Abstract |
The railway has recently been expanded with the phase of the future transportation. Accordingly, using the new technologies such as smart devices and LTE-R, the needs for reducing operational costs and improving passenger services have emerged. To realize these needs, the government is pushing to build the dedicated wireless network for the railway systems. In this paper, the shunting route indicator was selected for this study because it has the best effect for the wireless system removed lots of wired cables. And the wireless shunting route indicator applied with LTE-R technology was developed to replace the current wired control system. The functional goal(the wireless control function applied LTE-R), the performance goal(less than 300ms for transferring the control information), and the reliability goal(over the 100,000 hours for MTBF) were set, and these goals were achieved and demonstrated through the test and validation. |
