This paper describes an algorithm that enables a railway vehicle to determine its position in a track network. The system is based solely on onboard sensors such as a velocity sensor and a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) sensor and does not require trackside infrastructure such as axle counters or balises. The paper derives a probabilistic modeling of the localization task and develops a sensor fusion approach to fuse the inputs of the GNSS sensor and the velocity sensor with the digital track map. We describe how we can treat ambiguities and stochastic uncertainty adequately. Moreover, we introduce the concept of virtual balises that can be used to replace balises on the track and evaluate the approach experimentally. This paper focuses on an accurate modeling of sensor and estimation uncertainties, which is relevant for safety critical applications.
