Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of rail transit, and in particular to a flexible marshalling abnormal linkage processing method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Flexible marshalling is a key technology of next-generation train operation control system, mainly including mechanical marshalling and virtual marshalling. Abnormities may occur in each stage of flexible marshalling (such as mechanical marshalling establishment, mechanical unmarshalling, virtual marshalling establishment, virtual marshalling operation and virtual unmarshalling).

[0003] The prior art has the following deficiencies when facing these abnormities: Dependence on manual processing: after the abnormity occurs, the dispatcher needs to manually intervene and set the train operation scheme after unmarshalling, which requires high ability of the dispatcher and has low processing efficiency.

[0004] Lag in communication interruption scene processing: when the marshalling train and the ATS communication are interrupted, the prior art cannot respond in real time and can only manually set the train operation scheme after the communication is restored, which seriously affects the subsequent train operation efficiency and system reliability.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a linkage processing method that can quickly generate a subsequent train operation scheme when abnormities occur in each stage of flexible marshalling. SUMMARY

[0006] In a first aspect, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a flexible marshalling abnormal linkage processing method, which comprises: abnormity detection on the flexible marshalling process; generating an abnormal linkage command corresponding to the detected abnormity; generating a default train operation scheme based on the abnormal linkage command; showing the default train operation scheme to the dispatcher for the dispatcher to set it; generating an abnormal linkage feedback command according to the setting information of the dispatcher; updating the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command.

[0007] In some implementable manners of the first aspect, if the abnormity is a mechanical marshalling establishment abnormity and belongs to the abnormity detected by the on-board equipment in the mechanical marshalling establishment process, the abnormal linkage command corresponding to the detected abnormity is generated; the default train operation scheme is generated based on the abnormal linkage command; the default train operation scheme is shown to the dispatcher for the dispatcher to set it; the abnormal linkage feedback command is generated according to the setting information of the dispatcher; and the train operation information is updated according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, which comprises: The on-board equipment of the train to be mechanically composed sends mechanical composition establishment abnormal information to all station extensions through the gateway computer when detecting an abnormality in the mechanical composition establishment process; The station extension having control over the train to be mechanically composed sends a stop mechanical composition command to the on-board equipment of the train to be mechanically composed through the gateway computer when receiving the mechanical composition establishment abnormal information, so as to stop the mechanical composition, and further generates a mechanical composition establishment abnormal alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server; the station extension having control over the train in front of the train to be mechanically composed generates a mechanical composition establishment abnormal linkage command and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server; The dispatching workstation pops up a mechanical composition establishment abnormal alarm window according to the received mechanical composition establishment abnormal alarm, and generates a default train operation scheme and pops up a default train operation scheme window according to the received mechanical composition establishment abnormal linkage command, so as to enable the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation scheme; The selected dispatching workstation generates an abnormal linkage feedback command according to the setting information of the dispatcher and sends it to the station extension having control over the train to be mechanically composed through the application server; The station extension having control over the train in front of the train to be mechanically composed sends a close abnormal linkage command to all dispatching workstations through the application server in response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, so as to enable the dispatching workstation to close the default train operation scheme window; the station extension having control over the train to be mechanically composed updates train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, sets a head car or a planned car, and sends a new train operation command to the on-board equipment of the train to be mechanically composed through the gateway computer, so as to enable the on-board equipment to execute the new train operation command.

[0008] In some implementable manners of the first aspect, if the abnormality is a mechanical composition establishment abnormality, and all trains to be mechanically composed in the mechanical composition establishment abnormality are in communication interruption with the ATS, corresponding abnormal linkage commands are generated according to the detected abnormality; a default train operation scheme is generated based on the abnormal linkage commands; the default train operation scheme is displayed to the dispatcher, so as to enable the dispatcher to set it; an abnormal linkage feedback command is generated according to the setting information of the dispatcher; train operation information is updated according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, including: The station extension having control over the train to be mechanically composed clears the mechanical composition command that needs to be sent to the on-board equipment of the train to be mechanically composed when detecting that all trains to be mechanically composed are in communication interruption with the ATS; the station extension having control over the train in front of the train to be mechanically composed generates a train to be mechanically composed communication interruption alarm and a mechanical composition establishment abnormal linkage command and sends them to all dispatching workstations through the application server; The dispatching workstation will display a communication interruption alarm window for trains to be mechanically assembled based on the received communication interruption alarm, and will generate a default train operation plan based on the received abnormal linkage command for mechanical assembly and display a default train operation plan window so that the dispatcher can select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan. The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension with control over the mechanically assembled train via the application server. When a station extension with control over the lead car of a mechanical train formation responds to an abnormal linkage feedback command, it sends a command to all dispatching workstations to disable the abnormal linkage, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. The station extension with control over the mechanical train formation updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command and sets the lead car or the planned car.

[0009] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the exception is a mechanical decompilation exception, the method further includes: When the onboard equipment of a mechanically assembled train detects a mechanical disassembly anomaly, it sends a mechanical disassembly anomaly information to all station substations through the gateway computer. When a station substation with control over a mechanically assembled train receives information about a mechanical disassembly anomaly, it sends a stop mechanical disassembly command to the onboard equipment of the mechanically assembled train through the gateway computer so that the mechanical disassembly can be stopped. In addition, it generates a mechanical disassembly anomaly alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server. The dispatch workstation will display a mechanical decoupling anomaly alarm window upon receiving the received mechanical decoupling anomaly alarm. The onboard equipment of mechanically assembled trains performs mechanical de-marshalling and re-marshalling through manual intervention, and sends information on the completion of mechanical de-marshalling and re-marshalling to all station substations through the gateway computer; The station substation with control over the decoupled trains decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows based on the received mechanical decoupling completion information. It also updates the train operation information according to the mechanical decoupling task, sets the lead car or the planned car, and sends new operation commands to the on-board equipment of the decoupled trains through the gateway computer so that the trains can execute the new operation commands.

