According to the method provided by the embodiment of the application, all the direct relation trains of the train are obtained, the train control information of the direct relation trains is obtained, the running behavior of the train is controlled according to the train control information of the direct relation trains, the purpose of the autonomous management of the running behavior of the train is achieved, the running behavior is managed by a ground control center without the help of trackside equipment, the communication with the ground control center is reduced, the arrangement of the trackside equipment is effectively reduced, and the operation and maintenance cost of the train is reduced.
The methods provided in the examples of the present application are further illustrated below:
in an exemplary embodiment, said determining all direct relationship trains of the train comprises:

The inventor finds that, during the running of a train, other straight tracks may converge on a straight track where a route passes, and trains on the other straight tracks share the same track with the train after the tracks converge, so that the running states of the trains also affect the running state of the train.
In an exemplary embodiment, the straight stock search specifically comprises the following steps:
b1: taking the track section where the train runs acquired in advance as a search starting point,
b2: taking the initial straight strand search direction as a search direction;

For the step B4, two cases are specifically included:
1. the search is stopped when the direct relationship train has been searched before the end track section in the straight direction is not searched, which is the case without recording the connected switch information of the track section that has not been searched.
2. When the end track in the straight direction is searched, all the turnout information passed by all the track sections in all the straight directions needs to be recorded.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of Direct Relationship Train (DRT) search in the road network system provided in the present application. As shown in fig. 4, the target communication train is determined by the relative positional relationship of the trains, and the positional relationship of the trains on the road network can be classified into a Direct Relationship Train (DRT), an Indirect Relationship Train (IRT), and a non-relationship train (NRT). The train only establishes communication with the DRT of the train, and information such as transmission speed, position and the like is used for MA calculation. Therefore, it is confirmed that the DRT of the own vehicle is one of the core functions of the CBTC system based on vehicle-to-vehicle communication.
The definition of a DRT train is: the train has a direct connection relationship with the host vehicle in the undirected graph. The undirected graph means that the default operation direction of the track is not considered, only the topological connection relation of the track is considered, such as 6 vehicles and 7 vehicles in fig. 4, although the communication of the vehicles needs to undergo the turn-back, the vehicles are judged to be DRT trains because no other train exists between the two vehicles. As another example, 6 cars and 12 cars experience three switches but should be judged as DRT trains since there are no other trains between them. In summary, the judgment principles of DRT, IRT, NRT are summarized as follows:
DRT: the train which can be connected with the vehicle is a DRT regardless of the direction;
IRT: a DRT train (excluding the vehicle) of the DRT trains is an IRT train of the vehicle;
NRT: a train that is neither the host vehicle DRT nor the host vehicle IRT.
Taking the road network shown in fig. 4 as an example, the DRT train of each train in the road network is shown in the following table:
host vehicle ID Corresponding DRT train ID set

3. And (3) turnout searching: and recording the ID of the turnout passing through the search according to the straight stock search result, and finding out the track section (point rail, straight rail or bent rail) of the turnout area which is not searched according to the electronic map to be used as the initial track section of the straight stock search in the next period.
4. And alternately carrying out straight stock search and turnout search until all accessible track sections are traversed.

A Vehicle On-Board Controller (VOBC) is a computer-based system that supervises the operation of a train based On an On-Board electronic map and information exchanged with a ground subsystem. The VOBC includes two main functional modules of train automatic driving (ATO) and train automatic protection (ATP). In a CBTC (communication based train control and train control) system based on train-train communication, a train-mounted system bears main train control responsibility, and the functions of calculating a mobile authorization MA (MA) by an original ground controller ZC and planning a path by an ATS (automatic train control system) are realized by a VOBC (voice over cellular), so that a decentralized and autonomous control concept is realized. Compared with the CBTC system in the related technology, the regional controller is not reserved any more, the original ATS function is greatly simplified, and therefore the quantity and complexity of ground equipment are greatly reduced.
