Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of train virtual multi-connection operation optimization control, and in particular to a train virtual multi-connection operation control method and system based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator. Background Art

[0002] The rapid development of high-speed rail has boosted productivity. Its advantages, including high capacity, speed, comfort, low carbon emissions, energy efficiency, and punctuality, have led to a growing public demand for high-speed rail travel. Despite the continuous increase in high-speed rail mileage, it still falls short of meeting public demand during peak travel periods. To address the current unmet demand for high-speed rail, research on high-speed rail operation at higher speeds and frequencies has become a key focus, aiming to further improve the efficiency of existing lines.

[0003] The train control system ensures that trains maintain safe intervals. Currently, China's train control system is divided into four levels: CTCS-0 to CTCS-3. CTCS-3 is applicable to lines with the highest speeds and the highest frequency of train departures. The CTCS-3 train control system uses fixed block systems to control train intervals. To prevent collisions, trains occupy a longer track section with a fixed block section length, and other trains are strictly prohibited from entering this section. Under this fixed block system, to ensure operational safety, train tracking intervals are large, resulting in low track resource utilization, which is not conducive to high-speed and high-frequency operations. Virtual train reconnection technology uses a relative braking distance-based system to control trains to operate in formation. This effectively reduces the tracking intervals between trains, enabling efficient high-speed train operations and flexible transportation capabilities with dynamic capacity allocation.

[0004] Considerable research has been conducted both domestically and internationally on train headway control in virtual reconnection technology. In addition to traditional, low-cost control methods such as PID, many experts and scholars have also applied modern intelligent control algorithms, such as model predictive control, sliding film control, and control methods based on deep learning and reinforcement learning, to train headway control in virtual reconnection operation. The linear quadratic regulator (LQR), as an optimization control method based on state feedback, can effectively optimize control efficiency. Compared to methods such as model predictive control, LQRs also have the advantages of low computational complexity and a simpler model. However, typical LQR models do not address interference from the controlled object. Trains operating in virtual reconnection mode also face complex environments with certain interference factors. Therefore, research on virtual reconnection train control methods based on interference-compensating linear quadratic regulators has cutting-edge and practical research value. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a train virtual reconnection operation control method and system based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator to solve at least one technical problem existing in the above background technology.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a train virtual reconnection operation control method based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator, comprising:

[0008] Analyze the basic resistance, slope, and curve additional resistance of the train during operation, and establish a longitudinal train dynamics model using the unit mass force analysis model;

[0009] Taking into account factors such as train positioning and speed measurement errors and communication delays, a front-end and back-end model of the train operation safety envelope is established. On this basis, a dynamic safety interval is established under the virtual reconnection operation mode, and the dynamic target interval for controlling train operation is further obtained.

[0010] The position and speed deviations between adjacent trains in a train formation are set as controller system variables. The established longitudinal train dynamics model is linearized using the Taylor expansion method with first-order terms. This results in a controller system equation with disturbance terms. To ensure that the system follows the control target, the controller cost function is set to minimize the integral of the infinite-time quadratic deviation.

[0011] In order to ensure the asymptotic stability of the system, closed-loop feedback and disturbance compensation are adopted, and the control quantity is expressed in the form of state feedback and disturbance compensation. The optimized control quantity is further solved, and the auxiliary constant matrix is ​​introduced to transform the optimization problem into a problem of solving the algebraic Riccati equation. The auxiliary constant matrix is ​​obtained by numerical calculation, and the state feedback coefficient matrix of the system is obtained. Finally, the optimized control quantity is solved.

[0012] During each control cycle of the virtual reconnection operation of the train, the tracking train obtains information such as the position and speed of the leading train through wireless communication, and uses this as the state deviation input. By executing the above-mentioned optimization solution process to obtain the optimized control quantity, the virtual reconnection operation of the train can be safely tracked.

