CTC-Based Train Collision Warning System

A novel early warning method is proposed to avoid train rear-end collisions based on centralized traffic control (CTC). The method monitors train tracking intervals in real time, calculates a minimum safety interval, and issues alerts if the actual interval is less than the minimum, particularly if the existing automatic train protection is faulty. This doubles monitoring of intervals and can control trains to prevent accidents. It also automates supervision to reduce labor while improving effectiveness. The paper analyzes the feasibility of this CTC interval warning method and establishes models for interval calculation and reliability analysis of the train control system with this approach.

A New Early Warning Method of Train Tracking Interval Based on CTC

For railway operations worldwide, train rear-endcollision accidents occasionally occur, resulting in heavy
casualtiesand property loss. To avoid the occurrence of such incidents, anovel early warning method of
train tracking interval based oncentralized traffic control (CTC), or simply CTC interval prewarning,is
proposed. When combined with the existing automatictrain protection (ATP), the monitoring of train
tracking intervalis doubled. The proposed method calculates the minimum safetyinterval in real time and
compares it with the actual spatial [Link] the actual spatial distance is less than the minimum

safety interval, particularly when the ATP is at fault, the proposedmethod is capable of raising the alert
and taking control measuresto effectively avoid rear-end collision accidents. At the same time,this
method displaces the manual supervision of train operation,thereby relieving labor intensity, and
improves the effectivenessof supervision. This paper analyzes the necessity and feasibilityof the
proposed CTC interval prewarning method and explainsthe basic architecture of the system, data
acquisition, trackinginterval calculation, prewarning rules, and implementation. TheCTC tracking interval
calculation model has been established, andthe table of warning distance of the different train speeds
hasbeen calculated. The reliability model of the train control system(TCS) has been established based on
the CTC interval prewarningmethod, which is used to analyze the reliability and safety ofthe TCS.
