2.5.4.2 Concept of CBTC
(1) Concept of CBTC
ATS, ATP & ATO functions for the CBTC could be assigned to ground equipment or onboard
equipment or both.
ATP provides the protection against train collisions, excessive train speeds and other hazardous
conditions (e.g. entering an unsafe track section, opening train doors outside stations). The ATP is
performed by a combination of ground and On-board equipment.
ATP ground equipment receives information from CBI and from the onboard equipment (train identity
and location), determines a train map (location of all the trains in the line), and sends a Limit of Moving
Authority (LMA) to each train.
The onboard equipment determines the train's location and provides it to the Ground equipment,
manages the control mode of the train, uses the LMA received from the Ground equipment and
completes it with its own information and calculations based on the knowledge of the track to control
over speed condition (taking into account others constraints such as permanent or temporary speed
restrictions, etc.), and to trigger an emergency braking in case of danger, and also authorizes the opening
of the train doors safely.
All ATP functions are implemented in accordance with the fail-safe principle. Following the IEC
mounted on the vehicle’s axle standards, all vital functions are performed with respect to SIL-4 safety
constraints.
The ATO provides the automatic driving functions. The ATO commands brakes, traction, and doors
movement with respect of the mission assigned to the train and ATP. The onboard equipment supports
these ATO functions.
The VOBCs will initiate communications with the VCC via radio system and the access points (APs).
The VOBC is in constant communication with the VCC and is primarily responsible for the control of
propulsion, brakes and train doors. The VOBC’s positioning system is based on information from the
transponders laid along the track and on information from tachometers mounted on the vehicle’s axles.
(2) Outline of CBTC
Outline of CBTC is shown in Figure 2.5.2 below.
Figure 2.5.2 – CBTC outline
Source JICA Study Team
In CBTC mode, radio communication is used for train detection. The preceding train detects its own
position, and the onboard equipment transmits the data to the following train by radio communication
through CBTC ground equipment. The following train controls the brake pattern to stop the train at the
LMA (Limit of Moving Authority) point. This is not a fixed block, but a moving block system.

SIG-2-17
(3) Key issues of CBTC
a) Broken rail detection
A broken rail may cause a serious accident, especially when in CBTC mode. This is not an issue in
manual ATP mode as there is often a secondary train detection system which is used, as broken rail
may cause a serious accident, especially when in CBTC mode.
b) Back up when CBTC fails or is unavailable.
CBTC system shall be provided with a hot standby arrangement.
CBTC is a safety critical system. The reliability and availability shall be maintained under normal and
failure modes operation.
CP106 Contractor shall provide Failure Mode Effect Analyses (FMEA) of the proposed Signaling
System Architecture and propose Hot standby to maintain a reliable system available during normal
and degraded mode of operation. A single point failure shall not shutdown the whole system.
c) Strengthening means for 2.4GHz Radio Communication
In case of CBTC, a general-purpose radio frequency 2.4 GHz shall be used. There is a likelihood that
it could be disturbed by other systems and to mitigate against this, the following security measures shall
be adhered namely,
i) Radio transmission enhancement measures
• Measures to improve the radio propagation performance;
• Frequency change;
• Receiving position changing; and
• Time changing (Dual transmission)
ii) Improvement of security
• Encryption: AES; and
• Authentication technology: ISO/IEC9798-2
d) Safety and Reliability
• Vital (Critical) component; SIL4 shall be applied for ATP, CBI
• SIL4(Safety Integrity Level 4); Dangerous failure rate 10-9/h or less.
e) System Change to ETCS mode
The NSRP-S project will roll out ETCS system for their project. There is a proposition to use the same
rolling stock on NSRP-S and MMSP projects for interoperability. Trains from MMSP line will then
proceed onto NSRP-S line via Bicutan station and vice-versa. Bicutan station will act as a interchange,
for both the lines. As part of interoperability, the onboard CBTC equipment shall change control to
ETCS mode for southbound journey on the NSRP line. An interface specification of interoperability
will detail the operational method of changeover. The onboard ETCS equipment shall be manufactured
and fitted by the Railway system contractor of NSRP-S.
