| Summary: | The existing fixed block signalling needs to optimize so the capacity of railroad track
will increase as well as the number of passengers. By using the Communication Based
Train Control (CBTC) technology, all trains continuously communicating their exact
position. Therefore, the safety distance was no longer a static entity but an adjustabel
distance based on a real-time calculation of the train speed; there is no longer wasted
space so the capacity of railroad track will increase. In this research, the prototype
form implemented on the miniatur electric train with scale 1:87 ratio due to the original
train. The signalling utilizing the electromagnetic fields and radio frequency
identification (RFID) to determine position of a train. The electromagnetic field
streamed along the loop cable which is crossed at every block (23 cm). The percentage
of crossed points and tags can be read by microcontroller is 100% for all speeds from
2,08 cm/s until 70,34 cm/s or in the real world is from 6,51 km/hour until 220,30
km/hour. |
