The present invention relates to a method of setting up a communication network on a train control and monitoring system (TCMS) of an electric vehicle, and in particular, to quickly grasp information of adjacent trains in the middle connection of an electric vehicle and to quickly perform a communication process. The present invention relates to a communication network setting method on a TCMS in a mid-term connection of an electric vehicle that enables a vehicle.

Introduced to transport large numbers of people at one time, the train has been operating in a single system consisting mostly of 10 or 8 vehicles. In addition, recently run or promoted urban railway cars are composed of four or six cars in order to save energy and reduce the purchase and operation cost of electric cars.

However, there is a need for the medium-speed operation of electric vehicles to transport large numbers of people for commuting or various big events, which is also a global trend.

At present, TCMS, an electric vehicle control and monitoring device, is in charge of collecting various signal information, presenting the state, and recording and storing it to grasp the driving state of the entire electric vehicle. Therefore, through TCMS, quick communication processing should be possible not only in the electric vehicle composed of one train but also in the middle operation such as the two-road and the three-road.

The most essential thing in constructing the midship of electric train is to grasp the information of adjacent formation. That is, various signals and methods have been used to find out how many pairs are connected. A total of 56 units (14 trains) of Taiwan's EMU600 system are composed of a total of 56 cars (14 trains), which are connected to each other through a digital input signal called ICR (Intermediate Car Relay) indicating the intermediate driving vehicle and a train number of 1 to 14 corresponding vehicles. Know the information and location. However, there is a problem in that the selection of the master is delayed by the number of pairs and then a long time delay occurs for a vehicle having a high number.

In other words, the connection between trains with different programming numbers for frequent operation often occurs, and at this time, a quick network configuration must be made through TCMS. However, there is a problem that a variable time delay occurs when using a pair number to find information of adjacent vehicles.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above problems, and when the head and tail vehicles are determined in the entire vehicle system, inter-organization communication is provided by providing a signal that any driving vehicle is headed to an electric vehicle arranged in the middle. It is possible to set up the network quickly, and separately configure the inter-vehicle communication network and the entire inter-communication communication network to provide a method of setting a communication network on the TCMS during the mid-term connection of the electric vehicle, in which the information in the organization can be stored even if the middle configuration is changed Its purpose is to.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an electric vehicle control monitoring system (TCMS: Train Control & Monitoring System), characterized in that the electric vehicle is composed of one or more combinations, each of which consists of one or more vehicles. A method of setting a communication network on a TCMS, comprising: setting a master vehicle of a master vehicle of an entire electric vehicle among driving vehicles of the electric vehicle; A master vehicle setting step for each organization for setting a master vehicle of each of the driving vehicles of the electric vehicle; Step information detection step for detecting the information in the corresponding organization including the own vehicle information and the slave vehicle information through the first communication channel, the master vehicle set in each of the configuration master vehicle setting step, and stores it ; And a communication network setting step in which the master vehicle of the all electric vehicles set in the all master vehicle setting step communicates with the master vehicle of each organization through a second communication channel, detects and stores all electric vehicle information, and completes the communication network setting. Characterized in that it comprises a.

The above objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Unlike a train consisting of a single train, in the case of a train consisting of a middle train that connects a single train in series, up to how many units to connect in the middle train, the configuration of trains for each train, whether the train number is detected between adjacent trains and the communication master setting Consideration should be given to the method.

The general specifications of the central electric vehicle for the above considerations are as follows.

First, in the case of a general electric car, not only a single knitting, but also a four-, eight- and twelve-piece knitting configuration can be used to form a double or triple center.

In addition, the configuration of the electric vehicle for a single knitting can be generally classified into two types in the knitting, the specific content of which is as follows.

Type A: MC1 (1) -T1 (2) -T2 (3) -MC2 (0)

Type B: MC2 (0) -T2 (3) -T1 (2) -MC1 (1)

(Here, MC1 and MC2 represent driving vehicles and T1 and T2 represent general vehicles.)

In addition, in general, the details of the configuration of the type according to the number of vehicles as follows.

4 volume: A, B

8 volume: AA, AB, BA, BB

12 cars: AAA, AAB, ABA, ABB, BAA, BAB, BBA, BBB

In addition, it can be generally divided into four groups between organizations, the details are as follows.

Ⅰ group: HCR-TCR

Group II: HCR-ICR

Ⅲ group: ICR-ICR

Ⅳ Group: ICR-TCR

Here, HCR is a leading vehicle signal (HCR: Head Car Relay, hereinafter referred to as HCR) which means that the driving vehicle is located at the head of the entire electric vehicle, and TCR is a terminal vehicle signal which means that the driving vehicle is located at the end of the entire electric vehicle. (TCR: Tail Car Relay, hereinafter called TCR), and ICR is an intermediate vehicle signal (ICR: Intermediate Car Relay, hereinafter referred to as ICR), indicating that the adjacent vehicle of the other side exists.

First, the form of vehicle formation is composed of group I only in case of four cars, but group II and group IV in case of eight cars, and group II, group III and group IV in case of twelve cars.

In addition, the driving vehicle with ICR = ON detects the information of the adjacent pair via a one-to-one RS485 communication line.

In addition, the configuration of the communication master is the HCR, TCR, ICR, forward intermediate vehicle signal (ICF: Intermediate Car Forward, hereinafter referred to as ICF), which means that the driving vehicle is located in the front of the organization belonging to it and the driving located behind the organization. Intermediate rear vehicle signal (ICB: Intermediate Car Backward, hereinafter referred to as ICB) signal means that the vehicle. Here, HCR and TCR are signals that are input only to the front and the end of the electric vehicle, and ICR, ICF and ICB are also input to the intermediate vehicle of the electric vehicle.

