crystal display by mixing three different colors of light: red, green, and blue. Imagine a simple scheme, with three different lights, each of which can be turned on or off, projecting onto a glass screen: We can create eight different colors based on the absence (0) or presence (1) of light sources R,G and B: R G B Color 0 0 0 Black 0 0 1 Blue 0 1 0 Green 0 1 1 Cyan 1 0 0 Red 1 0 1 Magenta 1 1 1 0 Yellow 1 White 1 Each of these colors can be represented as a bit vector of length 3, and we can apply Boolean operations to them. a. The complement of a color is formed by turning off the lights that are on and turning on the lights that are off. What would be the complement of each of the eight colors listed above? b. Describe the effect of applying Boolean operations on the following colors: Λ 1. Red(100) ^ Magenta(101)= Blue(001) 2. Bue(001) | Green(010)= 3. Yellow(100) & Cyan(011)= 2.[30 pts] Perform the following…