[0010] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the exception is a virtual train formation establishment exception, and the on-board equipment within the virtual train formation establishment exception detects an exception during the virtual train formation establishment process, then based on the detected exception, a corresponding exception linkage command is generated; a default train operation plan is generated based on the exception linkage command; the default train operation plan is displayed to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can configure it; an exception linkage feedback command is generated based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and train operation information is updated based on the exception linkage feedback command, including: If the onboard equipment of the train to be virtualized detects an anomaly during the virtual formation process, it will send virtual formation establishment anomaly information to all station extensions through the gateway computer. When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train receives an abnormal information about virtual train formation, it sends a stop virtual train formation command to the onboard equipment of the train to be virtual-formed via the gateway computer so that the virtual train formation can be stopped. In addition, it generates a virtual train formation abnormality alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server. The station extension unit with control over the train preceding the virtual train generates a virtual train formation abnormality linkage command and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server. The dispatch workstation will pop up a virtual train formation establishment anomaly alarm window based on the received virtual train formation establishment anomaly linkage command, and generate a default train operation plan and pop up a default train operation plan window based on the received virtual train formation establishment anomaly linkage command, so that the dispatcher can select a dispatch workstation to set the default train operation plan. The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the virtual train formation through the application server. In response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the virtual train formation sends a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. The station extension with control over the virtual train formation updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, sets the lead car or the planned car, and sends a new train operation command to the on-board equipment of the train to be virtually formed through the gateway computer, so that it can execute the new train operation command.

[0011] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the anomaly is a virtual train formation establishment anomaly, and all trains awaiting virtual train formation within the virtual train formation establishment anomaly have their communication with the ATS interrupted, then based on the detected anomaly, a corresponding anomaly linkage command is generated; a default train operation plan is generated based on the anomaly linkage command; the default train operation plan is displayed to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can configure it; anomaly linkage feedback command is generated based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and train operation information is updated based on the anomaly linkage feedback command, including: When a station extension with control over a virtual train detects that all trains to be virtually assembled have lost communication with the ATS, it clears the virtual assembly commands that need to be sent to the onboard equipment of the trains to be virtually assembled. The station extension with control over the train preceding the virtual train generates a communication interruption alarm for the train to be virtually assembled and establishes an abnormal linkage command for virtual assembly, and sends it to all dispatch workstations through the application server. The dispatching workstation will display a communication interruption alarm window for the train to be virtually assembled based on the received alarm, and will generate a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation abnormal linkage command and display a default train operation plan window so that the dispatcher can select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan. The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the virtual train formation through the application server. When a station extension with control over the virtual train formation responds to an abnormal linkage feedback command, it sends a command to all dispatching workstations to disable the abnormal linkage, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. The station extension with control over the virtual train formation updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command and sets the lead car or the planned car.

[0012] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the anomaly is a virtual train formation operation anomaly, and the on-board equipment within the virtual train formation operation anomaly detects an anomaly during virtual train formation operation, then based on the detected anomaly, a corresponding anomaly linkage command is generated; a default train operation plan is generated based on the anomaly linkage command; the default train operation plan is displayed to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can configure it; anomaly linkage feedback command is generated based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and train operation information is updated based on the anomaly linkage feedback command, including: If the onboard equipment of the virtual train detects an abnormality during the virtual train formation process, it will automatically disassemble the train and send the virtual train formation operation abnormality information and virtual disassembly completion information to all station terminals through the gateway computer. Upon receiving information about virtual train formation operation anomalies and virtual train formation completion, the station extension unit with control over the de-formed train generates a virtual train formation operation anomaly alarm and a virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command and sends them to all dispatch workstations through the application server. In addition, based on the virtual train formation completion information, the train formation window is decomposed into two single-car train windows, the de-formed train is automatically downgraded to a manual train, and a new train operation command is sent to the on-board equipment of the de-formed train through the gateway computer so that it can execute the new train operation command. The dispatch workstation will display a virtual train formation operation anomaly alarm window based on the received virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command, and will generate a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command and display a default train operation plan window, so that the dispatcher can select a dispatch workstation to set the default train operation plan. The selected dispatch workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the decompiled preceding train through the application server. The station extension with control over the decoupled preceding train responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, sets the lead car or the planned car, and sends a new train operation command to the on-board equipment of the decoupled preceding train through the gateway computer so that it can execute the new train operation command.

[0013] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the anomaly is a virtual train formation operation anomaly, and it belongs to the category of virtual train formation operation anomalies where communication between the currently running virtual train formation and the ATS is interrupted, then based on the detected anomaly, a corresponding anomaly linkage command is generated; a default train operation plan is generated based on the anomaly linkage command; the default train operation plan is displayed to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can configure it; anomaly linkage feedback command is generated based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and train operation information is updated based on the anomaly linkage feedback command, including: When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train formation detects a communication interruption between a virtual train formation and the ATS (Automatic Train System), it generates a communication interruption alarm and a virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command and sends them to all dispatch workstations via the application server. The dispatching workstation will display a virtual train communication interruption alarm window based on the received virtual train formation operation alarm, and generate a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation operation abnormality linkage command and display a default train operation plan window. This will allow the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan after contacting the driver to confirm that the virtual train formation has been de-formed. The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the virtual train formation through the application server. The station extension with control over the virtual train formation responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server. This allows the dispatching workstations to close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it automatically decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows, updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, and sets the first car or the planned car.

