About

ERTMS in Switzerland

• Achievements

• Network wide(UIC gauge) ETCS L1 LS

• 5x ETCS L2 line segments

• Challenges

• No Business Case on RU side

• No stable base to introduce and deploy “Game Changers” such as ATO and ETCS L3 / moving block

• GSM-R not sufficient capacity and EOL situation

• Network capacity decrease (braking curves)

• Not sufficient performance of on-board solutions

• To long Time2Market & offline maintenance

We need to introduce “Digitalization” in Signalling, in order to bring ERTMS to a sustainable success. smartrail 4.0 has started as a brain pool 3 years ago and is now a sector wide “Signalling Program”. Basically we are answer in the Federal Office of Transport’s questions, shall we proceed with a networkwide ETCS Level 2 rollout or are there better alternatives?

Person

• Rolf Mühlemann, Senior Consultant PROSE, Switzerland

• Since July 2018, mandate on-board Program Manager within smartrail 4.0


Together.

With smartrail 4.0, the Swiss railway sector is harnessing digitalization and the potential of new technologies to maintain the railway's competitiveness in the longer term.

Digital vehicle equipment is increasing, same applies to the number of upgrades required (even without SR40). Today's costs for CCS on-board equipment are several times higher than is appropriate from a technical point of view.

The main causes are: • Complex non-standardized vehicle architecture and interfaces• special hardware for each function with small product series • very high certification efforts and integration risks burdened on the suppliers

Conclusion: Only a change in the CCS On-board architecture, including a lean certification approach, will provide a solid basis for implementing the smartrail 4.0 functions on the vehicle side.


How the cost difference arises (using the example of an analogy)Vision: "Software instead of special hardware".

OCORA Goals

1. To define an Open CCS On-board Reference Architecture

2. To foster and develop the open ETCS/ATP source initiative by utilizing and benefitting from the existing results of the “openETCS” initiative and sharing common understanding on this initiative.

3. Validate the viability and relevance of the OCORA approach.

4. To promote the use of OCORA for the on-board in Europe in order to make it more cost effective, reliable, safe and secure


3 railway-initiated initiatives (EULYNX, RCA, OCORA) help drive the harmonization of requirements for a modular CCS architecture

RCA

Focus: Specs for modular CCS architecture for radio-basedETCS incl. game-changers.

EULYNX

Focus: modular trackside CCS with current functions toreduce TCO.

OCORA

Focus: Specs & modular on-board CCS referencearchitecture to support ETCS rollouts.

• smartrail 4.0 is a Swiss sector program providing the Federal Office of Transport the comprehensive answer, hence a possible way forward with ERTMS in Switzerland

• We conclude that only holistic view including the technologies ETCS L3 / moving block, FRMCS, ATO, as well as wayside and on-board perspective will lead to a well balanced and sustainable signalling future

• Only a cooperation on customer side including the Railway Undertakings (OCORA) and the Infrastructure Managers (RCA) will provide the required momentum and secured market potential to enable the industry to move to a common open reference architecture

• It is a long way to go but we cannot afford to stay with the current situation

Summary – Digitalization in Signalling

Thank you

Introduction

The deployment of ERTMS is today a reality in the EU with 15,000 km of lines to be equipped by 2023. ERTMS is however facing major challenges:

1. Current control command and signalling on-board solutions in Europe are driving significant investment and maintenance costs;

2. Those solutions did not take into account the differences in life cycles between its constituents or parts;

3. The ERTMS specifications written in natural language are error-prone with different possible interpretations from different suppliers;

4. Major innovations around the ETCS core are to be deployed in the next decade to boost the railway sector efficiency (i.e. ATO, fail-safe train localization, next radio communication system, …).

Recognizing that a coherent, modular, upgradeable, interchangeable, reliable and secure system architecture is paramount to overcome these challenges for the overall control command and signalling system of the European railway sector.

The founding members intend to establish the Open* CCS On-board Reference Architecture (referred to as “OCORA”), in coherence and complementarity with the trackside Control, Command and Signalling subsystem.

*The “openess” of OCORA is defined as the principle based upon collaboration and sharing, publicly available standards and models, facilitating cost-effective industrialisation without any barrier and in line with the competition laws.
