Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of rail transit communication technology, specifically to a method and system for obtaining CTC (Cycling Traffic Control) confirmed information. Background Technology
[0002] The report consists of two parts: the header and the text. It is one of the most important basic information in railway transportation organization and is essential for marshalling yard operations, unloading forecasts, and traffic flow adjustments.
[0003] Currently, the CTC (Computer Interlocking Control System) uses the unified standard of China State Railway Group to obtain confirmation information from the TDMS (Railway Transportation Dispatch and Management System) through a TD interface (network interface) server. Central dispatchers can view this confirmation information on the timetable terminal. However, station duty officers cannot access this information and are unaware of crucial details such as the originating station, marshalling yard, marshalling operations, and freight information of passing trains. This information gap hinders station duty officers from effectively scheduling train transportation operations.
[0004] With the expansion of the railway network and the increase in train frequency, the importance of confirmation information to station staff is growing. Therefore, there is an urgent need to research a method and system for obtaining confirmation information to improve the efficiency of station transportation operations. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for obtaining CTC (Central Train Control) information, enabling station duty officers to monitor information such as train marshalling yard operations, unloading forecasts, and train flow adjustments in real time.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:
[0007] A method for obtaining CTC (Central Traffic Control) confirmation information includes: an interface server obtaining station registration information and confirmation information, and matching the confirmation information with the station registration information before sending it to the corresponding station server; the station server converting the confirmation information and sending it to the station occupancy map backend server; the station occupancy map backend server matching train information with the converted confirmation information and updating the running line information; and the occupancy map receiving the running line information and displaying it on the terminal interface for station duty officers to query.
[0008] Preferably, the interface server obtains station registration information by: the station server periodically sending station registration information to the interface server; the interface server receiving the station registration information and storing it in memory.
[0009] Furthermore, the station registration information includes abbreviated station names, and the method further includes: if the abbreviated station name sent by the station server is duplicated, the interface server skips the station registration information.
[0010] Preferably, the interface server obtains the confirmation information by: the interface server reading the confirmation information from the TDMS system.
[0011] Furthermore, the interface server reads the confirmation information from the TDMS system, including: after receiving the notification from the TDMS system, the interface server reads the confirmation information from the shared database of the TDMS system and saves the confirmation information to the confirmation information database of the CTC system.
[0012] Furthermore, the interface server reads the confirmed information from the TDMS system, which also includes: if the confirmed information read is consistent with the previous cycle, then the confirmed information is lost.
[0013] Preferably, the station registration information includes abbreviated station name codes. The interface server matches the confirmed information with the station registration information and sends it to the corresponding station server. This includes: the interface server matching the reporting station abbreviation code, dismantling station abbreviation code, or transit station abbreviation code of each confirmed information according to the station name abbreviation code, and sending the successfully matched confirmed information to the corresponding station server.
[0014] Furthermore, the confirmation information sent to the station server includes header information and message information. The header information includes version number, entry time, train number, marshalling number, number of cars in the train, train tare weight, first train load, second train load, total train weight, train length change, total number of tarpaulins, number of text entries, marshalling station abbreviation code, dismantling station abbreviation code, sending station abbreviation code, via station abbreviation code, station sign, and departure time. The message information includes sequence, car type and model, direction number, first destination station name, final destination station name, car weight / empty marking, number of tarpaulins, tare weight, load, and length change.
[0015] Preferably, the station server converts the confirmed information and sends it to the station occupancy map backend server, including: the station server converts the marshalling yard abbreviation code, dismantling yard abbreviation code, telegraphing yard abbreviation code, and via yard abbreviation code in the confirmed information into the marshalling yard number, dismantling yard number, telegraphing yard number, and via yard number under the CTC system, and sends them to the station occupancy map backend server.
[0016] Preferably, the station occupancy map backend server matches train information based on the converted confirmation information, including: the station occupancy map backend server matches the train number in the station occupancy map backend server with the train number, station number, and entry time in the confirmation information; if the train number and station number in the confirmation information are consistent with the train number in the station occupancy map backend server, and the entry time and departure time of the train number meet the time interval T, then the matching is successful.
[0017] Furthermore, the station occupancy map backend server matches train information based on the converted confirmation information, and also includes: if the entry time and train departure time do not meet the time interval T, the matching fails and the confirmation information is discarded.
[0018] Preferably, the station occupancy map backend server matches train information with the converted confirmed information and updates the operating line information, including: the station occupancy map backend server stores the confirmed information as part of the train information in the operating line information.
[0019] A system for implementing the above-mentioned CTC (Central Traffic Control) confirmation information acquisition method includes: an interface server for acquiring station registration information and confirmation information, and matching the confirmation information with the station registration information before sending it to the corresponding station server; a station server for converting the confirmation information and sending it to the station occupancy map backend server; a station occupancy map backend server for matching train information based on the converted confirmation information and updating the train line information; and an occupancy map for receiving train line information and displaying it on a terminal interface for station duty officers to query.