[0014] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the exception is a virtual decompression exception, and the on-board device detects an exception during the virtual decompression process, the method further includes: If the onboard equipment of the virtual train detects an anomaly during the virtual disassembly process, it will automatically disassemble the train and send virtual disassembly anomaly information and virtual disassembly completion information to all station terminals through the gateway computer. Upon receiving virtual decoupling anomaly information and virtual decoupling completion information, the station extension with control over the decoupling train generates a virtual decoupling anomaly alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations via the application server. This prompts the dispatching workstations to display the virtual decoupling anomaly alarm window. In addition, based on the received virtual decoupling completion information, the train number window is split into two single-car number windows. The train operation information is updated according to the virtual decoupling task, the lead car or planned car is set, and a new operation command is sent to the onboard equipment of the decoupling train through the gateway computer so that the train can execute the new operation command.

[0015] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, if the anomaly is a virtual disassembly anomaly, and the communication between the virtual train undergoing virtual disassembly and the ATS is interrupted, then based on the detected anomaly, a corresponding anomaly linkage command is generated; a default train operation plan is generated based on the anomaly linkage command; the default train operation plan is displayed to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can configure it; anomaly linkage feedback command is generated based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and train operation information is updated based on the anomaly linkage feedback command, including: When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train detects a communication interruption between a virtual train undergoing virtual disassembly and the ATS, it clears the virtual train formation commands that need to be sent to the onboard equipment of the virtual train formation, generates a virtual disassembly train communication interruption alarm and a virtual disassembly anomaly linkage command, and sends it to all dispatch workstations through the application server. The dispatching workstation will display a virtual train communication interruption alarm window based on the received virtual train disassembly alarm, and generate a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train disassembly abnormal linkage command and display a default train operation plan window. This will allow the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan after contacting the driver to confirm that the virtual train has been disassembled. The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the virtual train formation through the application server. The station extension with control over the virtual train formation responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server. This allows the dispatching workstations to close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it automatically decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows, updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, and sets the first car or the planned car.

[0016] Secondly, embodiments of this disclosure provide a flexible grouping and linkage processing device, the device comprising: Anomaly detection module is used to detect anomalies in the flexible grouping process; The abnormal linkage command generation module is used to generate corresponding abnormal linkage commands based on the detected abnormalities. The default driving plan generation module is used to generate default driving plans based on abnormal linkage commands; The default driving plan display module is used to show the default driving plan to the dispatcher so that the dispatcher can set it. The abnormal linkage feedback command generation module is used to generate abnormal linkage feedback commands based on the dispatcher's settings.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0024] To address the problems in the background art, this disclosure provides a method, apparatus, device, and storage medium for handling abnormal train formations. Specifically, it involves: detecting abnormalities during the flexible train formation process; generating corresponding abnormality linkage commands based on the detected abnormalities; generating a default train operation plan based on the abnormality linkage commands; displaying the default train operation plan to the dispatcher for configuration; generating an abnormality linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's configuration information; and updating train operation information based on the abnormality linkage feedback command. This approach enables rapid generation of subsequent train operation plans when abnormalities occur at various stages of flexible train formation, significantly improving the efficiency of handling abnormalities in flexible train formations and enhancing the operational safety of flexible train formations.

[0025] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes a flexible grouping abnormal linkage processing method, apparatus, device, and storage medium provided by the present disclosure through specific embodiments.

[0026] Figure 1 A flowchart of a flexible grouping anomaly linkage handling method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown, such as... Figure 1 As shown, method 100 may include the following steps: S110 performs anomaly detection during the flexible grouping process.

[0030] S150 generates an anomaly linkage feedback command based on the dispatcher's settings.

[0031] S160, update train operation information based on abnormal linkage feedback command.

[0032] In this embodiment of the disclosure, by constructing an anomaly linkage handling mechanism covering the entire process of flexible formation, subsequent train operation plans can be quickly generated when anomalies occur at each stage of flexible formation. This overcomes the core limitations of existing technologies that rely on manual handling and have delayed response in communication interruption scenarios, significantly improves the efficiency of flexible formation anomaly handling, and helps to enhance the operational safety of flexible formation.

[0033] To facilitate further understanding, the above content will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments: It should be understood that flexible formation includes two methods: mechanical formation and virtual formation. Abnormalities may occur at each stage of flexible formation (such as mechanical formation establishment, mechanical formation dissolution, virtual formation establishment, virtual formation operation, and virtual formation dissolution). Taking mechanical formation establishment abnormality, mechanical formation dissolution abnormality, virtual formation establishment abnormality, virtual formation operation abnormality, and virtual formation dissolution abnormality as examples respectively, the corresponding linkage processing procedures will be introduced in detail below.

