Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for the management of resources, in particular of locomotives, which operate in a rail network and communicate over a cellular network, in particular a working according to the GSM or UMTS specifications cellular mobile network.
  • Extensive management systems are available for planning the use of resources in railway engineering. For the optimal operation of the resources it is important that the planning is kept as exact as possible or that any deviations are detected and taken into account at an early stage.
  • a train control system based on ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management System) and ETCS (European Train Control System) Level 2 with a RBC (Radio Block Center) is for example in [1], EP 1 897 781 A2 , described.
  • the RBC which is connected to an interlocking, is used to guide vehicles on a certain stretch of section by means of wireless connections via the GSM-R (Global System for Mobile Communication Railways) mobile radio network.
  • GSM-R Global System for Mobile Communication Railways
  • the ETCS realizes the safe functions of train control.
  • GSM-R enables data transmission between vehicles and the RBC. For example, position reports of the vehicle are sent to the RBC and ride permits to the vehicle.
  • the mission data can therefore be updated whenever contacts are made to the selectively installed Eurobalises.
  • Another disadvantage of the existing system is that several complex systems, such as GSM-R, ETCS and interlocking systems, are required for the determination of the information. It is not ensured that the coverage of the route network with Eurobalises is sufficient to locate all locomotives. The realization of the required coverage of the route network with Eurobalises, however, is associated with considerable effort.
  • the ETCS is usually not nationwide in the railway network available and often combined with other, mostly older train control systems.
  • the Swiss railway network also implements the AFI (Automatic Vehicle Identification) system, a proprietary RFID system with RFID readers, which are usually installed at junctions.
  • AFI Automatic Vehicle Identification
  • RFID readers which are usually installed at junctions.
  • the distance between RFID readers is typically about 25 km. Due to the large distances of the RFID readers and often very short distances, many trains in freight traffic do not overrun these RFID readers and therefore will not be used by the AFI system recorded and not updated in the scheduling system used for locomotives.
  • Satellite-based systems such as the GPS, provide accurate positioning information.
  • the coupling of these systems with the systems of railway engineering allows to locate suitably equipped train units in areas that are not covered or subterranean. In countries with larger tunnel systems, the use of the GPS system would therefore be called into question.
  • the transmission and assignment of the position data supplied by the GPS system, eg from the locomotives, to the data of a railway management system would also be a considerable expense.
  • a method should be specified, which allows at least the positions of resources, in particular locomotives, and preferably also their assignment to a train or train run or sections thereof, to be reliably determined with reduced effort.
  • the position data should be able to be detected reliably and with sufficient accuracy for all resources, even if the routes are only short and if necessary tunnels are traversed.
  • a method should be specified, which allows to reliably determine the affiliation of resources to a train.
  • rail vehicles of other railway companies should be included in the administration without additional effort.
  • vehicles of the railway company are to be managed, which operate in rail networks of other operators.
  • the method is used to manage each provided with a mobile terminal resources, in particular of locomotives that operate in a rail network and are each registered by a mobile terminal functional at a cellular mobile network, which provided for the operation of the rail network functions, such as the functional registration of participants , provides.
  • the administrative unit can thus compare the current position data of the selected resources with the planning data and determine deviations.
  • the functional registration takes place on the GSM-R mobile network of the rail network.
  • the resources or functional units assigned to the train register with the mobile radio network GSM-R and are registered.
  • the staff of the locomotives are assigned the function numbers "01" to "05".
  • the train personnel are assigned the function numbers "10" to "19”.
  • the train drivers use for registration the usually fixed in the locomotives installed mobile terminals, which are referred to as cab radios.
  • the train driver or the locomotive is assigned the function number "01”.
  • the train driver logs on with the function number "01” and the assigned train number.
  • the number MSISDN of the cab radio is unique and the locomotive number permanently assigned.
  • a tapered locomotive receives the function number "04” and a sliding locomotive the function numbers "05".
  • the train boss receives the function number "10” and the passenger coaches 1, 2 and 3 the function numbers "11", "12", or "13".
  • the functional assignments may differ nationally.
  • the mobile terminals of the respective resources are contacted and the related data of the mobile radio network GSM-R updated.
  • the network data are read out and the positions of the resources determined by assignment of the cell information to the operating points of the rail network.
  • the selected resources by means of a short message SM of the Short Messaging Services SMS, such as a binary SMS or a silent SMS, which is part of the functions of the mobile network GSM-R.
  • a short message SM of the Short Messaging Services SMS such as a binary SMS or a silent SMS, which is part of the functions of the mobile network GSM-R.
  • the mobile network is updated as necessary, without burdening it heavily.
