STraffic Urban Railway TCS as adopted Korean CBTC, KTCS-M

Korean Train Control System ST-KMX. ST-KMX, STraffic Urban Railway TCS, was a wireless signaling system in the Ilsan Line project. It successfully worked and verified its reliability and performance. Thanks to this reference, we could lay a basis for unmanned infrastructure and a Korean TCS. ST-KMX is a wireless-based urban railway TCS that meets Korean Railway and RAMS standards. The Korean CBTC is a wireless-based TCS that uses WIFI or LTE-R to send real-time information. We would like to provide you with information about our system's configuration. There is a transponder tag installed on the railway track to send information. A signal control device is installed on a vehicle to estimate details such as train location. Three wireless devices receive and process this information. The first device is a ground signal control installed in machine rooms and stations. The second device is an EIS set up in interlocking stations for line conversion, course setting, and course release. The final device is the ATS, which manages all signal information. The last component is a two-way wireless communication device that connects each control system.

Installation of advanced Train Telecommunication Systems for Gimpo Urban Railway

STRAFFIC has been awarded the project for the Gimpo Urban Railway, which aims to enhance the transportation infrastructure in Gimpo City. This project involves the implementation of advanced railway signaling and communication systems to ensure efficient and safe train operations. Legacy train control and communication system had performance limitations, making them incompatible to support high-tech, high-speed automated with recently developed with VHF (Voice-only) ultra-short wave and voice communication technology. Another consideration in evaluating the need for alternative equipment was high equipment installation costs (8% of construction costs) and supply and maintenance costs.      Utiling LTE technology-Long Term Evolution, 4th generation high-speed data mobile communication standards, allows railway control systems to manage operations to be more responsive to needs of passengers and advanced railway services by integrating a variety of train control and communication systems installed on each route. This integration supports safer, seamless-operation of all rail transportation options-urban commuter genral inter-city, and high-speed system. Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport is leading efforts for the construction of railway communication networks nationwide from 2018 to 2027 to create an integrated system using LTE technology.

The Vertical Platform Screen Door enhancing the safety of passengers in Paris

  Since 1900, Métro de Paris with its extensive network of 16 subway routes has served Parisians and many visitors by providing a quick, efficent way of reaching the destinations that define Paris's culture, economy, and history. Service across the network is provided by a diverse fleet of metro subway cars, with each fleet having a different configuration of doors.  A key concern at Metro de Paris is rider safety while awaiting trains on platforms. Therein lies the challenge: to improve platform safety, traditional platform doors would work only if the car fleet is uniform, and if stopping is precisely aligned with platform door openings.To improve safety and service, Metro de Paris chose STraffic to install Vertical Platform Screen Doors(VSPD) at select stations. Instead of opening horizontally, STraffic developed an innovative solution that opens vertically, like a garage door, to create an open, 8m space for boarding. The solution accommodates differences in subway card door configurations and offers protection for riders, while easily adapting to a variety of station spaces in European railway by virtue of its compact design.
