Abstract

This paper explores the underlying issues in the development of an automatic Selective Door Opening (SDO) system. Five SDO systems are presented which are based on Trackside Beacons, Global Positioning System, Distance Measurement, Route Tracking, and Platform Detection technologies. These systems make improvements over the manual SDO system by reducing human involvement and therefore potential errors from the systems. Each of these SDO systems is examined for cost benefits by addressing issues including station infrastructure, system architecture, reliability, maintainability, safety, and development and operational costs.
