Abstract

For the purpose of improving the future domestic train control systems and securing interoperability, according to the global development trends of train control systems, it is presented that the test results of interoperability between wayside train control systems installed in existed line, and the onboard train control system. Due to the safety-critical characteristics of train systems, the site test in the section where the wayside equipment is installed may lead to a danger against safety. Therefore, by way of constructing a simulation environment of train control systems, the T/R data systems of the equipment for interoperability are confirmed and the interoperability test are obtained by applying these systems to onboard equipment.

Highlights

  • The domestic rail vehicle is made domestically by several firms, in case of train control systems, which is in charge of a rapid and safe passenger transfer, the multinational, multi-product products from foreign suppliers are introduced due to the characteristics of a market and the demand in variability etc

  • In case of any accident affecting to safety and convenience of passengers, it is hard to pinpoint the exact cause of an accident and take immediate countermeasure in reality In order to reduce maintenance costs and to accomplish performance improvement, there is a growing trend for train control systems to be changed from the fixed block systems based on track circuits to the virtual and the moving block systems based on ICT(Information and Communication Technology) radio communication systems[1,2,3,4,5,6,7]

  • We primarily present test contents and results to identify the interoperability between different kinds of TCS in order to meet such a global trend and the needs of the domestic technology development

Summary

Introduction

The domestic rail vehicle is made domestically by several firms, in case of train control systems (hereinafter referred to as "TCS"), which is in charge of a rapid and safe passenger transfer, the multinational, multi-product products from foreign suppliers are introduced due to the characteristics of a market and the demand in variability etc. In case of any accident affecting to safety and convenience of passengers, it is hard to pinpoint the exact cause of an accident and take immediate countermeasure in reality In order to reduce maintenance costs and to accomplish performance improvement, there is a growing trend for train control systems to be changed from the fixed block systems based on track circuits to the virtual and the moving block systems based on ICT(Information and Communication Technology) radio communication systems[1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. We performed the test by configuring test environments[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
