Abstract

A control system may include a modulator device that may receive a control signal for changing a traction operation or a braking operation of a vehicle system formed from one or more vehicles. The modulator device may generate an electric modulator signal based on the control signal and may control an actuator using the modulator signal to create an acoustic signal for propagation within a conduit extending along the vehicle system. The system also may include a transducer device that may detect the acoustic signal propagated in the conduit and generate an electric transducer signal based on the acoustic signal. The system may include a demodulator device that may control one or more of a traction device or a braking device to implement the control signal based on the transducer signal that is received.
