Abstract

The Safety Transmission Unit(STU) is a critical device used in railway systems to ensure safe and efficient operations by providing communication between trains and railway infrastructure. It is responsible for transmitting vital information and commands, allowing for the control and coordination of train movements. The STU plays a crucial role in maintaining the safety of passengers, crew, and the overall railway network. This paper presents the design and testing of a STU for the next-generation wireless-based train control system. An analysis of european and domestic standards was conducted to review requirements and ensure the design of a STU for the train control system meets international standards. Based on this analysis, hardware and software designs were developed to create an internationally recognized level of safety for the communication device. To verify the functionality of the STU, a simulator was developed, and it was confirmed that the designed features were successfully implemented.

안전전송장치는 열차와 철도 시설 간에 통신을 제공하여 안전하고 효율적인 운영을 보장해야 하는 철도 시스템에서 사용되는 중요한 장치이다. 본 논문에서는 무선통신기반 차세대 열차제어시스템의 안전전송장치를 설계하고 시험하였다. 유럽규격과 국내규격을 분석하고 요구사항을 검토하여 국제적 수준의 안전전송장치의 HW 설계와 SW를 설계하여 제작하였다. 안전전송장치의 기능을 검증하기 위하여 시뮬레이터를 제작하여 설계된 기능이 구현되고 있는 것을 확인하였다.