3. Floor equipment
As the main functions of the ground equipment in the CBTC system in the related technology are realized by VOBC, the original ground equipment is greatly simplified, and only part of ATS functions, necessary interlocking functions, communication functions and the like are reserved. The main ground equipment is as follows:
a)ATS
the ATS subsystem is a distributed real-time computer monitoring system, is used as a subway operation driving command center, and plays a role in assisting a dispatcher to compile an operation plan and supervise the execution of the plan. Its business content includes 3 main aspects: planning, monitoring and adjusting, and in addition, auxiliary functions such as statistical analysis, vehicle segment maintenance, etc.
b) Control server OCS (object control server)
The OCS is a computer-based system that generates messages to be sent to the train based on information received from the ATS subsystem and information exchanged with the onboard subsystem. The primary purpose of these messages is to provide trackside device control commands and status such as switches, semaphores, PSDs, etc.
In addition, the OCS also implements functions similar to interlocking, which mainly include: and executing a switch control command sent by the VOBC, a section blocking command sent by the ATS, a temporary speed limit command sent by the ATS and other commands.
The OCS reports the road network resource state (whether a section is occupied or not, whether a section has a fault or not and the like) to the ATS; the road network resource status (whether the switch has been locked, section temporary speed limit, etc.) is sent to the VOBC.
c) Data storage unit DSU
The data storage unit DSU is a configurable unit of the CBTC system, and each subsystem can identify whether the DSU is currently configured or not through means of configuration files, system parameters and the like, and carries out corresponding processing. The data storage unit can store the vehicle-mounted electronic map of the local line and the interconnection line, check the data version after the VOBC is electrified, and if the check fails, the vehicle-mounted equipment downloads the data and the ground equipment cannot complete initialization.
d)MSS
The subsystem of the train automatic control system monitors and records the maintenance information of other subsystems in the system, assists the fault analysis of the system and is used for the daily operation maintenance of the system
e)DCS
The DCS is composed of a vehicle-ground wireless communication system special for a signal system and a signal track bypass communication backbone network, and provides continuous and bidirectional communication for each subsystem in the signal system.
f) Transponder
Transponders are transmission devices that can transmit messages to a subsystem in a vehicle, which, based on the existing european transponder (Euro-Balise) specification, provides the possibility of transmitting messages uplink, i.e. from the ground to the vehicle. The transponder can provide a fixed message, or a variable message when connected to a trackside electronic unit (LEU); the application may be performed in groups, each query transponder transmitting a message, the combination of all messages constituting the message transmitted by the group of transponders.
g) Trackside electronic unit LEU
The trackside electronic unit LEU is an electronic device that generates the messages to be transmitted by the transponders from the information received from the CBI subsystem.
h) Track circuit/recording shaft
The method is used for the occupancy check of the train.
ATC System Functions
The ATC system realizes automatic control and protection of the train and mainly comprises an ATP subsystem and an ATO subsystem, wherein:
the ATP subsystem is responsible for ensuring the running safety of the train and preventing dangerous conditions such as collision, overspeed and the like from occurring in the running process, and has the main functions of continuously detecting and positioning the train, ensuring that the train does not cross barriers in running, ensuring that the speed of the train does not exceed the maximum safe speed, ensuring the interlocking condition between the train and a train door, a turnout, a platform door and the like;
the ATO subsystem ATO is in charge of controlling the high-efficiency and low-energy-consumption operation of the train under the protection of ATP, and has the main functions of ensuring that the train arrives and departs at a station regularly, ensuring that the train stops at the station accurately, and controlling the stop, the stop-taking, the jump-stopping and the like of the train according to the operation requirement.
Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of an ATC system provided in the present application. As shown in fig. 9, the vehicle-vehicle communication system architecture has not changed significantly, and the vehicle-mounted subsystem still needs to acquire necessary vehicle control information from the ground subsystem through the DCS subsystem; compared with the existing CBTC system, the vehicle-vehicle communication CBTC system adds a communication interface with VOBC on other vehicles, thereby realizing the mutual transmission of important vehicle control information such as train position, speed and the like between different trains. From the functional architecture, the control core of the vehicle-vehicle communication CBTC system is transferred to the vehicle-mounted ATP from the ground control center, the vehicle control strategy is determined by the vehicle-mounted ATP, and the ground equipment only plays an auxiliary role in executing instructions.
