This paper analyzes the performance of voice-over-Internet protocol (VoIP) services in terms of the system throughput, the packet delay, and the signaling overhead in a mobile WiMAX system with a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) mechanism. Furthermore, a queueing analytical model is developed with due consideration of adaptive modulation and coding, the signaling overhead, and the retransmissions of erroneous packets. The arrival process is modeled as the sum of the arrival rate at the initial transmission queue and the retransmission queue, respectively. The service rate is calculated by taking the HARQ retransmissions into consideration. This paper also evaluates the performance of VoIP services in a mobile WiMAX system with and without persistent allocation; persistent allocation is a technique used to reduce the signaling overhead for connections with a periodic traffic pattern and a relatively fixed payload. As shown in the simulation results, the HARQ mechanism increases the system throughput as well as the signaling overhead and the packet delay.

In part I, we studied only step speed control for train, the second part extended to beacon signaling system and moving block system. With the calculated braking distance in part I, part II showed how to reduce headway using the beacon signaling system and moving block system, revealed that the beacon system has a braking distance advantage for sighting allowance with compared to step speed control, proposed beacon installation interval and revealed the braking distance with moving block system being nearly approached to train pure braking distance. We compared three different train control system to decide the best signaling system for a given condition and obtained the result that three systems have a same headway near 10～13 steps speed control.

This paper is about the study on the failure mode identification of railway signaling embedded system thru which quantitative reliability and safety can be compared reciprocally. Frequency of each failure mode makes possible to compare the reliability of each system and frequency of dangerous failure is used as the measurement standards for system safety. Therefore, this paper provides both reliability-related failure mode and safety-related failure mode by modeling the railway signaling embedded system.

The performance requirements on the safety-based functionality of railway signal systems have been reinforced and the effort for enhancement of the existing system or development of the new system is being accordingly made. In particular, various technical researches on replacement or improvement of the existing ATS(Automatic Train Stop) signaling system are now in progress for better operational efficiency. In this study, the complementary points for improvement or replacement of the currently used system(i.e., ATS) will be derived in terms of operating efficiency in an integrated operating environment with the newly introduced system(e.g., ATC: Automatic Train Control). This study can contribute to derive the need for improvement of the signaling system by checking the interface problems and comparing between different systems through the analysis of real operation cases in the field. Eventually, this analysis can be applied to prevent and estimate the collision accidents can be caused by the failure of the signaling system in advance. In addition, the results can be used to provide a future direction to secure the reliability in the parallel operation by integration based on different railway signaling systems.

According to the computerization of railway signaling systems, the interface link between the signaling systems has been replaced by the digital communication channel. At the same time, the importance of the communication link is more pronounced than before. In this paper, new Network-based protocol between railway signaling and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system) has designed and the overview of designed protocol is briefly represented. And also this paper addresses analysis of newly designed train control systems. Fame error rates of the data transmissions are calculated and compared for the two cases that the CTC (Centralized Traffic Control)/SCADA has an extra data transmission error control (CRC16) besides the inherent error control of the Ethernet and that the CTC/SCADA has no extra data transmission error control. With simulation results it has been verified that the additional error control code contributes to lowering the frame error rate. It will be expected to increase the safety, reliability and efficiency of maintenance of the signaling systems by using the designed protocol for railway signaling system.

Technical advancement in the field of world-class railway has brought the development of passenger safety, efficient operation and fast passenger service. The study of the railway speed-up has been progressed for a long time. As for the speed-up of trunkline railways, its design work has already promoted in some railway tacks and some track sections has already been under construction. In such a perspective we should review if the domestic signaling system is the optimal system and figure out the trend of signaling system for the speed-up that is recently applied over the world. In this way learning about justification and futurition, we should secure the national competitiveness in the long term and review the system available to international exports. Further, it is important to apply the result to the research project currently being pursued. In addition, predicting the recent international trends, we should show the direction of the future-oriented and economic signaling system.

The Maglev travels at levitated status from the rail in some gab (about $8\sim10mm$). it make difference with the existing subway or the another LRV. The detection method of the train speed and the train position to be used at Maglev's signaling system differ with the existing subway or the another LRV's. so, the signal system construction of the new method is necessary. This paper describes the configuration and characteristic of the total signaling system (TTC/Wayside/Cab/Guide way system etc.) developed for Maglev, and the design concept of the signaling system based on the latest wireless LAN communication for driverless operation.

According to the computerization of railway signalling systems. the communication protocol for interface between these systems are required. Therefore the new communication protocol for railway signaling system is required. Generally, there are two verification method for new designed protocol in the industrial and academic fields. One is the laboratory testing method which is very popular and general technique. In our research the comparison between existing and new designed protocol for signaling is described and the verification test results are also represented. From these laboratory test, we are verified the conformance of new designed protocol. Another method is verified by formal method. The format verification method is widely used at safety-critical system design but this approach is nor popular at verification communication protocol. However it is very important to verify the safety of new designed protocol for railway signaling system because signaling systems are very safety-critical systems. So, the methodology for formal verification of designed protocol is also reviews in this paper.
