Abstract:The objectives of this project were: • Assessing compatibility and determining how the proposed VBTC concept could be integrated with and enhance the existing overlay Interoperable Train Control (ITC) PTC system as well as the Quasi-Moving Block (QMB) concept • Analyzing the performance of VBTC and estimating the potential capacity benefits when integrated with ITC PTC and QMB • Acquiring and testing a VBTC prototype for functional and performance demonstration. Evaluating the VBTC prototype’s ability to perform properly under varying conditions and scenarios. Recording and analyzing the results. • Incorporating the observed results from testing of the VBTC prototype into the analysis to validate the potential benefits that this enhancement brings to train control operation and its degree of robustness.
