Abstract

Current rail traffic management and control systems cannot be easily upgraded to the new needs and challenges of modern railway systems because they do not offer interoperable data structures and standardized communication interfaces. To meet this need, the Horizon 2020 Shift2Rail OPTIMA project has developed a communication platform for testing and validating the new generation of traffic management systems (TMS), whose main innovative features are the interoperability of the data structures used, standardization of communications, continuous access to real-time and persistent data from heterogeneous data sources, modularity of components and scalability of the platform. This paper presents the main components, their functions and characteristics, then describes the testing and validation of the platform, even when federated with other innovative TMS modules developed in separate projects. The successful validation of the system has confirmed the achievement of the objectives set and allowed a new set of objectives to be defined for the reference platform for the railway TMS/Traffic Control systems.

新一代铁路交通管理系统的通信平台演示器：测试和验证

目前的铁路交通管理和控制系统无法轻松升级，以适应现代铁路系统的新需求和新挑战，因为它们无法提供可互操作的数据结构和标准化的通信接口。为满足这一需求，地平线 2020 Shift2Rail OPTIMA 项目开发了一个用于测试和验证新一代交通管理系统（TMS）的通信平台，其主要创新特点是所使用数据结构的互操作性、通信的标准化、从异构数据源持续访问实时和持久数据、组件的模块化和平台的可扩展性。本文介绍了该平台的主要组件、功能和特点，然后介绍了该平台的测试和验证情况，即使在与独立项目中开发的其他创新 TMS 模块联合使用时也是如此。系统的成功验证证实了既定目标的实现，并为铁路 TMS/交通控制系统的参考平台确定了一套新的目标。
