It assists in optimization of metro infrastructure investment and running of efficient train services on the network. 11.2 SIGNALLING AND TRAIN CONTROL 11.2.1 Overview Metro carries large number of passengers at a very close headway requiring a very high level of safety enforcement and reliability. At the same time heavy investment in infrastructure and rolling stock necessitates optimization of its capacity to provide the best services to the public. These requirements of the metro are planned to be achieved by adopting ‘CATC’ (Continuous Automatic Train Control System) based on “CBTC” (Communication based Train Control System) which includes ATP (Automatic Train Protection), ATO (Automatic Train Operation) and ATS (Automatic Train Supervision) sub-systems using radio communication between Track side and Train. This will: • Provide high level of safety with trains running at close headway ensuring continuous safe train separation and for bidirectional working. • Eliminate accidents due to driver passing Signal at Danger by continuous speed monitoring and automatic application of brake in case of disregard of signal / warning by the driver. • Provides safety and enforces speed limit on section having permanent and temporary speed restrictions. • Improve capacity with safer and smoother operations.

  • Enhanced ETCS L2/L3 Train Control System
    Advanced Train Control Systems 113 Enhanced ETCS_L2/L3 train control system D. Emery Laboratory for Intermodality and Transport Planning (LITEP), École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland Abstract The last decade has seen the development of the European Train Control System ERTMS/ETCS. This Automatic Train Protection system (ATP) was designed in three versions: ETCS_Level 1, 2 and 3. ETCS_Level_3 uses moving blocks and provides short headways. However, ETCS_Level 2 may also offer short headways provided suitable length of each block sections. The proposed train control system could be seen as an enhancement of ETCS-Level 2 or Level 3. The main advantage of this new control system is to provide shorter headways than ETCS can. This offers the potential for capacity increases, particularly for busy High Speed Lines (HSL). Keywords: ATP, braking curves, capacity, ETCS, ERTMS, headway, high speed line (HSL), interlocking, moving block, Semi-Automatic Train Operation (SATO). 1 Interoperability, safety and capacity with ETCS 1.1 ETCS for interoperability and safety The European Train Control System was firstly developed to offer to the European Rail community a common Automatic Train Protection system in replacement of the existing ones.

In the decision railway corridor Utrecht-Den Bosch, each over three signalling making of implementing ETCS, several factors have been of configurations to find the effect of in-cab signalling and reduced block section lengths on resilience. Furthermore, the place of relevance, such as the need for replacement on a corridor, resilience in decision making and design of railway signalling the cost of the replacement, the capacity and safety benefits, has been investigated. and international interoperability. On the more practical side, Although resilience is only one of the factors in the decision during the design and engineering phase of an ETCS-corridor, making and design of ETCS-projects, besides factors such as most of the same factors are of importance on how to convert capacity, safety and interoperability, a quantification of resilience can help to either compare alternatives on all factors including from the legacy system to ETCS. For example, a larger budget resilience, to compare alternatives on resilience only, or to find can lead to a design where the block sections lengths can be the relation between design choices and resilience. adapted, creating more capacity and resilience. Simulation of seven disrupted traffic scenarios has shown that Resilience is another factor which is potentially relevant using in-cab signalling with ETCS L2 compared to line-side in the decision making.

  • The Influence of Railway Signalling Characteristics on Resilience
    The influence of railway signalling characteristics on resilience Rogier Jakob Simons 4732839 Master thesis - Transport, Infrastructure and Logistics Supervisors: Prof. dr. R.M.P. Goverde (TU Delft, Chair) Dr. ir. E. Quaglietta (TU Delft) Dr. W.W. Veeneman (TU Delft) Ing. R. Koops (Arcadis) To be defended on: 25-11-2019 Superfluous text to set the next chapter to the next page Summary Currently, the railway signalling system ETCS is being implemented Europe wide. This is expected to bring benefits with respect to safety, capacity and interoperability. Resilience is another factor that is likely to be increased with the coming of ETCS. The design of the signalling system affects the resilience, next to the available infrastructure, the timetable and the quality of the contingency plans. This research focuses on the resilience of railway signalling characteristics and its impact on the design and implementation of future ETCS projects. The aim of this research is multiple. Firstly, it aims to set up a method to test and quantify the resilience of railway signalling characteristics. Subsequently, it aims at comparing the current Dutch signalling system, NS'54/ATB, to the new standard for signalling in the Netherlands, ETCS Level 2. Secondly, it aims at finding the stakeholders in the railway sector that are interested in increased resilience, and those that have the power to increase the resilience of the railway system. And lastly, it aims at creating a method which can support the decision-making around and design of ETCS projects. To accomplish these aims, several distinctive methods have been applied. Literature review has been used (1) to identify the proper performance indicators for resilience, (2) to find the relevant signalling characteristics with respect to resilience, (3) to see the role of simulation in decision making, and (4) to find common disruptions and disruption management strategies in the Nether- lands.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND ABSTRACT In this report I detail how I have investigated the feasibility of producing a systems engineering framework that can be applied to all forms of Railway Control & Safety (RCS) systems in order to simplify their development, delivery and implementation. Based on this research, I propose two simple models that can be used to model conventional signalling, ERTMS, CBTC and PTC systems; a functional model and a physical model. I have looked into how these models can be utilised to model specific systems and how this can then be used to identify the high-level functionality and interfaces of individual sub-systems across different physical locations and organisations. I go on to propose a simple method to keep track of individual sub- system locations and their high-level functionality. I also propose how the functional model can be represented as a negative-feedback control system.

  • Railway Signalling Principles

Jörn Pachl, FIRSE Professor of railway systems engineering at Technische Universität Braunschweig Braunschweig, June 2020 https://doi.org/10.24355/dbbs.084-202006161443-0 Railway Signalling Principles 3 PREFACE Railway signalling systems are complex control systems. As a result of the long railway histo- ry, there are a lot of specific national solutions based on different technologies. The key to learn how signalling systems work is to understand the fundamental control principles these systems are based on. By definition, the signaling principles are the underlying principles of a signalling-based safeworking system that are based on the national standards but are inde- pendent of the requirements of a specific railway operating company and of the technology used. This E-book explains the fundamental principles all railway signalling systems have in com- mon. It is done in a generic way that does not focus on specific national solutions. The inten- tion is to provide core knowledge of long-term value that will not be outdated just by the next generation of technology. The content of this E-book is based on the long-standing experi- ence of teaching railway operations and signalling at universities and higher vocational train- ing institutions in different parts of the world.

The “European Train Control System” ETCS supervises train movement in regards to speed and distance travelled, based on information provided by an underlying signalling system . ETCS consists of onboard and trackside subsystems performing standardised functions and are communicating via Eurobalise, Euroloop and GSM-R using standardised protocols . ETCS provides full cab signalling and can be used either as an overlay onto classical signalling systems with lineside signals or without them . The term ERTMS is used when referring to ETCS and GSM-R as one system . ETCS has been developed to replace all existing mainline train control systems in Europe © Siemens AG 2012 page 4 Wildenrath, 17 February 2012 Infrastructure & Cities Sector, Mobility and Logistics What ETCS is .