[0034] (1) Abnormality in mechanical formation establishment During the process of mechanical formation establishment, there are two common abnormalities, namely, the on-vehicle equipment detects an abnormality during the mechanical formation establishment process, and the trains to be mechanically formed have both lost communication with the ATS (that is, both of the two trains to be mechanically formed have lost communication with the ATS). For the above two types of abnormalities, the corresponding linkage processing procedures are as follows: (1.1) The on-vehicle equipment detects an abnormality during the mechanical formation establishment process For this abnormality, the linkage processing procedure is as Figure 2 shown and includes: When the on-vehicle equipment of the train to be mechanically formed (that is, the train that is currently performing the mechanical formation task) detects an abnormality during the mechanical formation establishment process, it sends mechanical formation establishment abnormality information to all station sub-units through the gateway computer.

[0035] When the station sub-unit that has control over the train to be mechanically formed receives the mechanical formation establishment abnormality information, it sends a stop mechanical formation command to the on-vehicle equipment of the train to be mechanically formed through the gateway computer so that it stops the mechanical formation. In addition, it generates a mechanical formation establishment abnormality alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server. The station sub-unit that has control over the leading train to be mechanically formed generates a mechanical formation establishment abnormality linkage command and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server.

[0036] The dispatching workstation pops up a mechanical formation establishment abnormality alarm window according to the received mechanical formation establishment abnormality alarm, and generates a default train operation plan and pops up a default train operation plan window according to the received mechanical formation establishment abnormality linkage command, so that the dispatcher can select a certain dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan.

[0037] The selected dispatching workstation generates an abnormality linkage feedback command according to the dispatcher's setting information and sends it to the station sub-unit that has control over the train to be mechanically formed through the application server.

[0038] In response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the preceding car in the mechanical train formation sends a command to disable abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations via the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. Based on the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the train in the mechanical train formation updates the train operation information, sets the lead car or planned car, and sends new operation commands to the onboard equipment of the train to be mechanically formed via the gateway computer, so that it can execute the new operation commands.

[0039] In summary, the embodiments disclosed herein enable the coordinated operation of onboard equipment, gateway computer, station extension and application server and dispatch workstation. When the onboard equipment detects an anomaly during the mechanical train formation process, it can automatically trigger a stop command, generate an alarm for the abnormal mechanical train formation and a default train operation plan, and finally issue a new train operation command after confirmation by the dispatcher, thereby ensuring the safe operation of trains and quickly restoring orderly train operation.

[0040] (1.2) Communication between all mechanically assembled trains and the ATS is interrupted. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it includes: When a station extension with control over a train undergoing mechanical marshalling detects a communication interruption between all trains awaiting mechanical marshalling and the ATS (Automatic Train System), it clears the mechanical marshalling commands that need to be sent to the onboard equipment of the trains awaiting mechanical marshalling. The station extension with control over the preceding train of the train undergoing mechanical marshalling generates a communication interruption alarm for the trains awaiting mechanical marshalling and establishes an abnormal linkage command for mechanical marshalling, which is then sent to all dispatching workstations via the application server.

[0041] The dispatching workstation will display a communication interruption alarm window for trains awaiting mechanical formation based on the received communication interruption alarm. It will also generate a default train operation plan based on the received abnormal linkage command for mechanical formation and display a default train operation plan window, so that the dispatcher can select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan.

[0042] The selected dispatching workstation generates an anomaly response command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension with control over the mechanically assembled train via the application server.

[0043] In response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the preceding car in the mechanical train formation sends a command to disable abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations via the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. The station extension with control over the mechanical train formation updates the train operation information based on the abnormal linkage feedback command, setting the lead car or the planned car.

[0044] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure can automatically clear the mechanical formation command by the station extension with control of the trains to be mechanically formed when all trains to be mechanically formed lose communication with the ATS. It also generates alarm and abnormal linkage commands and notifies all dispatching workstations through the application server to pop up alarm and default train operation plan windows. The dispatcher can set the plan and provide feedback through any dispatching workstation. The station extension updates the train operation information and sets the lead car or planned car accordingly, thereby improving the efficiency of abnormal response, ensuring train operation safety and reducing manual intervention.

[0045] (1.3) Main contents of relevant orders and driving plans The aforementioned abnormal linkage command for establishing mechanical train formation mainly includes the train group number of the car preceding the train to be mechanically formed, the train group number of the car following the train to be mechanically formed, the train type after formation, the destination after formation, and the train number after formation. If the mechanical formation task to be performed by the train to be mechanically formed results in a planned train after formation, then the train type after formation in the command will be a planned train, the destination after formation will be the planned destination, and the train number after formation will be the planned train number. If the mechanical formation task to be performed by the train to be mechanically formed results in a lead train after formation, then the train type after formation in the command will be a lead train, and the destination after formation will be the lead train's destination.

[0046] The aforementioned default train operation plan form is used to determine the subsequent operation plan for the two cars that have encountered a mechanical train formation establishment error. This includes the train group number of the preceding car, the train group number of the following car, the train type of the preceding car, the destination of the preceding car, the train number of the preceding car, the train type of the following car, the destination of the following car, and the train number of the following car.

[0047] The default train operation plan is as follows: If the train type after formation in the abnormal linkage command for mechanical train formation is a planned train, then the preceding train is a planned train and continues running according to the train number after formation in the command; the following train is the first train and continues running according to the destination after formation in the command. If the train type after formation in the command is the first train, then both the preceding and following trains are first trains and continue running according to the destination after formation in the command. The dispatcher can directly execute the default train operation plan, or set the train type, destination, and train number information for the preceding and following trains according to the actual situation.

