Development of an algorithm for energy efficient automated train driving
Résumé
Automated train driving function is greatly demanded in high-speed and commuter trains operated by Russian railways. Siemens Corporate Technology is involved in the development of such real-time function within a "robotised" train control system. The main intention of the system is not only to relieve the human driver from routine control over traction and brakes (allowing him to pay more attention to assurance of safety) but also to increase train efficiency by reducing the amount of consumed energy. The system under development is intended to be integrated into the existing architecture of Siemens high-speed trains as an additional function. Its environment is constituted mainly of control systems of a high safety integrity level. This on the one hand guarantees that the automated train driving system will not have any impact on train safety, but on the other hand it implies additional restrictions on the operation of the system to be fulfilled. This paper presents the experience in implementation and verification of automated train driving algorithms for Velaro RUS and Desiro RUS trains.