[0013] Furthermore, a longitudinal train dynamics model is established that takes into account the basic resistance, slope, and additional resistance of the train during operation. Specifically, it includes:

[0014] During the running process, the train is mainly affected by the traction / braking force, basic resistance and additional resistance of the train in the longitudinal direction of the track. In order to eliminate the influence of different train masses, the force motion analysis of the unit mass of the train is carried out, and the number is obtained. The train dynamics model is shown in formula (1):

[0015] (1)

[0016] The basic resistance of the operation and Satisfying equations (2) and (3), It indicates the unit quality control quantity of the train's position and speed, that is, the train's running status.

[0017] (2)

[0018] (3)

[0019] Furthermore, a safety dynamic interval model for virtual train reconnection operation based on safety envelope is adopted, specifically:

[0020] Taking into account objective conditions such as errors in speed measurement and positioning during actual train operation and time delays in inter-train communication, a safety envelope for train position uncertainty during operation is established, including the safety front-end and safety back-end:

[0021] (4)

[0022] (5)

[0023] To meet the high-speed and high-density operation requirements of virtual multiplexing, the interval between trains should be as small as possible and also meet the safety requirements of operation. The dynamic target interval between trains should be set as follows:

[0024] (6)

[0025] The comprehensive position deviation between adjacent trains is obtained as follows:

[0026] (7)

[0027] Furthermore, after linearization, the controller system equation with the external disturbance term is obtained, and the controller cost function is set to minimize the quadratic deviation, specifically:

[0028] train The controller system state variables are:

[0029] (8)

[0030] After linearizing the train dynamics model, the state equation of the system is obtained:

[0031] (9)

[0032] The controller is transformed into solving the following optimization model:

[0033] (10)

[0034] Furthermore, the auxiliary matrix is ​​obtained by solving the algebraic Riccati equation and then brought into the feedback control model to obtain the optimized control quantity, which is:

[0035] Assume that the state feedback control model including disturbance compensation is:

[0036] (11)

[0037] In order to solve the optimization model of formula (10), the auxiliary matrix is ​​introduced , let the auxiliary matrix and state feedback coefficient matrix satisfy the following formula:

[0038] (12)

[0039] (13)

[0040] The auxiliary matrix is ​​obtained by numerically solving the algebraic Riccati equation :

[0041] (14)

[0042] The solution of this equation is:

[0043] (15)

[0044] This is used as the output of the controller to control the safe operation of the virtual multiplexed train.

[0045] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a train virtual reconnection operation control system based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator, comprising:

[0046] The first building module is used to analyze the basic resistance and slope and curve additional resistance of the train operation, and establish a longitudinal train dynamics model using the unit mass force analysis mode;

[0047] The second establishment module is used to consider the train positioning and speed measurement errors and communication delays, establish the front-end and back-end models of the train operation safety envelope, establish the dynamic safety interval under the virtual reconnection operation mode, and obtain the dynamic target interval for controlling the train operation;

[0048] The linearization module is used to set the position and speed deviations between two adjacent trains in the train formation as controller system variables, linearize the established longitudinal train dynamics model, and obtain the controller system equation with interference terms. The controller cost function is set to minimize the integral of the infinite time domain quadratic deviation;

[0049] The solution module is used to express the control quantity in the form of state feedback and interference compensation using closed-loop feedback and interference compensation, solve the optimized control quantity, introduce the auxiliary constant matrix to transform the optimization problem into a problem of solving the algebraic Riccati equation, solve the auxiliary constant matrix through numerical calculation, obtain the state feedback coefficient matrix of the system, and finally solve the optimized control quantity.

[0050] In a third aspect, the present invention provides a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, which is used to store computer instructions.

[0067] Example 1

[0068] In this embodiment 1, a train virtual reconnection operation control system based on an interference-compensated linear quadratic regulator is first provided, comprising: a first establishment module for analyzing the basic resistance, slope, and curve additional resistance of the train operation, and establishing a longitudinal train dynamics model using a unit mass force analysis model. A second establishment module is used to consider train positioning and speed measurement errors and communication delays, establish front-end and back-end models of the safety envelope of the train operation, establish a dynamic safety interval under the virtual reconnection operation mode, and obtain a dynamic target interval for controlling the train operation. A linearization module is used to set the position and speed deviations between two adjacent trains in the train formation as controller system variables, linearize the established longitudinal train dynamics model, and obtain a controller system equation with interference terms, and set the controller cost function to minimize the integral of the infinite time domain quadratic deviation.

