Abstract

Originally intended for rapid transit systems, design is also applicable to any rail system where high-speed, short-headway characteristics are required to maintain an efficient flow of passengers or goods. Analytical techniques are used to select system speed commands using a cost-benefit analysis; to determine the speed-location operation profile; to locate signal block boundaries; and to determine signal logic.