For example, in the MC vehicle, the state of channel 1 is all slave state at the initial startup, and is set to master when ICR = OFF and HCR = ON. Also, if ICR = ON and ICF = ON, it is set as master, and if ICR = ON and ICB = ON, it is set as slave. Also, if ICR = OFF and TCR = ON, it is set as slave. On the other hand, if the above conditions are not satisfied, the previous master / slave state is maintained at the time of initial startup.

On the other hand, in the state of channel 2, the vehicle with the HCR = ON becomes the master, and receives the information on the type and group of the adjacent formation from the other driving vehicle to complete the configuration.

(One embodiment at the time of single knitting of the 4-car configuration)

1 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment of a method for setting a communication network on a TCMS in a single configuration of a quadruple configuration. As shown in FIG. 1, a vehicle to which an HCR signal is input becomes a communication master to perform inter-vehicle communication through channel 1. At this time, the head vehicle detects that the middle pair signal ICR = OFF among the digital signals of the end vehicle through communication to release the communication function of channel 2.

2 is an exemplary configuration diagram showing a vehicle configured by a communication network setting method on a TCMS in a single configuration of a quadruple configuration. In FIG. 2, the HCR signal is applied to the driving vehicle MC1 as an example. Here, one hundred units of the vehicle number indicates a vehicle type, ten units and one unit indicates a pair number, and are the same below.

(One Example at the time of double middle knitting of 8 quantity structure)

Figure 3 is an exemplary configuration showing a communication network setting method on the TCMS when two-tiered configuration of 8-car configuration according to the present invention.

First, referring to FIG. 3, the communication master setting of channel 1 will be described. In the case of the heading group II, the vehicle with HCR = ON is set as the communication master. On the other hand, in the end grouping of group IV, since both driving vehicles do not have an HCR signal, a vehicle having TCR = ON becomes a slave and a vehicle having ICR = ON and ICF = ON becomes a master.

In addition, a vehicle with ICR = ON shares the type and group information of adjacent formations using RS485 communication, and the communication master of channel 1 for each organization collects information of other vehicles in its own formation.

On the other hand, the channel 1 communication master of group II and the channel 1 communication master of group IV are selected as nodes for channel 2, and the vehicle to which the HCR is applied becomes the entire communication master. In addition, the entire communication master of channel 2 communicates with the activated node as well as the vehicle information in the formation through channel 1, and finally detects the vehicle information of the terminal formation to complete the communication network setup on the TCMS for the entire electric vehicle configuration.

4 is an exemplary configuration diagram showing a vehicle configured by a communication network setting method on a TCMS during two-tier configuration of eight vehicle configurations according to the present invention.

(Example of the three-tiered knitting of 12-car configuration)

FIG. 5 is an exemplary configuration diagram illustrating a communication network setting method on a TCMS during triangulation of 12 vehicle configurations according to the present invention.

First, a communication master setting of channel 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 5. In the case of the heading group which is the II group, the vehicle with HCR = ON is set as the communication master. In addition, in the end grouping of group IV, the vehicle with TCR = ON is a slave because both driving vehicles have no HCR signal, but the vehicle with ICR = ON and ICF = ON becomes the master. On the other hand, in the middle group of group III, since there are no vehicles with HCR = ON or TCR = ON, the vehicles with ICR = ON and ICF = ON become masters, and the vehicles with ICR = ON and ICB = ON become slaves.

In addition, the vehicle with ICR = ON shares the type and group information of the adjacent pairs using RS485 communication, and the communication master of channel 1 for each pair collects information of other vehicles in its own set.

On the other hand, the channel 1 communication master of group II, the channel 1 communication master of group IV and the channel 1 communication master of group III are selected as nodes for channel 2, and the vehicle to which HCR is applied becomes the entire communication master. In addition, the entire communication master of channel 2 communicates with the activated node as well as the vehicle information in the formation through channel 1, and finally detects the vehicle information of the terminal formation to complete the communication network setup on the TCMS for the entire electric vehicle configuration.

6 is an exemplary configuration diagram showing a vehicle configured by a communication network setting method on a TCMS during triangulation of 12 vehicle configurations according to the present invention.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure of a method for establishing a communication network on a TCMS of a mid-range electric train according to the present invention. As shown in Fig. 7, first, the entire master vehicle of the electric vehicle is set (10). Here, the HCR-activated vehicle, which means that the driving vehicle is located at the head of the entire electric vehicle, is set as the master vehicle.

Next, a master vehicle for each pair is set (20). The master vehicle of each combination is a vehicle in which ICR and ICF are activated.

Subsequently, information is detected per organization through the first communication channel (30). That is, the master vehicle of each train detects and stores the information in the train, including the own vehicle information and the slave car information, through the first communication channel. Here, the ICR-enabled vehicle detects the neighboring pairing information through the RS 485 communication line, and stores the detected neighboring pairing information so that the master vehicle of the pairing can be detected.

Finally, the information detection and communication network setting of the entire electric vehicle is completed through the second communication channel (40).

In the above, the present invention has been described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments and those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention. The various changes and modifications can be made by.

The present invention as described above has the effect of quickly setting the inter-communication communication network in the entire vehicle system, and storing the intra-organization information even if the intermediate configuration is changed.