[0069] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned system is used to implement a train virtual reconnection operation control method based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator, including:

[0070] Analyze the basic resistance, slope, and curve additional resistance of the train during operation, and establish a longitudinal train dynamics model using the unit mass force analysis model;

[0071] Taking into account factors such as train positioning and speed measurement errors and communication delays, a front-end and back-end model of the train operation safety envelope is established. On this basis, a dynamic safety interval is established under the virtual reconnection operation mode, and the dynamic target interval for controlling train operation is further obtained.

[0072] The position and speed deviations between adjacent trains in a train formation are set as controller system variables. The established longitudinal train dynamics model is linearized using the Taylor expansion method with first-order terms. This results in a controller system equation with disturbance terms. To ensure that the system follows the control target, the controller cost function is set to minimize the integral of the infinite-time quadratic deviation.

[0073] In order to ensure the asymptotic stability of the system, closed-loop feedback and disturbance compensation are adopted, and the control quantity is expressed in the form of state feedback and disturbance compensation. The optimized control quantity is further solved, and the auxiliary constant matrix is ​​introduced to transform the optimization problem into a problem of solving the algebraic Riccati equation. The auxiliary constant matrix is ​​obtained by numerical calculation, and the state feedback coefficient matrix of the system is obtained. Finally, the optimized control quantity is solved.

[0074] During each control cycle of the virtual reconnection operation of the train, the tracking train obtains information such as the position and speed of the leading train through wireless communication, and uses this as the state deviation input. By executing the above-mentioned optimization solution process to obtain the optimized control quantity, the virtual reconnection operation of the train can be safely tracked.

[0075] A longitudinal train dynamics model is established that takes into account the basic resistance, slope, and additional resistance experienced by the train during operation. Specifically, the model includes:

[0076] During the running process, the train is mainly affected by the traction / braking force, basic resistance and additional resistance of the train in the longitudinal direction of the track. In order to eliminate the influence of different train masses, the force motion analysis of the unit mass of the train is carried out, and the number is obtained. The train dynamics model is shown in formula (1):

[0077] (1)

[0078] The basic resistance of the operation and Satisfying equations (2) and (3), It indicates the unit quality control quantity of the train's position and speed, that is, the train's running status.

[0079] (2)

[0080] (3)

[0081] A safe dynamic interval model for virtual train reconnection operation based on safety envelope is adopted, specifically:

[0082] Taking into account objective conditions such as errors in speed measurement and positioning during actual train operation and time delays in inter-train communication, a safety envelope for train position uncertainty during operation is established, including the safety front-end and safety back-end:

[0083] (4)

[0084] (5)

[0085] To meet the high-speed and high-density operation requirements of virtual multiplexing, the interval between trains should be as small as possible and also meet the safety requirements of operation. The dynamic target interval between trains should be set as follows:

[0086] (6)

[0087] The comprehensive position deviation between adjacent trains is obtained as follows:

[0088] (7)

[0089] After linearization, the controller system equation with the external disturbance term is obtained, and the controller cost function is set to minimize the quadratic deviation, specifically:

[0090] train The controller system state variables are:

[0091] (8)

[0092] After linearizing the train dynamics model, the state equation of the system is obtained:

[0093] (9)

[0094] The controller is transformed into solving the following optimization model:

[0095] (10)

[0096] The auxiliary matrix is ​​obtained by solving the algebraic Riccati equation and then brought into the feedback control model to obtain the optimized control quantity, which is:

[0097] Assume that the state feedback control model including disturbance compensation is:

[0098] (11)

[0099] In order to solve the optimization model of formula (10), the auxiliary matrix is ​​introduced , let the auxiliary matrix and state feedback coefficient matrix satisfy the following formula:

[0100] (12)

[0101] (13)

[0102] The auxiliary matrix is ​​obtained by numerically solving the algebraic Riccati equation :

[0103] (14)

[0104] The solution of this equation is:

[0105] (15)

[0106] This is used as the output of the controller to control the safe operation of the virtual multiplexed train.