In the related technology, the CBTC system realizes train operation control by means of two-way communication of vehicle-mounted and ground equipment, and the main flow is as follows: after the vehicle-mounted equipment completes positioning through the ground beacon equipment, the vehicle-mounted equipment sends the self positioning to the area controller; the regional controller calculates the movement authorization length of each train according to the received position information of all trains in the jurisdiction and sends the movement authorization length to the corresponding train; and the vehicle-mounted equipment calculates a speed control curve according to the received movement authorization length of the zone controller, and controls the safe running of the train according to the speed control curve.
In the embodiment of the application, the vehicle-mounted equipment of the CBTC system based on vehicle-vehicle communication needs to independently complete the functions of train positioning, movement authorization calculation, speed curve calculation and the like, and does not depend on ground equipment to calculate the movement authorization. In order to realize the function, the current train-mounted equipment needs to know the position and speed information of a train nearby, so the concept of train-to-train communication is introduced. The speed and position information of other trains required by the vehicles is transmitted through the communication between the vehicles so as to meet the requirement of safe vehicle control. Therefore, the CBTC system based on vehicle-vehicle communication needs to realize the following core functions:
a) confirmation target communication train
As shown in fig. 6, the target communication train is determined by the relative position relationship of the train, and the driving path planning module of the ATP of the train automatic protection system of the vehicle-mounted VOBC searches for the Direct Relationship Train (DRT) in the road network system, where the specific Direct Relationship Train (DRT) search has been described in detail in the foregoing, and is not described here again.
b) Dynamic path planning
According to the decentralized design concept, the driving paths of the train are not distributed by the ATS any more, and the on-board controller VOBC of the train is changed to automatically and dynamically plan according to the current position and the destination position of the train and the current state of a road network. The path planning is calculated by a driving path planning module of an ATP system of a train automatic protection system of a vehicle-mounted VOBC, and the specific path planning calculation is also discussed in detail in the foregoing, which is not described in detail again.
c) Vehicle-mounted VOBC (video object controller) for completing MA (movement authorization) calculation and train movement authorization range calculation
And the driving path planning module of the automatic protection system ATP of the vehicle-mounted VOBC finishes the calculation of the path planning, and the calculation process of the path planning is as described in the foregoing, and is not repeated in detail.
The road network resource management module of the ATP system for automatically protecting the vehicle-mounted VOBC completes calculation of the expected movement authorization range and the actual movement authorization range of the train, and the calculation of the movement authorization range is specifically described in detail above and is not described in detail again.
The technical advantages of the accuracy of vehicle-to-vehicle communication based on an onboard controller are specifically analyzed and explained as follows:
in practical application, vehicle-to-vehicle communication can be realized through a CBTC system based on satellite positioning, the positioning of a train still depends on trackside equipment, the transmission of the running state of the train still depends on vehicle-to-ground or vehicle-to-vehicle two-way communication, and partial trackside equipment still needs to exist, such as a shaft recorder, a transponder, an interlock and the like. The CBTC system based on satellite positioning can reduce the use of trackside equipment in the train control system to the maximum extent theoretically. Through satellite positioning, the train can acquire the position information of the train, and mutually transmits the speed, the position and other information of the train through train-train communication, so that a train-train communication CBTC system based on satellite positioning is realized. However, the current satellite positioning technology and satellite communication technology are not sufficient to support the above design solutions, mainly because of the following reasons:
1. the precision of satellite positioning is not sufficient
The accuracy of satellite positioning is directly related to whether the train can obtain accurate position information. The precision of the most advanced satellite positioning can reach 2.5 to 5 meters at present, but the most advanced satellite positioning method is not popularized and used yet. The general positioning accuracy is about 10 to 100 meters, and the floating range is large, so that the method is not suitable for train positioning. The conventional CBTC system vehicle-mounted equipment can automatically calibrate the position when passing through a ground beacon, so that the positioning precision is ensured to meet the system requirement. The satellite positioning requires that a vehicle-mounted system positions the current position of the train on the track by combining positioning coordinates and an electronic map, and has higher requirement on satellite positioning precision; meanwhile, the specification of the vehicle-mounted map in the related art cannot meet the positioning requirement, and a new vehicle-mounted map standard (a vehicle-mounted map based on a coordinate position) needs to be formulated. Therefore, the application of the satellite positioning technology in the train control system is difficult.