[0048] The aforementioned abnormal linkage feedback commands mainly include the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train, the destination of the preceding train, the train number of the preceding train, the train type of the following train, the destination of the following train, and the train number of the following train. This information corresponds to the train operation plan set by the dispatcher.

[0049] (2) Abnormal mechanical grouping and disgrouping The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, it includes: When the onboard equipment of a mechanically assembled train (i.e., a train that is performing a mechanical decoupling task) detects an abnormality in the mechanical decoupling, it sends the abnormality information to all station substations through the gateway computer.

[0050] When a station substation with control over a mechanically assembled train receives information about an abnormal mechanical disassembly, it sends a stop mechanical disassembly command to the onboard equipment of the mechanically assembled train via the gateway computer so that the mechanical disassembly can be stopped. In addition, it generates a mechanical disassembly abnormality alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations through the application server.

[0051] The dispatch workstation will display a mechanical decompression anomaly alarm window upon receiving the received mechanical decompression anomaly alarm.

[0052] The onboard equipment of mechanically assembled trains performs mechanical decoupling and reassembly through manual intervention, and sends the mechanical decoupling and reassembly completion information to all station substations through the gateway computer.

[0053] The station substation with control over the decoupled trains decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows based on the received mechanical decoupling completion information. It also updates the train operation information according to the mechanical decoupling task, sets the lead car or the planned car, and sends new operation commands to the on-board equipment of the decoupled trains through the gateway computer so that the trains can execute the new operation commands.

[0054] Specifically, updating train operation information based on mechanical decoupling tasks means: For the preceding train after decoupling, if the preceding train in the mechanical decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is a planned train, then the preceding train after decoupling is set as a planned train, and its train number is the same as the train number of the preceding train after decoupling in the mechanical decoupling task; if the preceding train in the mechanical decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is the first car after decoupling, then the preceding train after decoupling is set as the first car, and its destination is the same as the destination of the preceding train after decoupling in the mechanical decoupling task. For the following train after decoupling, if the following train in the mechanical decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is a planned train, then the following train after decoupling is set as a planned train, and its train number is the same as the train number of the following train after decoupling in the mechanical decoupling task; if the following train in the mechanical decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is the first car after decoupling, then the following train after decoupling is set as the first car, and its destination is the same as the destination of the following train after decoupling in the mechanical decoupling task.

[0055] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure achieve rapid response and automated handling of mechanical decoupling anomalies. When the onboard equipment detects and reports a mechanical decoupling anomaly, the station substation with control can immediately issue a stop decoupling command to the train via the gateway computer, effectively preventing the fault from escalating. Simultaneously, an alarm is issued to all dispatching workstations via the application server to ensure information synchronization. After manual intervention completes the decoupling, the system can automatically decompose the train number window based on the completion information, update train operation information, and issue new train operation commands, significantly improving fault handling efficiency and the orderliness of train operation.

[0056] (3) Abnormal virtual group creation During the virtual train formation process, two common anomalies occur: the onboard equipment detects an anomaly during virtual train formation and both trains to be virtually formed lose communication with the ATS (i.e., both cars to be virtually formed lose communication with the ATS). The corresponding linkage handling procedures for these two types of anomalies are as follows: (3.1) The on-board equipment detected an anomaly during the virtual formation creation process. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, it includes: If the onboard equipment of the train to be virtually assembled (i.e., the train currently performing the virtual assembly task) detects an anomaly during the virtual assembly establishment process, it will send a virtual assembly establishment anomaly information to all station extensions through the gateway computer.

[0057] When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train formation receives an anomaly message regarding virtual train formation establishment, it sends a stop virtual train formation command to the onboard equipment of the train to be virtually formed via the gateway computer, thus halting the virtual train formation. Additionally, it generates a virtual train formation establishment anomaly alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations via the application server. Similarly, a station extension unit with control over the train preceding the virtual train formation generates a virtual train formation establishment anomaly linkage command and sends it to all dispatching workstations via the application server.

[0058] The dispatch workstation generates a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation abnormality alarm and pops up a virtual train formation abnormality alarm window. It also generates a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation abnormality linkage command and pops up a default train operation plan window, so that the dispatcher can select a dispatch workstation to set the default train operation plan.

[0059] The selected dispatch workstation generates anomaly response commands based on the dispatcher's settings and sends them to the station extensions that have control over the virtual train formation via the application server.

[0060] In response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the preceding train in the virtual train formation sends a command to disable abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations via the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. Based on the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the train in the virtual train formation updates the train operation information, sets the lead car or planned car, and sends new operation commands to the onboard equipment of the train to be virtually formed via the gateway computer, so that it can execute the new operation commands.

[0061] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the automatic sending of a stop virtual train formation command, generation of alarm and anomaly linkage commands through the coordinated linkage of the onboard equipment, gateway computer, station extension, application server and dispatch workstation when an anomaly is detected during the virtual train formation establishment process. The dispatcher sets the default train operation plan through the dispatch workstation, and the station extension updates the train operation information and sends new train operation commands, thereby ensuring train safety, rapid response to anomalies, and improving the reliability and dispatch efficiency of the virtual train formation system.

