Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for route handling of a regional centralized control station is based on a CTC3.0 technology, and includes the following steps: step (1): generating multi-station train and shunting plans according to a multi-station planning terminal, and executing steps (2) and (4) at the same time; step (2): sending the train plan to an autonomous computer to generate a train route sequence, and executing step (3); step (3): sending, by the autonomous computer, the train route sequence to a regional centralized control route handling terminal; step (4): compiling, by the multi-station planning terminal, an automatically generated shunting route sequence in the shunting plan, and executing step (5); and step (5): synchronizing, by a center service, the shunting route sequence to the regional centralized control route handling terminal.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of a regional centralized control station, the method being based on a CTC3.0 technology, and comprising the following steps: step (1): generating a multi-station train plan and a multi-station shunting plan according to a multi-station planning terminal, and executing steps (2) and (4) at the same time; step (2): sending the train plan to an autonomous computer to generate a train route sequence, and executing step (3); step (3): sending, by the autonomous computer, the train route sequence to a regional centralized control route handling terminal; step (4): compiling, by the multi-station planning terminal, an automatically generated shunting route sequence in the shunting plan, and executing step (5); and step (5): synchronizing, by a center service, the shunting route sequence to the regional centralized control route handling terminal, wherein the train route sequence and the shunting sequence are generated at the same time and handled by the same regional centralized control route handling terminal to be displayed in a same interface of the same regional centralized control route handling terminal, wherein a specific process of displaying, by the same interface of the same regional centralized control route handling terminal, the train route sequence is as follows: 1) according to the multi-station train plan, automatically calculating, by the autonomous computer, the train route to generate the train route sequence; 2) sending, by the autonomous computer, the train route sequence to the regional centralized control route handling terminal after the train route sequence changes according to a record of the regional centralized control route handling terminal; and 3) displaying, by the regional centralized control route handling terminal, the train route sequence, and wherein a specific process of displaying, by the same interface of the same regional centralized control route handling terminal, the shunting route sequence is as follows: 1) compiling or receiving, by the multi-station planning terminal, the shunting plan; 2) automatically calculating, by the multi-station planning terminal, the shunting route sequence according to the compiled shunting plan; 3) releasing, by the multi-station planning terminal, the shunting plan to the regional centralized control route handling terminal; and 4) displaying, by the regional centralized control route handling terminal, the shunting route sequence. 2. The CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of the regional centralized control station according to claim 1 , wherein the train route sequence is displayed at an upper side of the interface of the regional centralized control route handling terminal. 3. The CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of the regional centralized control station according to claim 1 , wherein the shunting route sequence is displayed at a lower side of the interface of the regional centralized control route handling terminal. 4. The CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of the regional centralized control station according to claim 1 , wherein a state of the regional centralized control route handling terminal to handle the train route sequence and the shunting_route sequence is automatically judged by a system, a prompt is sent to a signaler, and finally, a confirmation is made by the signaler. 5. The CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of the regional centralized control station according to claim 1 , wherein the multi-station train and shunting plans are subjected to a safety inspection by the autonomous computer at a background, and an unsafe route failed to pass the inspection is unable to handle. 6. The CTC3.0-based implementation method for route handling of the regional centralized control station according to claim 5 , wherein the safety inspection comprises an equipment lockout inspection, a diverging failure inspection, an electricity area inspection, a route conflict inspection and a separating equipment presence or absence inspection.