2. Satellite communication has insufficient stability and rate
Satellite positioning cannot guarantee communication uncertainty, is greatly influenced by factors such as environmental climate and the like, is also related to the operation period of a positioning satellite, and is not suitable for being used as an information communication network of a safety critical system. Meanwhile, due to uncertainty of communication delay, a vehicle-mounted system needs to be combined with a speed sensor of the vehicle to calibrate a satellite positioning result, processing logic is complex, and application difficulty of a satellite positioning technology is increased.
3. Satellite positioning and communication are affected by terrain
Satellite positioning is only suitable for railway systems (such as a Qinghai-Tibet line) built in open areas above the ground, but not suitable for railway systems in subways or complex terrains (such as mountainous areas), so that application scenes are greatly limited.
After the technical analysis of satellite positioning, the following description will be made of the advantages of the vehicle-vehicle communication based system (hereinafter referred to as the present system) provided by the present application:
first, the positioning accuracy of the present system is high because:
1. the system is positioned by the ground beacon equipment which is strict SIL4 equipment, and the positioning precision is higher;
2. the positioning of the system is not influenced by the earth celestial motion, and the positioning stability is high;
3. the positioning of the system does not depend on a wireless communication network and is not influenced by wireless communication delay, so the accuracy is higher.
Secondly, the application scenario of the system is wider than that of a satellite positioning system, because:
1. the satellite positioning system is only suitable for railway systems (such as a Qinghai-Tibet line) constructed on broad and monotonous terrains due to the characteristics of the satellite positioning technology;
2. the rail transit systems such as urban tramcars, subways and the like are not suitable for satellite positioning systems at present;
3. for the rail transit system with a complex road network structure, the satellite positioning system has risks in application; for example, switches where trains are located cannot be accurately identified.
Compared with satellite positioning, the precision of data acquisition of the vehicle-mounted controller is superior to that of satellite positioning, and the vehicle-mounted controller is a core component of the train control system, is obviously superior to a satellite positioning system in stability and data transmission rate, is not influenced by terrain, can establish stable data communication with a direct relation train, and ensures stable, rapid and accurate data transmission.
Compared with the conventional CBTC system, the CBTC system based on vehicle-vehicle communication has the following advantages:
1. great trackside reduction equipment
Since the system no longer relies on the ground area controller to calculate the authorized range of movement of the train, the trackside equipment is reduced to only the object control unit (for controlling switches), ATS, and beacon equipment (axletree or track circuit) for location. The ground equipment is greatly simplified, and the control logic is greatly simplified, so that the manufacturing cost and the operation and maintenance cost of the system are greatly reduced.
2. Smaller tracking interval
Because the speed and the position information can be mutually transmitted between the vehicles in the vehicle-vehicle communication CBTC system, the train can use a 'soft wall collision' principle during tracking, namely, the current speed of the front vehicle can be used under the condition that the target speed corresponding to the movement authorization terminal of the rear train is allowed under the condition, and the constant-speed tracking between the vehicles is realized.
3. Decentralization feature
In the related art, the CBTC system controls the operation of trains by using a movement authority calculated for each train, centering on a zone controller on the ground. The architecture has the advantages that the road network resources can be comprehensively managed, and the optimized resource allocation is made; the disadvantage is that a large amount of trackside equipment is needed, and the important responsibility of the area controller control center is that once a fault occurs, the whole road network is easy to break down. In addition, the centralized architecture requires the ground equipment and the vehicle-mounted equipment to operate cooperatively, and the control logic is complex. The CBTC system based on the vehicle-vehicle communication adopts a decentralized design concept, the vehicle-mounted equipment autonomously plans a driving path, an MA and a speed control curve are autonomously calculated, the control logic is greatly simplified, and the calculation resources are fully utilized. Meanwhile, as the 'control center' is not provided, the application scene of the whole set of control system is greatly expanded, and the control system can be flexibly applied to different types of railway systems, such as subways, light rails, trams and the like.

In a hardware implementation, the division between functional modules/units mentioned in the above description does not necessarily correspond to the division of physical components; for example, one physical component may have multiple functions, or one function or step may be performed by several physical components in cooperation.