  • the location of the mobile terminals is performed by the mobile network GSM-R itself.
  • the short message SM is preferably selected such that it does not trigger any recognizable for the user, in particular the train driver action on the mobile devices and only leads to an update of the mobile network GSM-R. For example, a so-called silent SMS is sent to the mobile terminals.
  • An update in the mobile network is also carried out when there is a radio connection that has been established, for example, for making a call.
  • these mobile terminals can also be used to carry out the method. It is essential that there is a fixed allocation of the mobile terminals to the resources. If, for example, mobile terminals of the train protection system are installed in the locomotives, their cell affiliation can also be queried in order to determine the location of the locomotives. If there is a permanent connection between these mobile terminals and the train control systems, no separate site updates are required.
  • a message preferably a message provided with a corresponding code
  • a location update in idle mode can be carried out. Similar to a change of the location area (Location Area), the mobile terminal is caused to update the location data in the network (Location Update).
  • the determination of the positions of the resources of the rail network by means of the mobile network GSM-R is thus without the use of additional means, such as the ETCS system or the GPS system, which provides data with higher precision, which is hardly of advantage for the present application , It should also be noted that, despite the high precision, when using the GPS system it is hardly possible to assign a vehicle to a track.
  • the inventive method allows to determine the affiliation to a track.
  • locomotives are possibly managed according to the first-in / first-out principle, in which no fixed assignment of a locomotive to a train takes place, but the train is assigned the next locomotive of the buffer.
  • the changes made should be able to be recorded automatically within a very short time. That is, the actual state of the rail network and the resources should be able to be automatically updated even after errors and changes within a very short time, preferably. Especially in case of an incident, resource planning systems are not tracked manually due to their priorities. This automatic updating of the actual state of the rail network can be advantageously carried out by means of the method and the device according to the invention.
  • the time of the reported event does not differ significantly from the time of the determination of the radio cells.
  • the time of the reported event does not differ significantly from the time of the determination of the radio cells.
  • during the passage of a high-speed train is to ensure that the train is not retracted within the time deviation in another cell range. Otherwise, it may be found that resources are not present at the operating point concerned and are not owned by the train and removed from the candidate list.
  • Each operating point is therefore preferably assigned individually depending on the present cell sizes tolerance time.
  • control computer a management unit, hereinafter referred to as control computer, in which all available and interesting resources of an operating point are recorded, which can be used for the train.
  • the control computer can also monitor only a part of the resources, for example only the use of the locomotives.
  • the list of candidates can therefore be adapted to the needs of railway undertakings.
  • the user can pretend that certain information is already secured and therefore should not be included in the candidate list for examination. For example, it can be provided that the train locomotive with the function code "01" is not included in the candidate list, but belongs to the train.
  • Resources that are functionally logged on to other moves can be included in the candidate list to verify the registered assignment.
  • Resources that do not belong to any radio cell of the attained operating point are preferably then continued in the candidate list when they are functionally logged on to the train for which the candidate list is being tested. In this way, resources that may be coupled to the train at a later time, but are still at a different operating point, continue to be monitored.
  • the compatibility of the resources at the operating point, in particular of the locomotives, with the resources already connected to the train, in particular of the locomotives, is preferably checked, according to which only compatible resources, in particular locomotives capable of multiple traction, are included in the candidate list. It is possible that a locomotive is included, which is not compatible with the train, but another locomotive of the train. Locomotives, however, which can not cooperate with the leading locomotive, are preferably not included in the candidate list, since a connection of the train is to be excluded with such a locomotive.
  • resources for whose mobile terminals no connection to the mobile radio network GSM-R or another monitored mobile radio network has been established are preferably not included in the candidate list or, if already present, deleted therefrom. If there is no change in the network data registered for this mobile terminal when contacting such a mobile terminal, then it is to be assumed that this mobile terminal and, for example, the associated locomotive are switched off.
  • the candidate list is preferably created at the operating points or meta-operating points at which the train starts or ends a journey or stops for a period of time during which a change in train composition or resources is possible or at which a change is made by the operations management the resources is arranged. For example, if the train stops for more than four minutes, it is possible that, for example, a locomotive will be docked or uncoupled or a duplicate train composition (passenger / freight) will be disconnected.
  • the train running data are therefore constantly checked to determine whether instead of a passage at an operating point a longer stop planned resp. is done.
  • the candidate's position data is preferably updated and queried. If it is found for a candidate or a resource that it is already at another operating point, it is removed from the candidate list and its renewed location preferably reported.
  • the secured information, the determined position of resources and / or the determined affiliation of resources to a train, are subsequently reported to a management unit, by means of which the actual state of the resources is mapped in the rail network.