[0062] (3.2) Communication between all virtual train formation trains and ATS is interrupted. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, it includes: When a station extension with control over a train undergoing virtual formation detects a communication interruption between all trains to be virtually formed and the ATS (Automatic Train System), it clears the virtual formation commands that need to be sent to the onboard equipment of the trains to be virtually formed. The station extension with control over the preceding train in the virtual formation generates a communication interruption alarm for the trains to be virtually formed and establishes an abnormal linkage command for the virtual formation, sending it to all dispatch workstations via the application server.

[0063] The dispatching workstation displays a communication interruption alarm window for trains to be virtually assembled based on the received alarm. It also generates a default train operation plan based on the received virtual train formation abnormal linkage command and displays a default train operation plan window, allowing the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan.

[0064] The selected dispatch workstation generates anomaly response commands based on the dispatcher's settings and sends them to the station extensions that have control over the virtual train formation via the application server.

[0065] In response to the abnormal linkage feedback command, the station extension with control over the virtual train formation sends a command to disable abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations via the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. The station extension with control over the virtual train formation updates the train operation information based on the abnormal linkage feedback command, setting the lead car or the planned car.

[0066] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the automatic clearing of virtual formation commands, generation of alarms and establishment of abnormal linkage commands between virtual formation and all trains to be virtually formed when communication between the trains to be virtually formed and the ATS is interrupted. The station extension with control over the trains to be virtually formed automatically clears the virtual formation commands, generates alarms and establishes abnormal linkage commands with the virtual formation, and notifies all dispatching workstations via the application server to pop up alarm and default train operation plan windows. The dispatcher can set the plan and provide feedback, and the station extension updates the train operation information accordingly (such as setting the lead car or the planned car), thereby automating the handling of abnormalities, improving response efficiency and train operation safety.

[0067] (3.3) Main contents of relevant commands and driving plans The aforementioned virtual train formation establishment abnormal linkage command mainly includes the train group number of the train preceding the train to be virtually formed, the train group number of the train following the train to be virtually formed, the train type after formation, the destination after formation, and the train number after formation. If the virtual formation task to be performed by the train to be virtually formed results in a planned train after formation, then the train type after formation in the command will be a planned train, the destination after formation will be the planned destination, and the train number after formation will be the planned train number. If the virtual formation task to be performed by the train to be virtually formed results in a first-car train after formation, then the train type after formation in the command will be a first-car train, the destination after formation will be the first-car destination, and the train number after formation will be the first-car train number.

[0068] The aforementioned default train operation plan form is used to determine the subsequent operation plan for the two trains that have encountered a virtual train formation creation error. This includes the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train, the destination of the preceding train, the train number of the preceding train, the train type of the following train, the destination of the following train, and the train number of the following train.

[0069] The default train operation plan is as follows: If the train type after formation in the virtual train formation creation abnormal linkage command is a planned train, then the preceding train is a planned train and continues running according to the train number after formation in the command; the following train is the first train and continues running according to the destination after formation in the command. If the train type after formation in the command is the first train, then both the preceding and following trains are first trains and continue running according to the destination after formation in the command. The dispatcher can directly execute the default train operation plan, or set the train type, destination, and train number information of the preceding and following trains according to the actual situation.

[0070] The aforementioned abnormal linkage feedback commands mainly include the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train, the destination of the preceding train, the train number of the preceding train, the train type of the following train, the destination of the following train, and the train number of the following train. This information corresponds to the train operation plan set by the dispatcher.

[0071] (4) Abnormal operation of virtual grouping During virtual train formation operation, two common anomalies occur: the onboard equipment detects an anomaly during virtual formation operation, and communication between the virtual train formation and the ATS (Automatic Train Service) is interrupted. The corresponding handling procedures for these two types of anomalies are as follows: (4.1) The onboard equipment detected an anomaly during the virtual formation operation. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, it includes: When the onboard equipment of a virtual train (i.e., a train currently in virtual formation operation) detects an anomaly during virtual formation operation, it automatically disassembles the train and sends virtual formation operation anomaly information and virtual disassembly completion information to all station extensions via the gateway computer.

[0072] Upon receiving information about virtual train formation operation anomalies and virtual decoupling completion, the station substations with control over the decoupling trains generate virtual train formation operation anomaly alarms and virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage commands and send them to all dispatching workstations via the application server. In addition, based on the virtual decoupling completion information, the train formation window is divided into two single-car train windows, the decoupling train is automatically downgraded to a manual train, and a new train operation command is sent to the onboard equipment of the decoupling train via the gateway computer so that it can execute the new train operation command.

[0073] The dispatching workstation displays a virtual train formation operation anomaly alarm window upon receiving the virtual train formation operation anomaly alarm, and generates a default train operation plan and displays a default train operation plan window upon receiving the virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command, so that the dispatcher can select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan.

[0074] The selected dispatch workstation generates an anomaly response command based on the dispatcher's settings and sends it to the station extension that has control over the decommissioned preceding train via the application server.

[0075] The station extension with control over the decoupled preceding train responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server, so that the dispatching workstations can close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, sets the lead car or the planned car, and sends a new train operation command to the on-board equipment of the decoupled preceding train through the gateway computer so that it can execute the new train operation command.

[0076] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the onboard equipment to automatically disassemble the train when it detects an anomaly during virtual train formation operation. The onboard equipment then sends the virtual train formation operation anomaly information and virtual disassembly completion information to all station extensions via the gateway computer. This triggers the station extensions to downgrade the train after disassembly, generate a virtual train formation operation anomaly alarm and linkage command, and the dispatch workstation displays an alarm and default train operation plan window for dispatchers to set. The application server then feeds back the anomaly linkage command, causing the station extensions to update train operation information and send a new train operation command to the train preceding the disassembled train, ensuring rapid anomaly response and safe train operation control.

