Communications-Based Train Control: Komponenten, Funktionen und Betrieb (Essentials Ser.)
by Lars SchniederInnerstädtische Schienenverkehrssysteme stoßen bei steigender Verkehrsnachfrage zunehmend an ihre Grenzen. Die Sicherheit und die Leistungsfähigkeit dieser Verkehrssysteme werden wesentlich durch die eingesetzte Leit- und Sicherungstechnik bestimmt. Eine Ausweitung des Verkehrsangebots erfordert leistungsfähige signaltechnische Systeme, die als Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) bezeichnet werden. Lars Schnieder stellt in diesem Fachbuch die Systemumgebung dar, in die sich die CBTC-Systeme in Nahverkehrsunternehmen integrieren. Darüber hinaus leitet er her, welchen Beitrag die einzelnen Sicherungsfunktionen von CBTC-Lösungen zur Gefährdungsbeherrschung leisten. Auf dieser Grundlage zeigt der Autor, wie mit zunehmender Automatisierung sukzessive ein höherer Funktionsumfang von technischen Systemen übernommen wird. Zum Abschluss diskutiert er an CBTC-Systeme gestellte nicht-funktionale Anforderungen wie Sicherheit, Verfügbarkeit, Leistungsfähigkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit.