  • This administrative unit is called the IST Calculator below.
  • the message to the IST computer preferably takes place after the affiliation of the resources to a train for at least two operating points could be confirmed.
  • the train run data of trains are preferably provided by a management unit which monitors train run data and from a planning computer plan data of the train run and from the signal boxes data of the actual train run, such as the data of the entrance and exit of trains in or out of a block of an operating point receives.
  • a management unit which monitors train run data and from a planning computer plan data of the train run and from the signal boxes data of the actual train run, such as the data of the entrance and exit of trains in or out of a block of an operating point receives.
  • This administrative unit will be referred to as a run-time computer.
  • the train run data of further trains are taken into account in order to determine the travel of a short distance possibly parallel moving train. If only one train leaves an operating point, it may be assumed that the resources belong to the monitored train and are not routed on a parallel rail. Taking into account the train run data, further decision criteria for the inclusion or exclusion of resources in the candidate list can thus be obtained.
  • the test is preferably continued over further operating points before a message is sent to the actual computer.
  • FIG. 1 shows an operating point BP-1 of a known rail network with resources, namely locomotives L01, ..., L52. These resources L01,..., L52 can be functionally registered by means of associated mobile terminals MS01,..., MS52 in a cellular mobile radio network GSM-R which, for example, operates according to the specifications of the EIRENE (EUROPEAN INTEGRATED RAILWAY RADIO ENHANCED NETWORK) system.
  • EIRENE EUROPEAN INTEGRATED RAILWAY RADIO ENHANCED NETWORK
  • EIRENE system provides two essential communication systems, namely a first system for the control (Train Control) and a second system for the operation (Operational) of the entire railway system.
  • the first system allows communication of the train-side and track-side system units of the European Train Control System (ETCS).
  • the Train Control System includes all processes that affect a train without the driver intervening. This includes the automatic train protection, the automatic train operation and the so-called in-cab signaling, which provides the driver with up-to-date information.

  • FIG. 1 2 illustrates that the locomotive L01 of the train T01 has an identification module TAG 01 whose data are read from the Eurobalise B55 and transmitted to an ETCS computer V4, which records the acquired data and the time of reading in a table T4.
  • the second system allows communication with the function carriers of a train.
  • the function of the function carrier is relevant and not the fact of which person performs this function.
  • the EIRENE system therefore provides for the use of EIRENE numbers with the three different blocks CT (Call Type), UIN (User Identifier Number) and FC (Function Code), as described in [3], chapter 9, pages 87 ff. , is described.
  • Block CT defines the type of allowed user number. For example, block UIN defines a train number for a particular train Travel, the number of the working locomotive, the number of a car, or the number of a particular team.
  • the block FC defines the function of a person, a team or a device of a train.

As the train T01 continues to travel, the inactive sliding locomotive L03 is thus automatically removed from the soon to be revised candidate list K.
  • FIG. 4 also shows an example of a candidate list K11 prepared for the train T02. From the table TB3 the functionally registered locomotives L21, L22 and L99 were added to the candidate list K11. The locomotive L99 was taken, although it is still stationed at a remote operating point BP -22 and will hit the train T02 only at operating point BP-17. Furthermore, the other locomotives L01 (although functionally registered at the train T01) and L03 were added to the candidate list K11. After updating the network data of the mobile terminal MS04 of locomotive L04, it was determined that it is inactive. For Locomotives L51 and L52 have been found to be incompatible with locomotives L21 and L22.
  • FIG. 4 also shows the candidate list K12 prepared at the operating point BP-17 for the train T02, which now shows the current state of the train T02 after the locomotive L99 has been coupled.
  • the IST computer V1 which shows the actual image of the rail network, can therefore be informed that the train T02 was actually transferred from the operating point BP-1 to the operating point BP-17 with the locomotives L21 and L23 and coupled there with the sliding locomotive L99.
  • operating point is to be interpreted broadly.
  • An operating point is basically present where a radio cell or a group of radio cells can be assigned to a part of the rail network. That is, by the query of the cell information, the location of the relevant resources to a part of the rail network can be assigned.
  • Operating points can thus be larger and smaller stations, but also rail sections that correspond to a radio cell of a mobile network from which cell information can be queried.
  • an operating point BP-S is drawn for the route section between the operating points BP-17 and BP-22, at which the position of the locomotive L99, for example, can be queried.
  • learning trips can be performed to determine the assignment of the radio cells to the operating points.
  • the data of the radio cells can be detected by the leading locomotive at the running operating points and registered centrally.
  • a complete or partial initialization of the system can be performed by querying the data of all relevant resources.
