Abstract
The communication-based train control (CBTC) technology is a kind of railway signaling technologies and is to control the train operation through communication. A project adopting the CBTC technology is in progress and its object is to develop interoperable and interchangeable subsystems. Thus the purpose of this paper is on how to develop the required subsystems and integrate them successfully without sufficient design information at the system level. Accordingly this project shall require the integration and test at the system level. In order to do so, a top-level system specification shall be needed, which is not available in the current phase of the project. The main objective of the test and evaluation activities is to see whether the developed system meets the system specification. In this paper, we describe how the test and evaluation can be carried out based on the subsystems design specifications, considering the system architecture and the operation concept of the existing system as well.