(4) ATP system (Ground system, Onboard equipment)
a) CBTC uses radio communication for data transmission between the ground equipment and the
onboard equipment. The preceding train detects the position of itself on the line, and the onboard
equipment transmits the location data to the following train via the ground equipment by radio
communication. The following train controls the brake pattern to stop at the LMA (Limit of
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-18
Moving Authority) point. The stop target point of the brake pattern is the limit of moving
authority (LMA) which is the rear end of the preceding train.
b) The onboard equipment of the train detects its position by measuring the distance from the
reference point using a tachometer based on balise. The position of the train is wirelessly
transmitted to the ATP ground equipment. The ATP ground equipment transmits the LMA of the
preceding train to the following train. The following onboard equipment applies a brake pattern
to stop before the LMA and the train ahead. The brake pattern consists of an emergency brake
pattern and a regular brake pattern. The ATP ground device transmits CBI interlocking
information (route available information, point machine status, etc.) to the in-cab equipment.
c) ATP ground and onboard equipment’s are important for safety and shall be fail-safe. Also, SIL4
shall be applied as ATP is a vital component.
d) Communication method between onboard and the ground equipment shall be via Radio
Frequency (RF).
e) The Contractor shall submit the headway calculation to achieve 4 minutes headway from Quirino
Highway Sta. to Bicutan Sta, for the Engineer’s approval.
f) The Contractor shall submit the Cab signal layout, DMI (Driver Machine Interface) and design
of operation mode switch for the Engineer’s review.
g) The ATP operation method (operation mode, interface etc.) shall be considered and adjusted in
accordance with the Rolling stock contractor.
h) DMI shall display the following information:-
• Train operation mode;
• Speedometer: current speed, service brake pattern, emergency brake pattern;
• Position of preceding train; and
• Onboard signal display, etc.
i) The following operation of the DMI shall be carried out by button operation:-
• Train operation mode for switching operation;
• ATO departure operation; and
• Door opening / closing operation (including PSD), etc.
j) Four car trains shall be used on training track of PRI. The train shall be divided into four cars
with a cab installed at one end of the train. The contractor shall deliver the necessary ATP
equipment after consulting the rolling stock contractor.
2.5.4.3 Data Transmission System
The aim of the Data Transmission System is to provide a bi-directional, reliable, and secured data
exchange between OCC and station signaling equipment and wayside equipment.
The data transmission between Ground Signaling system and onboard equipment shall use 2.4GHz
Radio signal for communication.
Optical fiber cable shall be provided by Communication system.
2.5.4.4 Measures of the Section Gap
In a moving block system, the stop position of the vehicle is not based on the ground signal, and it is
not known where the stopping position is on the track. It is always preferred to stop the train beyond
the section gap. In case one end of the train does end up stalling within the section gap then a large
current shall flow between the current collector pantograph in one vehicle, which could potentially
damage the equipment.
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-19
The following measures shall be considered for mainline, Depot access line and Depot namely,
Signal control shall prevent the vehicle from stopping in the section gap in the below mentioned
scenarios.
a) Normal Control
Train shall not proceed until the preceding train passes through the section gap and has travelled a train
lengths distance beyond the section gap.
b) In case of power failure
In the event of a power failure in the section, the train shall stop approximately 50 m in rear of the
section gap. For this purpose, the power failure information shall be sent as an input from the substation
to the CBI interlocking.
2.5.5 Train Detection system (TD)
1) When in CBTC mode, the onboard detection system of the train is used for train detection when in
CBTC mode. Based on the position of balise on the ground and the distance travelled by the
tachometer the position of the train is detected by the onboard equipment. There is a possibility of
error in reading the distance by the tachometer due to slippage of wheels, hence it is necessary to
use a correction by balise in combination, for detecting the exact position of the train.
