Definitions

  • the invention relates to a train control system on the basis of ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management System) and ETCS (European Train Control System) Level 2 with a RBC (Radio Block Center), which is connected to a signal box, to guide vehicles on a specific Section through permanent GSM-R (Global System for Mobile Communication railways) radio links between the RBC and the vehicles.
  • ERTMS European Rail Traffic Management System
  • ETCS European Train Control System
  • RBC Radio Block Center
  • ERTMS is the future system for the management and control of rail transport on the lines of the trans-European networks.
  • ERTMS consists of the subcomponents ETCS and GSM-R.
  • the ETCS realizes within the ERTMS the safe functions of train control.
  • GSM-R allows data transfer between the vehicles and the RBC. Among other things, position reports of the vehicle are sent to the RBC and driving permissions are sent to the vehicle.
  • the ETCS levels 0 through 3 are backwards compatible; H.
  • vehicles with Level 2 equipment can also drive on Level 1 equipped trains.
  • ETCS Level 1 builds on existing track infrastructure, with the information about the secured track, including the driving authorization with Eurobalises transmitted. At ETCS Level 2, the Eurobalises are no longer used to transmit information but only to locate the vehicle - electronic milestones -.
  • the ETCS calculator in the vehicle the determined location is forwarded via GSM-R to the RBC, which together with the signal box based on the route topography and projected bwz. temporarily entered speed limits determines the profiles of the secured track and transmits them to the vehicle via GSM-R.
  • GSM-R the ETCS vehicle computers and the RBC line center can communicate securely via GSM-R, ie protected against data corruption and data incompleteness.
  • the problem is that the constant exchange of information, especially regarding position report and driving permissions, between the ETCS vehicles and the RBC on permanent GSM-R connections the RBC computer so burdened that for performance reasons, only a very limited number of vehicles, for example 30, can be performed simultaneously. For more complex stations, heavily branched sections or for longer, highly frequented routes, the number of vehicles per RBC is often no longer sufficient. This is completely inadequate for the ETCS Level 2 equipment of track nodes. So far it is necessary to divide the vehicles on several RBCs. The disadvantage of this approach, in addition to the considerable hardware and software overhead especially the need for frequent handover, d. H. frequent change of competent RBC.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a train control system of the generic type, which allows the leadership of a larger number of vehicles.
  • the object is achieved in that the RBC has a route information mapping server and a plurality of vehicle information mapping clients, wherein the Server is connected to the interlocking and the clients are connected to the server and have GSM-R modules for wireless connections to vehicle devices associated vehicles.
  • the RBC conceptually does not have to consider relationships between the different vehicles it drives.
  • the vehicles can thus independently, d. H. without information exchange between the vehicles, on the basis of the route information displayed in the server - route image - out. Due to the known positions of the vehicles and the interlocking information about secured routes, the route map enables safe guidance of the vehicles, which ultimately prevents collisions.
  • Each client which maps the vehicle information - vehicle image - has access to the server information and can thus control the vehicles assigned to the client accordingly.
  • the software architecture is based on a strict separation between track image and vehicle image.
  • the route image is organized as a server for 1 to n vehicle images.
  • the n vehicle images are managed in n clients, each client having its own GSM-R module for EURORADIO communication with the associated vehicles.
  • the number of vehicles per vehicle image client can be different and easily adapted to the needs according to the vehicle density.
  • the total number of vehicles that can be driven by the scalable RBC can be increased almost arbitrarily by dividing the distance image and vehicle images.
  • the hardware and software effort is less than in the conventional increase in the number of RBCs known type. It is also advantageous that the frequency of necessary handovers can be reduced.
  • the route image server and the vehicle image clients can be instantiated on a common computer platform. Track image and vehicle image can also be instantiated on different computers, depending on the need for leading vehicles and available computer performance.
  • 1 to n vehicle image clients can independently run ETCS vehicles.
  • the server is connected according to claim 3 with at least one Bassenankoppelmodul.
  • ETCS level 1 Eurobalise groups - analogous to the GSM-R in ETCS level 2 - transmit the current information about the secured route and the driving authorization.
  • the balise docking module works as a client on the linkage image server, as does the vehicle image client of ETCS level 2, with the difference that the positions of the Eurobalise groups are fixed.
  • the balancing dock module controls 1 to n Eurobalise groups.
  • the Baliseankoppelmodul the track map server makes it possible to provide even complex route nodes with ETCS Level 1 information on a variety of actuators effectively. It can thus realize a multi-section signaling without adapting the existing outdoor facility.
  • the figure shows a schematic representation of the most important components of a claimed train control system.
  • An interlocking 1 is connected to an ERTMS / ETCS RBC 2, which via GSM-R radio links 3 with multiple ERTMS / ETCS vehicle devices 4 communicates.
  • the RBC 2 essentially consists of a route image server 5 and n vehicle image clients 6 1 to 6 n .
  • Each vehicle image client 6 1 to 6 n transmits travel authorization information to an assigned number of vehicles and receives quasi-permanent position reports from these vehicles.
  • the vehicle image client 6 1 communicates with k ERTMS / ETCS vehicle devices 7 1 to 7 k and the vehicle image client 6 n communicates with r ERTMS / ETCS vehicle devices 8 1 to 8 r .
  • each vehicle image client 6 1 to 6 n is connected to the route image server 5, which prepares interlocking information, in particular via the secured routes, for all vehicle image clients 6 1 to 6 n .
  • the consistent separation of the RBC architecture in the route image and the vehicle image results in a system that is scalable in terms of the number of vehicles to be driven and whose performance capacity can be easily adjusted and increased.