[0077] (4.2) Communication between the virtual train formation and the ATS is interrupted during virtual formation operation. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 8As shown, it includes: When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train formation detects a communication interruption between a virtual train formation and the ATS (Automatic Train Service), it generates a communication interruption alarm and a virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command, and sends them to all dispatch workstations via the application server.

[0078] The dispatching workstation displays a virtual train communication interruption alarm window upon receiving the virtual train formation operation alarm. It also generates a default train operation plan and displays a default train operation plan window based on the received virtual train formation operation abnormality linkage command. This allows the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan after contacting the driver to confirm that the virtual train formation has been de-formed.

[0079] The selected dispatching workstation generates anomaly response commands based on the dispatcher's settings and sends them to the station extensions that have control over the virtual train formation via the application server.

[0080] The station extension with control over the virtual train formation responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server. This allows the dispatching workstations to close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it automatically decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows, updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, and sets the first car or the planned car.

[0081] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the automatic generation of a train communication interruption alarm and a virtual train operation anomaly linkage command via station extensions when communication between the virtual train formation and the ATS is interrupted. This command is then sent to all dispatching workstations via the application server. The dispatching workstations display alarm windows and default train operation plan windows. After the dispatcher sets the plan, an anomaly linkage feedback command is generated. The station extensions respond to the command and automatically decompose the train formation number window, update train operation information, and set the lead car or planned car. This improves the automation level of anomaly handling, operational safety, and dispatching efficiency.

[0082] (4.3) Main contents of relevant orders and driving plans The aforementioned virtual operation anomaly linkage commands mainly include the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train after decoupling, the destination of the preceding train after decoupling, the train number of the preceding train after decoupling, the train type of the following train after decoupling, the destination of the following train after decoupling, and the train number of the following train after decoupling. Regarding the information of the preceding train after decoupling, if the assembly train is a planned train, then the train type of the preceding train after decoupling is a planned train, and the train number of the preceding train after decoupling is the train number of the assembly train; if the assembly train is the first train, then the train type of the preceding train after decoupling is set to the first train, and the destination of the preceding train after decoupling is the destination of the assembly train. Regarding the information of the following train after decoupling, the train type of the following train after decoupling is the first train; if the assembly train is a planned train, then the destination of the following train after decoupling is the planned destination of the assembly train; if the assembly train is the first train, then the destination of the following train after decoupling is the destination of the assembly train.

[0083] The aforementioned default train operation plan form is used to determine the subsequent operation plan for the two cars after a virtual train formation operation error occurs. This includes the train group number of the preceding car, the train group number of the following car, the train type of the preceding car, the destination of the preceding car, the train number of the preceding car, the train type of the following car, the destination of the following car, and the train number of the following car.

[0084] The default train operation plan is as follows: For the preceding train after decoupling, if the train type of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command is a planned train, then the preceding train is a planned train and continues running according to the train number of the preceding train after decoupling in the command; if the train type of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual train formation operation anomaly linkage command is the first car, then the preceding train is the first car and continues running according to the destination of the preceding train after decoupling in the command. For the following train after decoupling, the train type of the following train after decoupling is the first car by default, and the destination of the following train after decoupling is the destination of the following train after decoupling in the command by default. The dispatcher can directly execute the default train operation plan, or can set the train type, destination, and train number information of the preceding and following trains according to the actual situation.

[0085] The aforementioned abnormal linkage feedback commands mainly include the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train, the destination of the preceding train, the train number of the preceding train, the train type of the following train, the destination of the following train, and the train number of the following train. This information corresponds to the train operation plan set by the dispatcher.

[0086] (5) Virtual grouping and ungrouping anomaly During virtual train formation operation, two common anomalies occur: the onboard equipment detects an anomaly during the virtual disassembly process, and communication between the virtual train formation undergoing virtual disassembly and the ATS (Automatic Train Service) is interrupted. The corresponding handling procedures for these two types of anomalies are as follows: (5.1) The on-board equipment detected an anomaly during the virtual decompilation process. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 9 As shown, it includes: If the onboard equipment of a virtual train (i.e., a train performing a virtual decoupling task) detects an anomaly during the virtual decoupling process, it will automatically decouple abnormally and send virtual decoupling anomaly information and virtual decoupling completion information to all station extensions through the gateway computer.

[0087] Upon receiving virtual decoupling anomaly information and virtual decoupling completion information, the station extension with control over the decoupling train generates a virtual decoupling anomaly alarm and sends it to all dispatching workstations via the application server. This prompts the dispatching workstations to display the virtual decoupling anomaly alarm window. In addition, based on the received virtual decoupling completion information, the train number window is split into two single-car number windows. The train operation information is updated according to the virtual decoupling task, the lead car or planned car is set, and a new operation command is sent to the onboard equipment of the decoupling train through the gateway computer so that the train can execute the new operation command.

[0088] Specifically, updating train operation information based on virtual decoupling tasks means: For the preceding train after decoupling, if the preceding train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is a planned train, then the preceding train after decoupling is set as a planned train, and its train number is the same as the train number of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task; if the preceding train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is the first train after decoupling, then the preceding train after decoupling is set as the first train, and its destination is the same as the destination of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task. For the following train after decoupling, if the following train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is a planned train, then the following train after decoupling is set as a planned train, and its train number is the same as the train number of the following train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task; if the following train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the marshalling train is the first train after decoupling, then the following train after decoupling is set as the first train, and its destination is the same as the destination of the following train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task.