2) Besides the above, there are other methods such as correction by Doppler radar or correction by
wireless communication. Since these differ according to the type of CBTC method, the bidders shall
propose the required technology at the time of bidding.
3) SIL 4 must be applied since the train detection system is a vital component of the ATP.
4) Dead locking principle over the turnout using secondary train detection shall be applied in the Depot
and Mainline to prevent points moving under the train, leading to a derailment.
5) Train detection system on mainline without turnout.
• CBTC communication system is applied to detect the absence of a train
• Secondary train detection system shall be applied as a backup for communication loss.
6) Secondary train detection system shall be able to withstand the overhead voltage and current ratings
and perform satisfactorily without any interference.
7) The train detection system shall comply with EN 50121 / IEC 62236 standards to ensure safety,
reliability and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the railway components and system.
8) Secondary train detection system shall be used to detect broken rail for all rails except the
maintenance line.
9) Lightning arresters, varistors etc. shall be provided to protect secondary train detection system
against lightening surge.
10) Combined Bonding Plan for Mainline and Depot clearly identifying the Signaling Bonding
arrangements (i.e. yellow bonds) and Traction Return power bonding arrangement (i.e. Red bonds)
shall be provided; in addition to the Signaling Bonding Plan as per the current EN or JIS standards.
2.5.6 Automatic Train Operation (ATO) system
Outline of ATO
ATO for this project shall carry out two main functions namely PSD control and train control. The PSD
control device shall ensure locking between the ground and onboard equipment’s and prevent any
misuse by the operating staff or platform passengers. ATO shall automatically control the train
departure from the platform, running between stations and stopping at fixed position in the platform. It
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-20
shall also provide pin-point accuracy for stopping position and a comfortable journey for passengers at
all times.
1) Function of ATO
a) PSD control
ATO shall operate the PSD by electromagnetic induction between onboard antenna and on-ground
antenna installed between rails, which enables control of information and status of information send
and received. Contractor shall consider operation sequence for normal, abnormal and misuse and are
subject to the Engineer’s review. The basic elements to be observed for PSD control are as follows:
i) Fixed stop-point function and electromagnetic coupling of ground transponder/onboard
transponder
The fixed point stop function by ATO is performed by TASC (Train Automatic Stopping Control).
According to the stop point position, ground transponders P0 (stop point), P1 (2 m before the point), P2
(20 m before the point) and P3 (about 600 m before the point) shall be installed. The brake pattern shall
be applied according to the ground transponder so that it can be accurately stopped within the fixed
point stop range (within ± 350 mm).
Frequency of electromagnetic wave sent/received between onboard antenna and on-ground antenna,
shall consider the influence of EMI from train and other onboard devices installed and vice-versa.
Interface between onboard and on-ground equipment shall consider factors such as installation position,
EMF issues, sway at curves etc. When parts are replaced, the EMF shall not influence any operational
changes even if there are individual differences in the electrical characteristics of electrical circuits of
PSD control units. Level of electromagnetic wave and scope of transmitting electromagnetic wave shall
be determined so that frequent adjustment of position of onboard antenna and on-ground antenna is not
needed.
ii) Telegram for PSD control
Format of telegram including necessary information for PSD operation shall be defined between
onboard and on-ground equipment and shall not influence any other train protection systems. Both
onboard device and ground device shall exchange and validate received data and only use verified
information.
iii) Interlocks for PSD control
PSD operation shall not endanger passengers. The basic requirements to be fulfilled by the interlocking
for PSD operation are as follows:
a) PSD control shall be operational when the train is at a complete stop position at the stop marker
board on the platform.
b) When a train is correctly positioned along the platform, PSD system shall receive door
command signal, which originates from the train via the Signaling system, to either open or
close the sliding screen doors.
c) Train doors and PSD shall not open when commuters intend to open wrong side doors which
do not correspond with the platform side. In the event of misuse, the station staff shall be
alarmed by sounding the alarm.
d) Train door and PSD shall open/close in a combination and will not operate independently.
e) Regardless of the mode of operation, train will only start if all train doors and all PSD are
closed normally. ATO shall indicate that all PSDs are closed normally, through TMS monitor.
f) Train Doors shall close with a delayed time. PSD doors shall start closing and when they reach
half way point then the train doors shall commence closing.
g) In-Cab override function shall close train doors in the event one or more PSD Doors fail to
fully close, before departing.
h) Train door and PSD shall open/close in a combination and will not operate independently.
