2 / New Concepts of Operation Enabled by OCC and MPT Photo: Operation Control Center Integration: IXL, RBC, Telco, CP Integration: Control, Dispatching Direct Control by Dispatching Photo: Mobile Possession Terminal
3 / Targets and Challenge Targets Capacity increase Quality (punctuality) Cost reduction Integration of ETCS L2 Operation during occurrence of incidents and rebuilding Integration of CheckPoints (hot wheel detection,..) Networking with neighbouring Operation Control Centres (OCC), TSI... => Challenge: reach combination of targets
4 / Enabling new concepts of operation Traffic Management System Integrated workstation Interlocking, Train Control (ETCS L2), CheckPoint, Telecom, CCTV,.. Central, local and mobile workstations vital and non-safety relevant Applications Direct control via dispatching seamless interworking of planning, supervision, dispatching, control Control (non vital) via e.g. time-distance graph, station graphs, maps,.. Automatic conflict resolution Network wide Local automated
5 / Architecture of Infrastructure e.g. Saudi-Arabia => Integrated HMI and MPT for IXL, RBC, CP and Telco
6 / Integrated Workstation Demo at Innotrans 2012 Integrated workstation Interlocking, Train Control (ETCS L2), CheckPoint, Telecom, CCTV,.. Central, local and mobile workstations vital and non-safety relevant Applications Large Screen 4k pixel /4*HD Line Graph IXL, ETCS vital Time- Distance Graph Station Graph Tablets Mobile Possession Terminal
7 / Integrated Workstation Demonstrator at Innotrans 2012 Based on products ARAMIS und HIS Advanced Railway Automation, Management and Information System is a Rail Traffic Management System used for Centralisation, Automation and Optimisation Functions Automation and optimisation Supports planning, supervision, dispatching, control and analyses of train services, automated conflict resolution Provides central information database Optimized plans for speed regulation Integrates Scada, Telecom Customers Railway infrastructure companies Train operator companies
Applications 8 / Integration of vital and non-safety relevant Applications TMS System modular, scalable in functions and size Safe-HMI- Platform Safe HMI Control Cost Security Translator Dispatching, Planning, Scheduler System Firewall External systems: IT, Telco, Scada, etc => Smart integration reduces cost
9 / Dispatching and Control Dispat ching Vital Control ARS Automatic Conflict Resolution Network wide (scheduler) Local Automated logic De-conflict Button => Non vital control with dispatching system (big portion of operation)
10 / Dispatching and Control Line Graph graphical Modification of a Train Route executable routing plan for ARS produced in real-time (Automatic Route Setting System) Vital Contr ol Disp atchi ng ARS => Efficient operation
11 / Dispatching and Control - Train Tracking Train tracking sources IXL ETCS L2 GPS Vital Contr ol Disp atchi ng ARS Display of a Train based on a GPS message => Train Location sources are synchronized by TMS
12 / CheckPoint - Integration Past: manual train condition monitoring done by station master Future: state of the art OCC
13 / CheckPoint Integration -Train measurement with alarm Detection Hot Wheels Derailment Train gauge monitoring RFID TAG Reader Vital Contr ol Disp atchi ng ARS Train passed with alarm (hot wheel) (train number in checkpoint tool tip)
14 / CheckPoint - Functions Advantages with OCC integration Fault condition detection before reaching a critical value Easier and safer handling of faulty rolling stock Optimize the rolling stock maintenance interval Automatic evaluation of the condition of the train Automatic stop of trains in case of dangerous damages
15 / TMS Outlook - Technology The technology in next years will be HW independent (Virtual Machines) Further Integration (SOAP) Efficient integration of vital and non-safety relevant functions clear separation, trend is to have more functions in non safe systems Operation organisation becomes independent from technical equipment Operation Control Centres, Network Management Centres, CTC integrated in IT infrastructure Integration of TMS, ETCS L2, Mobile Devices On Board Systems Table PC, Smart phones
16 / 16 TMS Outlook - Functions The emphasis in next years will be Functions Integration of CTCs into Regional/National Control Centres Network optimization on-top of local optimisation Energy Savings Scheduler (conflict resolutions network wide) Local automated (COTO: Computerized Optimization of Train Operation) Interoperability (TAF/TSI, TAP/TSI) optimized speed for crossing and energy savings
