EULYNX the Next Generation Signalling Strategy for Europe European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems EULYNX The next generation signalling strategy for Europe Signalling Seminar IRSE ITC – JR East Frans Heijnen 7 April 2016 With thanks to Maarten van der Werff What would you do? European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems Situation: • You are an infra manager (…. passenger, tax payer) • Expectations concerning signalling • Huge installed base • Many generations of equipment • Obsolete within 10..20 years • Not enough budget to replace And you know: “At all European railways these problems are similar …” EULYNX 2 What is the problem? European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems • Each railway project adds new assets to become obsolete again • They get overage sooner than expected • Costs depend on whoever was chosen in the past as the supplier of the system • There are potential savings but the railway is stuck with current solutions • But you don’t have a strategy for a new solution EULYNX 3 EULYNX. What is EULYNX? European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems EULYNX is the strategic approach for standardisation of signalling systems Because standardisation is a key factor to reduce: • A ‘technology zoo’ with many different systems, • The number of multiple incompatible interfaces • The cost involved in replacing and renewal EULYNX 4 The vision that becomes reality European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems By systems engineering and the development process • Use a common architecture • With a common apportionment of functionalities • Define standardised interfaces to connect systems and field elements • Closed, safe network based on open standard IT/telecom networks • Connect both interlockings and outside elements to those networks • Apply intelligent field elements for enhanced monitoring and diagnoses • For replacement of conventional interlockings, for renewals projects and • For smooth migration to ERTMS-compliant interlockings EULYNX 5 > 10 IM’s European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems Corporation in the signalling domain means sharing: • Know-how, • Innovations, Eulynx partner / related • Requirements, • Methods, processes, • Etc. to make standards freely available to third parties EULYNX 6 What does EULYNX mean for the market? European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems • Common developed standards and/or standards applied in tenders • Reusable by more railways • Not tailored to a specific railway design (COTS, IP, …) • Cooperation in innovation • Faster roll out instead of more development • More competition Source: http://www.slideshare.net/ihudhaif/philip-citreon-unife-presentation-mena-conference, October 2014 EULYNX 7 Cooperation Model European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems Interface to Interface to Cluster projects cluster projects Know-how Standard INPUT: • requirements, •specifications, Every partner may join • innovations, as many cluster projects • real developments, it deems appropriate • implementations 8 Example: Reference Architecture (1/3) European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems • The reference architecture is conditional to all the other Cluster Projects. • Is applicable for each of the partner IM’s • Support a system design that is based on technical main stream solutions used for instance in automation and telecommunication industry • Enables safe and secured closed and open networks • Supports a modular system concept with standardised interfaces • The separation of information and energy supply is basic • Contains an IP-network and a distributed power supply EULYNX 9 Example: Reference Architecture (2/3) Version 2.9 – 21.10.2015 European Initiative Linking Interlocking Subsystems Remote Maintenance Train command & control System Diagnostic System control SCI-CC SCI-CC OPC-UA OPC-UA OPC-UA Open Network EN 50159 (redundant) Direct SCI-CC SCI-CC SCI-CC SCI-TSS command SCI-ILS SCI-ILS SCI-ILS over SCI-CC OPC-UA OPC-UA Communication & Communication & Communication & Security Communication & Security Security Security Adjacent Trackworker RBC Electronic Interlocking Safety SCI-RBC Electr.

  • Balise Lifecheck the Control of Balises Is Mainly Manual and Often Basic
    utomation of Balise A maintenance Balise LifeCheck The control of balises is mainly manual and often basic. There are several tools available on the market to help performing balise maintenance, but a vast majority of them follow a corrective approach. ERTMS Solutions’ BaliseLifeCheck is the only on-board tool able to do predictive maintenance. he Tsolution • Compatibility with all balises’ and legacy KER balises (KVB, EBICAB,...) • Geolocalization of the balises and creation of a cartography • Detection of possible Big Metal Masses on the track that will affect BTM performances • Computation of a signature on measurements • Auto-marking on all balises matching signature • Generation of a full report after each test journey The BaliseLifeCheck is a preventive balise measurement instrument that can be used on both diagnostic and commercial trains. While capable of measuring balise, the BaliseLifeCheck is also highly customizable and can be set-up to deliver preventive maintenance to any ‘legacy’ Automatic Train Protection (ATP) balises, regardless if they are fitted or not with ERTMS. The Benefits On-board The system has been designed to be installed on-board a test or maintenance train which purpose is to analyze test tracks and active lines. Measurement It measures key electrical parameters of the up link signal and verifies if they comply with the requirements of Subset-036 in the case of ETCS balises. In this case some measurements/tests are performed against requirements of Subset-085. Diagnosis The main goal of the tool is to provide measurements and evidences which assess the correct behavior of balises that are already deployed on the field.

  • Travelling Virtual Balise for Etcs
    A. Filip, Int. J. Transp. Dev. Integr., Vol. 1, No. 3 (2017) 578–588 TRAVELLING VIRTUAL BALISE FOR ETCS A. FILIP Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, University of Pardubice, Czech Republic. ABSTRACT The railway industry has taken a great effort and is currently focused on exploitation of global naviga- tion satellite system (GNSS) for the European train control system (ETCS). It has been assessed that replacement of track balises, used for safe train location determination, with virtual balises (VBs) de- tected by means of GNSS will significantly reduce the track-side infrastructure and operational costs. However, this innovated ETCS can be put into operations only in the case when detection of VBs by means of GNSS will achieve the same safety integrity level (SIL 4) and availability as it is required for physical balise groups (BGs). This paper describes a novel travelling virtual balise (TVB) concept, which was proposed to meet the demanding ETCS safety requirements for GNSS using the existing European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) safety-of-life (SoL) service. The TVB concept profits from the basic feature of GNSS – i.e. the ability of abundant train position determination in GNSS service volume, which can- not be realized by current track balise groups (BGs) with a spacing of hundreds of metres or more. The frequent GNSS train positions are utilized for (1) fast diagnostics of on-board location determination system (LDS), (2) introduction of reactive fail-safety into LDS and (3) derivation and justification of the ETCS safety requirements for EGNOS. The TVB concept brings one significant advantage to ETCS in contrast to the static VBs – i.e.

Because of the vast territory and sparse population, transportation, emergency rescue, public security, surveying, the railways in China’s western region are designed as Low precise positioning, and many other industrial applications. The integration of BDS and an Inertial Navigation System (INS) has Density Lines (LDLs). The LDLs have the characteristics of the ability to achieve a more consistent and accurate positioning long mileage, low traffic volume, inadequate infrastructure, and solution. However, during long BDS outages, the performance of simple topology, normally operated as single track [1-2]. One such an integrated system degrades because of the characteristics example LDL is the Chinese Qinghai-Tibet railway, which is of the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) – the sensor errors located in mountainous area of the Tibet province and Qinghai accumulate rapidly with time when operated in a standalone province. Qinghai-Tibet railway is the highest and the longest mode. In this paper, a BDS/INS/odometer/map-matching (MM) positioning methodology for train navigation applications is plateau railway in the world, with more than 300km of proposed, to solve the problem of positioning during BDS outages depopulated zone at altitudes of more than 4000m above sea when trains pass through signal obstructed areas such as under level, see Figure 1.