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-21
i) Onboard ATO shall alarm through DMI(TCMS) monitor when PSD open/close is not working
properly or passenger is stranded between train doors and PSD. Also, on-ground device shall
indicate which door is not working properly so that station staff are able to detect immediately.
Alarm in cabs and indicators on PSD shall diminish automatically once the error is rectified.
j) Regardless of the mode of operation, train shall start only if all train doors and all PSDs are
closed normally. ATO shall indicate that all PSDs are closed normally, through TMS monitor.
k) ATO shall automatically be able to distinguish between stations with and without PSD. Once
station without PSD have been detected by the ATO, the interlocking function for the PSD
operation shall be disabled. The interlocking function will be enabled again when ATO detects
stations with PSD in the route.
l) PSD control unit shall be a redundant system, more than duplex system. In addition, PSD
control shall function properly even if the system switches over to backup system during
failure.
m) Interface between onboard and on-ground devices shall not be interfered, and function
properly when mis-operations occur.
n) Switches to release the PSD through interlocking shall be installed in the drivers Cab. Switches
for door operation and acceleration command shall be installed separately.
b) Interface with other onboard devices
Onboard ATO shall interface with other onboard devices to receive necessary information for PSD
control using internal cables. ATO shall interface with DMI (TCMS) to transmit PSD control
information and receive data failure records from DMI.
c) Interface with other ground devices
The PSD ground equipment shall interface with the PSD actuator device and transmit the open/close
command to the actuator when all necessary conditions are fulfilled. In addition, the PSD ground
equipment shall be able to recognize the status of the PSD through the interface with the actuator. The
ground equipment shall be equipped with recording function and capable of storing operation
commands and retrieving data at the time of failure for a minimum of 8 days or more.
d) ATO initiation
ATO operation shall be initiated when the cab driver pressed the button in the cab to depart. The train
shall run in automatic mode based on the information received from on-ground antennas, until it has
been instructed to stop at a certain position. ATO shall provide the precise stopping position and running
time. In addition, it will ensure an improved journey comfort and energy efficiency by coating
operation. The train shall be controlled at all times to follow the target speed within ±2km/h at any
gradient and compatible with CBTC brake pattern. There shall be two driving mode namely,
• Normal Mode (running according to normal train performance curve) and
• Recovery Mode (running to recover the running time)
Recovery mode shall be carried out by the command from the ATS to the onboard ATO equipment via
CBTC when a train is running 30 seconds behind the timetable. Switch over from normal mode to
recovery mode shall be performed at station stops. The contractor shall liaise with CP107 contractor
and propose speed control patterns of recovery mode and switching logic of speed pattern, if necessary.
In addition, the contractor shall propose other modes to attain an improvement in journey comfort and/or
energy efficiency. Furthermore, stopping accuracy shall be more than 99.8% as it has an effect on
operational reliability.
e) ATO driving mode
The driving mode in ATO shall be normal mode (running according to normal running profile) and
recovery mode (running to recover operation time). There could be multiple modes for recovery. It is
acceptable to include additional modes for improving journey comfort and energy saving.
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-22
When the train is delayed more than 30 seconds from the scheduled timetable, ATS shall issue a
command to switch to the recovery mode to the onboard ATO equipment through CBTC when the train
stops. Switching modes related to driving (normal mode, recovery mode, etc.) shall be performed when
the train stops.
i) Deceleration of train
ATO shall have the train automatic stop control system to mitigate the change in the breaking
characteristics (deceleration) caused by rainwater, lubrication and maintenance of onboard device. The
change in deceleration for each brake notch and each speed range shall be considered. In addition, this
system shall have the logic to detect the temporary change in deceleration caused by disturbance and
perform changes to the stopping pattern and break notch command for the train automatic stop control.