[0020] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] In the process of using this invention, the station registration information and confirmation information are first obtained through the interface server, and the confirmation information and station registration information are matched and sent to the corresponding station server. Then, the station server converts the confirmation information and sends it to the station occupancy map backend server. The station occupancy map backend server matches the train information according to the converted confirmation information and updates the running line information. Finally, the occupancy map receives the running line information and displays it on the terminal interface for station duty officers to query and use, so that station duty officers can obtain information such as train marshalling yard operations, unloading forecasts, and train flow adjustments in real time.
[0022] This invention designs a method and system for obtaining CTC (China Central Transmission Control) train confirmation information. Utilizing the existing CTC system, it establishes a data transmission path to enable stations to obtain train confirmation information. The invention designs a new transmission path for confirmation information, ensuring consistency between station and central information. The busy chart display in this invention shows the received train confirmation information. Compared to existing train information, this invention facilitates station staff in scheduling train transportation operations, thereby improving station transportation efficiency. The data and information in this invention originate from real CTC data, effectively improving station transportation operations. Attached Figure Description

[0027] On the one hand, this embodiment provides a method for obtaining CTC (Central Traffic Control) confirmation information, including: an interface server obtains station registration information and confirmation information, and sends the confirmation information and station registration information to the corresponding station server after matching them; the station server converts the confirmation information and sends it to the station occupancy map backend server; the station occupancy map backend server matches train information according to the converted confirmation information and updates the running line information; the occupancy map receives the running line information and displays it on the terminal interface for station duty officers to query and use.
[0028] In the process of using this invention, the station registration information and confirmation information are first obtained through the interface server, and the confirmation information and station registration information are matched and sent to the corresponding station server. Then, the station server converts the confirmation information and sends it to the station occupancy map backend server. The station occupancy map backend server matches the train information according to the converted confirmation information and updates the running line information. Finally, the occupancy map receives the running line information and displays it on the terminal interface for station duty officers to query and use, so that station duty officers can obtain information such as train marshalling yard operations, unloading forecasts, and train flow adjustments in real time.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown below, the steps of the CTC confirmation information acquisition method in this embodiment are described in detail:
[0030] In one preferred embodiment, the interface server in this example obtains station registration information by: the station server periodically sending station registration information to the interface server; and the interface server receiving the station registration information and storing it in memory.
[0031] Specifically, the station registration information in this embodiment includes the station name abbreviation, and the method further includes: if the station name abbreviation sent by the station server is duplicated, the interface server skips the station registration information.
[0032] Step S1: The station server Agent periodically sends station registration information to the central TD interface server, including the station name abbreviation, registration time, etc.
[0033] Step S2: The TD interface server receives the registration information from the station server agent and stores it in memory. If the station name abbreviations sent by the same station server agent are identical, the TD interface server will not store them again. It then waits for the TDMS system to periodically send notifications of read confirmation information.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the interface server in this example obtains the confirmation information by reading the confirmation information from the TDMS system.
[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the interface server reads the confirmation information from the TDMS system, including: after receiving the notification from the TDMS system, the interface server reads the confirmation information from the shared database of the TDMS system and saves the confirmation information to the confirmation information database of the CTC system.
[0036] More specifically, in this embodiment, the interface server reads the confirmed information from the TDMS system, and if the read confirmed information is consistent with the previous cycle, then the confirmed information is lost.
[0037] Step S3: After receiving the notification from the TDMS system, the TD interface server reads the confirmation information from the TDMS system's shared database. If the read confirmation information is consistent with the previous cycle, the confirmation information is lost. If it is inconsistent with the confirmation information of the previous cycle, the confirmation information is saved to the CTC system's confirmation information database.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the station registration information in this embodiment includes the station name abbreviation. The interface server matches the confirmation information and the station registration information and sends them to the corresponding station server. This includes: the interface server matching the sending station abbreviation, dismantling station abbreviation, or transit station abbreviation of each confirmation information according to the station name abbreviation, and sending the successfully matched confirmation information to the corresponding station server.
[0039] Specifically, the confirmation information sent to the station server in this embodiment includes header information and message information. The header information includes version number, entry time, train number, marshalling number, number of cars in the train, train tare weight, first train load, second train load, total train weight, train length change, total number of tarpaulins, number of text entries, marshalling station abbreviation code, dismantling station abbreviation code, sending station abbreviation code, via station abbreviation code, local station sign, and departure time. The message information includes sequence, car type and model, direction number, first destination name, final destination name, car weight / empty mark, number of tarpaulins, tare weight, load, and length change.
