Analysis of safe and effective next-generation rail signalling systems

Moving Block (MB) and Virtual Coupling (VC) rail signalling will change current train operation paradigm by migrating vital equipment from trackside to onboard to reduce train separation and maintenance costs. Their actual deployment is however constrained by the industry's need to identify configurations of MB and VC signalling equipment...

Deliverable D4.1: Real-Time Traffic Rescheduling Algorithms and Perturbation Management and Hazard Prevention in Moving-Block Operations

This deliverable has the objective to define a mathematical model for an optimised real-time management of railway traffic under Moving Block (MB). The formulated real-time traffic management model contains: i) a core module for the detection and the sub-optimal resolution of track occupation conflicts under MB and ii) a non-vital module for...
