Description du projet
Concevoir des systèmes de contrôle et de surveillance des trains sûrs et robustes
Le projet Safe4RAIL-2, financé par l’UE, s’attache à concevoir des solutions de systèmes de contrôle et de surveillance des trains (SCST) de nouvelle génération. Il a pour objectif de définir de nouvelles normes pour les trains et d’ouvrir la voie à des connexions déterministes, sécurisées et interopérables tout en augmentant l’efficacité et la sécurité des SCST. Tous les concepts technologiques feront l’objet d’une validation plus poussée dans le cadre de deux démonstrateurs de laboratoire mis en œuvre dans un projet complémentaire. Les activités du projet contribueront à accroître la flexibilité et la fiabilité des communications des SCST, et à réduire les coûts de développement et de maintenance. Le consortium du projet se compose de six partenaires industriels, d’un institut de recherche et d’un partenaire universitaire, issus de cinq pays européens.
Objectif
Safe4RAIL-2 and its activities will be based on the development of four technological pillars aimed at improving the capabilities of the TCMS:
(1) Integration of the Drive-by-Data (DbD) concept in the train network, i.e. Ethernet Train Backbone Nodes (ETBN), Car Switches and End Devices, using Time-Sensitive Network (TSN) technology for adding determinism to TCMS communications.
(2) Development of LTE devices suitable for the deployment of a Wireless Train Backbone (WLTB), along with analyses including wireless consist communications, virtual coupling and 5G technology.
(3) Integration of a Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) functionality on top of an Integrated Modular Platform (IMP) made up of a Functional Distribution Framework (FDF) platform and a Drive-by-Data communication layer, taking advantage of the expertise obtained from automotive industry specialized on AUTOSAR.
(4) Integration of HVAC functionality in a virtual certification simulation environment including remote Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) tests.
All these technological developments will be further validated in two laboratory demonstrators that will be set up by the Shift2Rail CFM project (S2R-CFM-IP1-02-2018), and will also contribute to standardization in both railway and wireless domains.
These results will increase the flexibility and reliability of the TCMS communications, reduce development and maintenance costs, and achieve novel train functionalities, paying special attention to manufacturer interoperability and the availability of multiple sources.
The consortium consists of 8 partners with specific industrial profiles and expertise in key technologies from five European countries, including 6 industrial partners (SMEs and large companies), 1 research institution and 1 academic partner. Such an industry-oriented consortium has been considered crucial to bring the selected technologies to higher Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) up to TRL-5.