  • the inventive method thus allowed to create the actual image of the resources in the rail network with little effort.
  • a check preferably takes place over two or more operating points before the data is reported to the actual computer V1.
  • the test is preferably carried out via further operating points. Due to the density of the rail network, the secure determination of the position and the affiliation of the resources to a train takes place within a short time, on average within about 5-15 minutes, which is more than sufficient in terms of the long-term disposition of the resources.
  • the inventive method can also be extended as desired. For example, maneuvering of locomotives and trains can also be monitored.
  • FIG. 5 shows a device according to the invention in a preferred configuration, by means of which the in FIG. 4 illustrated procedures are feasible.
  • the planning computer V0 the IST computer V1
  • the train running computer V2 the mobile computer V3 and the control computer V5 are shown, which provide the functions described above. These functions can also be integrated as modules in another computer configuration. It is shown that the ETCS calculator V4 of FIG. 2 is not required for the inventive method. Overall, this results in a simplified design of the management system of the rail network.
  • the mobile radio computer V3 can query cell identification data from the GSM-R mobile radio network or also from other mobile radio networks of any domestic or foreign network operators.
  • control computer V5 can use train run data from partner companies abroad, so that resources of the company can also be monitored on foreign rail networks.
  • FIG. 5 it is shown that the control computer V5 can query train run data from a computer V2-INT, which is operated by a company abroad.
  • the inventive method can thus also be carried out across borders with the use of all available national and international information sources.
  • FIG. 5 it is shown that the control computer V5 linked by the mobile computer V3 and the data supplied by the train running computer V2 with each other.
  • partial linking of this data can already be performed by the run-time computer V2.
  • the control computer V5 linked by the mobile computer V3 and the data supplied by the train running computer V2 with each other.
  • partial linking of this data can already be performed by the run-time computer V2.
  • the functional registrations in particular of the locomotives are included.
  • An example of such a train history table T2A will be described below.
  • new entries in this table T2A are each reported to the control computer V5, which checks the change messages and if necessary revised the candidate list K of the train concerned.
  • the messages issued by the train run computer V2 are composed, for example, in accordance with the guidelines of the European Association for Railway Interoperability, which are described in document [5], The Trans-European Conventional Rail System, "TELEMATIC APPLICATIONS ", subsystem for Freight Services, DATA DEFINITIONS AND MESSAGES, AEIF_TAF_MesData_V11_041021-EN.doc.
  • the train history table T2A comprises ten lines. Lines 1 and 2 as well as lines 9 and 10 show that the locomotives L51 (locomotive with code FC01) and L52 (locomotive with code FC05) at 09:10 and 09:12, respectively, functionally registered for the freight train T03 and at 10:35 and 10:36 have functionally logged off again.
  • the corresponding data in the table T2A originate from the source V3 or from the mobile computer V3.
  • Lines 3 to 8 show the trajectory from the operating point BP-A (start operating point) to the operating point BP-F (target operating point).
  • the messages entered in the table are generated, which contain the planned and actually occurring times for departure and arrival, the corresponding deviations and a source.
  • the stay at operating point BP-B was thus 7 minutes instead of the planned 2 minutes.
  • the actual and not only the planned run is preferably taken into account. After the planned train run would be on Operating point BP-B only a stay of 2 minutes, which is why the candidate list K would not have been updated. However, after it was determined that the freight train T03 had stopped for 7 minutes, the candidate list K is checked. This takes into account the fact that within these 7 minutes, for example, a locomotive could have been docked or decoupled. Without a message being issued by the personnel of the operating point BP-B, a check of the actual state of the train T03 is automatically carried out with the method according to the invention.
  • the inventive method can thus be implemented in variously configured systems. Furthermore, information from other sources can be taken into account. Unless for a particular If a change in the train composition is reported at the operating point, this can be taken into account accordingly in the next revision of the candidate list.
  • all described system modules V1,..., V5 can be integrated in a single computer.
  • the control computer V5 itself carries out the updating and retrieval of the position data of the mobile terminals MS.
  • the update and the query can be performed on the one hand by short messages SM and on the other hand by the communication with the relevant mobile network.
  • FIG. 5 also shows two scheduling computers V100, V101 of two railway undertakings, the first of which serves passenger transport and the second freight transport, whereby a mixed operation of the resources of these railway companies is possible.
  • the method according to the invention now makes it possible to determine information for the resources of these companies and to make these companies available selectively.
  • Of prime interest is the management of locomotives.
  • information on further resources for which a mobile terminal MS is provided can be determined and selectively forwarded to the scheduling computers V100, V101.
  • the disposition computers V100, V101 thus have current and reliable data and can optimally plan the further use of resources.
