Signal Block Layout System for High-Speed Railway

Publication: ICTE 2019

ABSTRACT

Signal block layout is very important for the operation efficiency and safety of high-speed railway. In this paper, signal block layout system for high-speed railway was designed based on the principle of train traction calculation and train operation control. In order to introduce the system more completely, some key issues are discussed such as automatic train traction calculation, train headway calculation, and automatic signal block layout. This system could provide a reasonable layout plan for railway signal block design, and be benefit for line capacity and train operation optimization.
