Alternative Broken Rail Protection |
摘要: |
With the advent of Positive Train Control (PTC) Technology to replace the conventional track circuit based signaling system, a method has to be devised as an alternative to using the track circuit for detection of broken rail. It is not desirable to retain some part of the track circuits for this detection as they are expensive to install and maintain, and thus contradicting the intent of reducing the replacement and operating cost of train control system by replacing the conventional signaling system with PTC. |
