The speed sensor fusion of urban rail transit train speed ranging based on deep learning builds a user-friendly structure but it in-turn increases the risk of traffic that significantly challenges its safety and transportation efficacy. In order to improve the operation safety and transportation efficiency of urban rail transit trains, a train speed ranging system based on embedded multi-sensor information is proposed in this article. The status information of the train is acquired by the axle speed sensor and the Doppler radar speed sensor; however, the query transponder collects the status information of the train, and is used in the embedded system. Various other modules like adaptive correction, idling/sliding detection and compensation of speed transition/sliding are used in the proposed methodology to reduce the vehicle speed positioning errors due to factors such as wheel wear, idling, sliding, and environment. The results show that the running time of the train is 1000s, the output period of the axle speed sensor is 0.005s and the accelerometer output period is 0.01s. The output cycle of doppler radar is observed to be 0.1s, the output cycle of the transponder is 1s and the fusion period of the main filter is observed as 1s. The train speed ranging system of the embedded multi-sensor information fusion system proposed in this article can effectively improve the accuracy of the train speed positioning.