The control shall be back to the default setting immediately when the normal deceleration is recovered.
ii) Automatically forward inching operation
Stations having rising gradient shall normally come across trains stopping short of the platform as the
breaking is switched off. In this scenario, trains shall be able to reach the fixed stopping point
automatically by inching forward using ATO rather then getting the cab driver to inch forward
manually.
iii) Forward inching operation
When train stops short of the stopping position, the cab driver shall be capable to inch forward manually
using the starting button.
iv) Approaching a preceding train
ATO shall be able to run the train at constant speed with less braking when a preceding train has been
detected on the approach from the information received from the CBTC system.
v) Control for correcting distance during slip
CBTC shall control the brake notch command when speed sensor mounted axles are detected slipping.
Distance left to fixed stop position at next station shall be corrected by calculating the running distance
from the information available from speed sensors that are not affected by wheel slip.
vi) Running schedule
ATO shall contain the functionality to make running schedules which adopt coaster operation as much
as possible after considering the distance left to fixed position of next station and running time left to
fixed position at next station.
vii) Deceleration monitoring
Onboard devices shall measure the deceleration of the vehicle regularly to detect, if the deceleration
has fallen below an arbitrary threshold value.
Onboard devices shall interface with DMI (TCMS) to display alarm on the DMI (TCMS) monitor in
case deceleration is detected lower than threshold value.
viii) Mode for rain falling
When onboard devices receive a signal of wiper operated by the crew through the interface, then the
onboard device shall apply control to minimize the braking pattern to suppress slip/slide.
2) Transmission of Train information
METRO MANILA SUBWAY PROJECT PHASE 1
Package: CP106: E&M Systems and Track Works
Part – Employer’s Requirements
Section IV
SIG-2-23
The onboard device shall convert train information such as the train type, train number, destination etc.
set by TMS into telegrams and transmit to ground antennas through onboard antennas. Information
transmitted to the ground antennas shall be compared and validated with the information stored in the
passenger information device and likewise. This information shall not interfere with telegrams for PSD
control.
3) Miscellaneous functions
a) Regarding the operation method of ATO, it is necessary to adopt the acceleration/deceleration
characteristics according to the operational curve based on manual operation in principle. In case
changes are to be made for journey comforts, then it needs to be confirmed with the Rolling stock
contractor and checked via simulation to ensure the performance of the propulsion system has no
adverse effects.
b) The ATO operation method and interfaces shall be discussed and agreed with the CP107
contractor.
4) ATP mode operation in case of ATO failure
When Onboard ATO fails, trains shall be operated manually by the driver under ATP protection. As
the fixed point stop function is an ATO function (TASC), it is no longer available, and the cab driver
shall drive the train under manual operation mode up to the fixed stop position. Only after the driver
stops at the stop point, the door of the vehicle and the PSD shall be operated.
In the event ATO ground equipment fails, fixed point stop function shall still be achieved as long as the
ground transponder does not break down, Fixed point stop detection cannot be performed when the
power of ground transponder fails. In this case, the manual door operation is performed after the driver
manually stops at the predetermined position.
2.5.7 Computer Based Interlocking System (CBI)
1) CBI is a computer-based interlocking system that controls the area with a set of signaling apparatus
that prevents setting of conflicting movements and only allows trains to receive authority to proceed,
when routes have been set, locked and detected in a safe combination. Also, the CBI shall hold the
route until the train passes through the set route and is fail-safe. SIL4 shall be applied for CBI.
2) CBIs shall be distributed type CBI or centralized CBI. Distributed CBI shall be the preferred option,
but bidders shall propose an appropriate CBI type system.
