TRAIN COMMUNICATION AND CONTROL
Flexible, Safe and Secure Gateways for modernizing and retrofitting existing train systems and building rail networks for new projects
With rail transport being the most environmentally friendly and safe way to travel and transport large volumes across long distances, rail transport must become more efficient and, with the development of digital networks, train communication networks must be secure. Whether long-distance freight transport, commuter traffic or high-speed passenger travel, rail services need reliable systems for control and communicating between vehicles and between track and train.
Modern railways have train control, monitoring and information systems for a range of essential functions. These train control systems need to be robust and reliable to provide safe and efficient operation, maintenance and monitoring of rolling stock. The vital communication between the track and train, the signalling systems and the safe performance of the system need to meet specified international standards to improve interoperability of rail services.
Train operators not only need to achieve maximum availability of the rolling stock, while at the same time keeping maintenance cost to a minimum, they also need to build effective cybersecurity for the safe adoption of new IP-based applications for train control, traffic management, train monitoring, CCTV and PIS applications to avoid security incidents.
Vehicle gateways are used to upgrade existing train systems with new and enhanced capabilities. Real-time passenger information (RTPI) based on current vehicle positions, infotainment functionality and automated fare collections (AFC) are provided on board the vehicles. These systems support satellite positioning, data logging, wireless data communication, retrieving data, and can be integrated with other embedded electronic systems.
As environments are often harsh and narrow, computers for rail applications must be robust and compact. They are typically networked by fieldbuses such as MVB, Real-time Ethernet (CIP, IPTCom, PROFINET, TRDP), Serial, CAN and WTB.
To fulfil the rail specific environmental and development quality standards, we work with market-proven procedures, technologies and components. Our solutions are compliant with European railway standards for electronic equipment used for rolling stock and international railway standards for testing equipment used on railway vehicles.
