Research and Design Embedded Security Computer Based on TMR for Train-Ground Communication System

Abstract:

Train-Ground communication system is mainly used to complete the communication between the train and the ground, the data which is produced by security computer system is vital to safe operation. The paper focus on the reliability and security technologies of embedded computer system and evaluates the reliability of TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy), which is based on the existing research of security computer and aimed on the equipment of CBTC Train-Ground communication system. The technology of CBTC Train-Ground communication is studied and the structure of the TMR for Train-Ground communication system is designed in the paper. Furthermore, the fault - safety circuits，electromagnetic compatibility technology and rail traffic-related safety standards are analyzed. Finally, the Train-Ground infrared communication security transponder system based TMR is applied to Shanghai People's Square Line 8 subway train’s double-door control system.