[0089] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the onboard equipment to automatically perform abnormal decoupling when it detects an anomaly during the virtual decoupling process. The onboard equipment then sends virtual decoupling anomaly information and virtual decoupling completion information to all station extensions via the gateway computer. The station extensions with control generate a virtual decoupling anomaly alarm and send it to all dispatch workstations via the application server, displaying an alarm window. Simultaneously, the train number window is split into two single-car number windows, updating train operation information and setting the lead car or planned car. Finally, a new operation command is sent to the decoupling train via the gateway computer, thereby ensuring automated, timely, and safe train operation.

[0090] (5.2) Communication between the virtual train being virtually assembled and the ATS is interrupted. The corresponding handling process for this exception is as follows: Figure 10As shown, it includes: When a station extension unit with control over a virtual train detects a communication interruption between a virtual train undergoing virtual disassembly and the ATS, it clears the virtual train formation commands that need to be sent to the onboard equipment of the virtual train formation, generates a virtual disassembly train communication interruption alarm and a virtual disassembly anomaly linkage command, and sends it to all dispatch workstations through the application server.

[0091] The dispatching workstation displays a virtual train communication interruption alarm window upon receiving the virtual train disassembly alarm, and generates a default train operation plan and displays a default train operation plan window based on the received virtual train disassembly anomaly linkage command. This allows the dispatcher to select a dispatching workstation to set the default train operation plan after contacting the driver to confirm that the virtual train has been disassembled.

[0092] The selected dispatching workstation generates anomaly response commands based on the dispatcher's settings and sends them to the station extensions that have control over the virtual train formation via the application server.

[0093] The station extension with control over the virtual train formation responds to the abnormal linkage feedback command by sending a command to close the abnormal linkage to all dispatching workstations through the application server. This allows the dispatching workstations to close the default train operation plan window. In addition, it automatically decomposes the train number window into two single-car number windows, updates the train operation information according to the abnormal linkage feedback command, and sets the first car or the planned car.

[0094] The aforementioned virtual decoupling anomaly linkage command mainly includes the train group number of the preceding train in the virtual train formation, the train group number of the following train in the virtual train formation, the train type of the preceding train after decoupling, the destination of the preceding train after decoupling, the train number of the preceding train after decoupling, the train type of the following train after decoupling, the destination of the following train after decoupling, and the train number of the following train after decoupling. Regarding the information of the preceding train after decoupling, if the preceding train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the virtual train formation is a planned train after decoupling, then the train type of the preceding train after decoupling is a planned train, and the train number of the preceding train after decoupling is the same as the train number of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task; if the preceding train in the virtual decoupling task performed by the virtual train formation is the first train after decoupling, then the train type of the preceding train after decoupling is set to the first train, and the destination of the preceding train after decoupling is the same as the destination of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling task. Regarding the information of the following cars after disassembly, if the following car after the virtual disassembly task performed by the virtual train is a planned car, then the following car after disassembly is set as a planned car, and its train number is the same as the train number of the following car after disassembly in the virtual disassembly task; if the following car after the virtual disassembly task performed by the virtual train is the first car, then the following car after disassembly is set as the first car, and its destination is the same as the destination of the following car after disassembly in the virtual disassembly task.

[0095] The aforementioned default train operation plan form is used to determine the subsequent operation plan for the two cars after the virtual abnormal decomposition of the virtual train formation, including the train group number of the preceding car, the train group number of the following car, the train type of the preceding car, the destination of the preceding car, the train number of the preceding car, the train type of the following car, the destination of the following car, and the train number of the following car.

[0096] The default train operation plan is as follows: For the preceding train after decoupling, if the train type of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling anomaly linkage command is a scheduled train, then the preceding train is a scheduled train and continues running according to the train number of the preceding train after decoupling in the command; if the train type of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling anomaly linkage command is the first train, then the preceding train is the first train and continues running according to the destination of the preceding train after decoupling in the command. For the following train after decoupling, if the train type of the following train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling anomaly linkage command is a scheduled train, then the following train is a scheduled train and continues running according to the train number of the following train after decoupling in the command; if the train type of the preceding train after decoupling in the virtual decoupling anomaly linkage command is the first train, then the preceding train is the first train and continues running according to the destination of the following train after decoupling in the command. The dispatcher can directly execute the default train operation plan, or can set the train type, destination, and train number information of the preceding and following trains according to the actual situation.

[0097] The aforementioned abnormal linkage feedback commands mainly include the train group number of the preceding train, the train group number of the following train, the train type of the preceding train, the destination of the preceding train, the train number of the preceding train, the train type of the following train, the destination of the following train, and the train number of the following train. This information corresponds to the train operation plan set by the dispatcher.

[0098] In summary, the embodiments of this disclosure enable the station extension with control authority to automatically clear the virtual train formation command and trigger a system-wide alarm and linkage when communication between the virtual train formation and the ATS is interrupted during virtual disassembly. The dispatching workstation can simultaneously receive the alarm and generate a default train operation plan for the dispatcher to confirm and set. Finally, the station extension automatically decomposes the train number window and updates the train operation information based on the feedback, thereby ensuring train operation safety and dispatching efficiency in the event of abnormal virtual disassembly.