[0107] Example 2

[0108] In this embodiment 2, a train virtual reconnection operation control method based on an interference compensation linear quadratic regulator is provided to achieve virtual reconnection safety interval operation of high-speed trains.

[0109] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0110] A high-speed train virtual reconnection optimization operation control method based on a linear quadratic regulator considering disturbance compensation includes:

[0111] Establish a single-point longitudinal dynamics model of train operation and a virtual reconnection operation safety interval model;

[0112] Considering that the train is subjected to motor traction, braking force, basic running resistance, slope and curve additional resistance during operation, the train number is , establish the single-particle dynamic model of the train:

[0113]

[0114] The train running status is the control force (acceleration) on the train position, speed, and unit mass of the train, It is the basic resistance per unit mass of the train operation. The additional resistance per unit mass of the train is satisfied by the following equation:

[0115]

[0116] Due to factors such as the accuracy of the train's speed sensors and communication delays, the train's current position, speed, acceleration, and other state information are uncertain. To ensure the safety of train operation, a train operation safety envelope model is constructed. This model is divided into the front-end and back-end of the train safety operation envelope:

[0117]

[0118] The safety envelope of train operation is the safety boundary of train operation. Based on this, a virtual reconnection safety operation interval model is established based on the virtual relative braking distance. Considering that the preceding train may brake in an emergency at any time, that is, the two adjacent trains (forward train) and When (tracking trains) run in a platoon model, the interval between the two trains should meet the following requirements:

[0119]

[0120] The safety interval is the minimum interval between two cars. To ensure the smooth operation of the virtual train reconnection, the target interval between the two cars is set as:

[0121]

[0122] Based on the analysis of train dynamics and the safety interval of high-speed train virtual reconnection, the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method is used to design the train operation controller model. The process is as follows:

[0123] For a certain train , assume that the system state variables of the train operation controller are:

[0124]

[0125] in Dynamic spacing meets:

[0126]

[0127] The train dynamics model is linearized to obtain the controller system equation with disturbance terms:

[0128]

[0129] The control target of the controller is , define the cost function of the system as:

[0130]

[0131] The optimal action control quantity is obtained by solving the following optimal solution: , control the trains to follow the target interval Follow the speed of the preceding train:

[0132]

[0133] Introducing auxiliary constant matrix This optimization model transforms the above optimization model into The algebraic equation is shown below, and the numerical calculation method is used to solve the algebraic equation.

[0134]

[0135] The optimization model can be obtained by solving the ARE equation using numerical calculation method to obtain the optimal action control quantity. , the actual control quantity It is transmitted as a control instruction to the train operation actuator to achieve the control purpose of high-speed train virtual reconnection safe interval operation.

[0136] Example 3

[0137] The virtual re-coupling operation mode of high-speed trains is characterized by high speed and high frequency departure intervals. It uses advanced sensing and communication technologies as the basis for perception interaction support to realize the virtual formation operation of trains, improve the utilization rate of track resources, and thus improve transportation efficiency. In this embodiment, a virtual re-coupling operation control method of trains based on interference compensation linear quadratic regulator is provided. The method mainly includes: constructing a longitudinal dynamic model that takes into account the basic resistance and additional resistance of train operation, analyzing the safety envelope model of train operation, and on this basis establishing a dynamic safety interval model of the train according to the train safety interval control requirements, designing a train operation controller based on LQR, linearizing the system equations of the train operation controller, defining the cost function of the train operation state, and using the ARE equation to solve the cost function to minimize the optimal control quantity, and using this as a control instruction to transfer to the actuator to control the train operation, thereby realizing train safety interval control. Figure 1 shown.

[0138] The method specifically includes the following implementation steps:

[0139] Step 1: Consider the longitudinal dynamic model of the train's basic resistance and additional resistance.