[0040] Step S4: The TD interface server matches the station name abbreviation of each confirmed report with the sending station abbreviation, dismantling station abbreviation, or via station abbreviation based on the station name abbreviation registered with the station server Agent. If a match is successful, the confirmed report is sent to the station server. The confirmed report sent to the station server includes header information and message information. The header information includes version number, entry time, train number, marshalling number, number of cars, train tare weight, train load 1, train load 2, total train weight, train length change, total tarpaulin coverage, number of text entries, marshalling station abbreviation, dismantling station abbreviation, sending station abbreviation, via station abbreviation, station sign, departure time, etc. The message information includes sequence, car type and model, direction number, first destination station name, final destination station name, car weight / empty marking, number of tarpaulins, tare weight, load, length change, etc.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the station server in this example converts the confirmed information and sends it to the station occupancy map backend server. This includes: the station server converting the marshalling yard abbreviation code, dismantling yard abbreviation code, reporting yard abbreviation code, and via yard abbreviation code in the confirmed information into the marshalling yard number, dismantling yard number, reporting yard number, and via yard number under the CTC system, and then sending them to the station occupancy map backend server.
[0042] Step S5: After receiving the confirmation information from the central TD interface server, the station server Agent converts the marshalling yard abbreviation code, dismantling yard abbreviation code, telegraphing yard abbreviation code, and via yard abbreviation code in the confirmation information into the marshalling yard number, dismantling yard number, telegraphing yard number, and via yard number under the CTC system, and sends them to the station occupancy map background server SVR_TWG.
[0043] In one preferred embodiment, the station occupancy map backend server in this embodiment matches train information based on the converted confirmation information, including: the station occupancy map backend server matches the train number in the station occupancy map backend server with the train number, station number, and entry time in the confirmation information; if the train number and station number in the confirmation information are consistent with the train number in the station occupancy map backend server, and the entry time and departure time of the train number meet the time interval T, then the matching is successful.
[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the station occupancy map backend server matches train information based on the converted confirmation information. It also includes the following: if the entry time and train departure time do not meet the time interval T, the matching fails and the confirmation information is discarded.
[0045] Step S6: The station occupancy map backend server SVR_TWG receives the confirmation information and matches it with the train number. If the train number in the confirmation does not match the train number in SVR_TWG, the confirmation information is discarded.
[0046] Step S6 is as follows:
[0047] Step S61: The station occupancy map backend server SVR_TWG matches the train number in the server with the train number, station number and entry time in the confirmed information.
[0048] Step S62: If the train number and station number in the confirmed information are consistent with the train information in the server, and the entry time and train departure time meet the time interval T, then the match is successful.
[0049] Step S63: If the entry time and train departure time do not meet the time interval T, the matching fails; discard the confirmation information.
[0050] In one preferred embodiment, the station occupancy map backend server in this embodiment matches train information with the converted confirmed information and updates the operating line information, including: the station occupancy map backend server stores the confirmed information as part of the train information in the operating line information.
[0051] Step S7: If the train is not the terminating train, the station occupancy map backend server SVR_TWG will store the confirmation information as part of the train information in the line information structure. Otherwise, the confirmation information will not be stored in the line information structure.
[0052] Step S8: The station occupancy map backend server SVR_TWG sends the running line information containing the confirmation information to the occupancy map TWG.
[0053] Step S9: If the station occupancy map backend server SVR_TWG receives the update confirmation information from the station server Agent, SVR_TWG updates the confirmation information in the running line information and sends it to the occupancy map TWG.
[0054] Step S10: The TWG (Traffic Management Center) receives the track information and displays it on the terminal interface for station staff to query. Figure 2 As shown, the terminal operation line and confirmed information on the line occupancy map are displayed intuitively, which is used by station duty officers to arrange train transportation operations.
[0055] On the other hand, this embodiment also provides a system for implementing the above-mentioned CTC confirmation information acquisition method, including: an interface server, used to acquire station registration information and confirmation information, and send the confirmation information and station registration information to the corresponding station server after matching them; a station server, used to convert the confirmation information and send it to the station occupancy map backend server; a station occupancy map backend server, used to match train information according to the converted confirmation information and update the running line information; and an occupancy map, used to receive the running line information and display it on the terminal interface for station duty officers to query.
[0056] This invention designs a method and system for obtaining CTC (China Central Transmission Control) train confirmation information. Utilizing the existing CTC system, it establishes a data transmission path to enable stations to obtain train confirmation information. The invention designs a new transmission path for confirmation information, ensuring consistency between station and central information. The busy chart display in this invention shows the received train confirmation information. Compared to existing train information, this invention facilitates station staff in scheduling train transportation operations, thereby improving station transportation efficiency. The data and information in this invention originate from real CTC data, effectively improving station transportation operations.
