Objectives and competences
- Aim of this subject is to teach students to describe main railway traffic automatisation procedures. They will identify elements of technical interoperability of infrastructure and suprastucture in railway traffic and name technical standards of interoperability. They will differentiate railway technical systems in regard to track gauge, catenary, signalling and loading gauge. They will list types of cross border railway connections and show working of railway automatisation in real life application
- interoperability
Content (Syllabus outline)
- Generally about automatisation railway traffic
- Technical and technological automatisation
- Differences in railway systems over the world
- Cross – border railway connections
- Generally about technical interoperability
- Technical standards of intreoparability
- Supra and infrastructure intreoperability
- Operational interoperability
- Technology and operative railway management
Learning and teaching methods
Lecture and practice are foreseen, theoretically knowledge are examined with paper tests. Seminar work from concrete real example on automatisation of railway traffic is also foreseen to be done with software Opentrack..
Intended learning outcomes - knowledge and understanding
