Study on the Headway by ERTMS/ETCS On-board signal in Seoul-Shihung section

ERTMS/ETCS 차상신호에 따른 서울-시흥 구간 운전 시격 연구

The Present headway on KNR lines varies from 6 to 10 minutes depending on the each line. Therefore KNR would like to reduce the headway of the all lines by 4 minutes with the implementation of ERTMS/ECTS on-board system. With the operation of HSR lines in 2004 the bottleneck would be expected within a few sections such as Seoul-Siheung which will be the common route between KTX and conventional lines. This study will analyze and compare the optimal headway can be accomplished by the ATS trackside and that of ETRMS/ETCS on-board system within the Seoul-Siheung section.