[0140] In high-speed railway operation scenarios, in order to ensure smoother and faster train operation, the track is generally built relatively straight. At the same time, the train deformation is small during operation, so the entire train can be regarded as a single mass point. During the operation, the train is mainly affected by the traction / braking force actively output by the train, basic resistance and additional resistance in the longitudinal direction of the track. Based on the above analysis, the longitudinal dynamic model of the single-mass train is established according to the basic kinematic laws as shown in Equation (16):

[0141] (16)

[0142] in Indicates the train number, used to distinguish trains. are the position and speed of the train respectively, is the actual control quantity of the train unit mass, are the basic resistance and additional resistance of the train operation, respectively. The basic resistance of the train operation is composed of the track and air resistance, while the additional resistance is determined by the track parameters. The train is also subject to additional resistance caused by the track slope and curve radius during operation. The resistance per unit mass during train operation is expressed by formula (17):

[0143] (17)

[0144] In the formula 、 、 is the basic resistance parameter of the train running unit mass, is the gravitational constant, and are the slope and curve radius parameters of the track where the train is currently located, is the additional resistance parameter of the curve on the unit mass of the train operation. In order to eliminate the factor of train mass, the parameters in formula (17) are all expressed in the form of unit mass.

[0145] Step 2: Safe dynamic interval model of train virtual reconnection operation based on safety envelope.

[0146] In order to control the safe operation of trains in virtual reconnection mode, it is necessary to analyze the dynamic safety interval of trains in the formation. Since the analysis of the safety interval is based on the perception of the train's current state, the positioning and speed measurement of the train during actual operation are not accurate, and there are measurement errors. At the same time, the train-related speed measurement and positioning equipment also has measurement delay problems due to operating frequency factors, and there is also a certain delay in information communication between trains. In order to ensure the safety of train operation, it is necessary to establish a safety envelope model for train operation that takes into account various errors before analyzing the dynamic safety interval, as shown in formula (18):

[0147] (18)

[0148] The train operation safety envelope is composed of the envelope front end and envelope backend constitute, 、 are the positioning error and speed measurement error of the train respectively, For trains The length of the vehicle body, 、 They are respectively the operating frequency of the train's speed measuring equipment and the information communication delay between trains.

[0149] Further analysis of the train braking method under the virtual reconnection mode shows that in order to achieve the tracking goal of small intervals, the train adopts a relative braking strategy, that is, the tracking train assumes that the speed of the leading train will not suddenly change to 0, and the leading train will brake to a stop at any time using emergency braking, instead of the traditional strategy based on the leading train occupying a certain block section at a speed of 0 at any time, which causes waste of track resources.

[0150] On the basis of the train operation safety envelope and the relative braking method, in order to ensure the safety of the virtual multiplex train, the front end of the safety envelope of the tracking train should maintain a sufficient safety distance from the rear end of the safety envelope of the leading train, so that when the leading train brakes suddenly until it stops, the tracking train also brakes suddenly without causing a train collision. With the moving train The envelope should meet the following dynamic interval requirements to ensure driving safety:

[0151] (19)

[0152] in This is the acceleration standard for high-speed trains in emergency braking situations. This dynamic safety interval takes into account the good braking performance of both the tracking train and the leading train. To leave a certain amount of safety redundancy, the target interval between the tracking train and the leading train is actually controlled as follows:

[0153] (20)

[0154] in is the acceleration standard for high-speed trains under common braking conditions. Under this target interval, in a dynamically formed train formation, a tracking train The front end of the safety envelope and its preceding train The back end of the safety envelope is maintained Common braking distance and The distance of the emergency braking distance, such as Figure 2 shown.

[0155] Step 3: Establish a train operation controller model based on a linear quadratic regulator.

[0156] For ease of analysis, the train's speed deviation and position deviation are set as the controller's system state variables:

[0157] (twenty one)

[0158] Comprehensive position deviation Combining formula (20) and formula (18), we can get:

[0159] (twenty two)

[0160] Since the longitudinal train dynamics model represented by Equation (16) has nonlinear characteristics, the first-order Taylor expansion method is used to perform approximate linearization operations:

[0161] (twenty three)

[0162] It's speed The equilibrium state of the controller is obtained as follows:

[0163] (twenty four)

[0164] where the matrix 、 and Satisfies the following equation:

[0165] (25)
