Development of Wireless Communication based Train Separation Control Simulator

무선통신기반 열차간격제어 시뮬레이터 개발

The train control is a facility to ensure safe train operation, and its safety is the most important factor to determine whether introduced in railway authorities. Therefore, in order to improve practical usability in the business, safety analysis and evaluation of train control system and train control related core technologies are needed. In this paper, we develop wireless communication based train separation control simulator, the simulator traces trains in real-time, and produces train movement authorities with their position and speed information, and then calculates static and dynamic speed profiles. Trains in the simulator are controlled in real-time by these profiles. In the paper, simulator configuration, train control algorithm and simulation results under simulated environment are presented.
