現代ロテムがLTE基盤列車制御システムを開発、世界初=韓国
Hyundai Rotem develops LTE-based train control system, world's first = South Korea
On the 30th, Hyundai Rotem, which manufactures railway vehicles, announced that it will introduce a ``Korean-style train control system'' on the 180-kilometer Cholla Line (Iksan Station to Yeosu EXPO Station).
announced the successful first operation of the KTCS-2 system. KTCS-2 is a train control system based on LTE-R, a fourth generation (4G) mobile communication technology exclusively for railways.
It is responsible for checking the location information of trains and adjusting the intervals between trains. In addition to switching tracks after checking the track condition, it can also handle train speed control and emergency braking, making it possible to
This technology is essential for the operation of TX and SRT. Previously, only a burris-type train-sensing blocking device installed on the track was used, rather than wireless communication. Therefore, train operation information is available in real time.
It was difficult to confirm the information. According to the South Korean Ministry of Highways and Transportation, if KTCS-2 is commercialized, train service intervals will increase by up to 23% and transportation capacity will increase by 1.2 times. Safety evaluation
As a result of evaluating the safety of KTCS-2 according to international standards for safety, it was found that the safety was approximately 5.81 times higher than that of existing systems.
Furthermore, if KTCS-2 is commercialized, expectations are high for unification and standardization of the railway system in South Korea. Foreign countries applied to Korean railways
If the existing system can be replaced with KTCS-2, maintenance and repair costs can also be expected to be reduced.
