"Integrated Monitoring Integrated System" will realize the entire light rail dispatch [Full text]

Yesterday, Suzhou Rail Transit Co., Ltd. signed a contract with Nuri Group, which will undertake the integrated monitoring integration, procurement and installation of Suzhou Rail Transit Line 1. It is understood that the comprehensive integrated monitoring and control system delivered after research and development will realize the dispatch of the entire light rail line 1 in an intelligent way.
Fast - automatic and efficient control center
According to Zhang Shenming, a senior engineer at the R&D center, the future integrated monitoring and control system will integrate more than a dozen systems such as fire-fighting, broadcasting, closed-circuit television, ventilation, air conditioning, power supply, and escalators. Light rail vehicles operate in underground tunnels. To ensure passenger safety, comfort, and speed, they need to coordinate with each other. According to the traditional practice, these systems are single, each of which has its own system. The drawback of this approach is that the work efficiency is low, and in the event of an emergency, coordination between systems is susceptible to human emotion.
The comprehensive integrated monitoring and control system for the future use of the light rail line No. 1 will integrate the various systems electronically and be dispatched and controlled by a general control center. All instructions are automatically generated by the computer system based on actual conditions. Each station will also have a branch system. In addition to the intelligent control of each station, these branch systems will also aggregate the data of the station to the control center. The control center will perform unified scheduling according to the passenger flow and operating status of each station. Whether it is necessary to increase the number of train trips and which platform traffic is too large requires coordination and will be completed through an intelligent system.
Comfortable - Smart Center
In the past experience with the subway, it was sometimes felt that the air conditioning in the cabin was too cold or too hot. This phenomenon would be well avoided in the future light rail cars in Suzhou. Integrated monitoring and integration system will analyze the real-time conditions in the compartment. If the cabin is too crowded and the air quality is not good, the intelligent system will increase the ventilation and reduce the temperature of the compartment. Conversely, if the temperature in the cabin is too low, the intelligent system will increase the temperature in time to achieve the purpose of energy conservation.
In order to facilitate the waiting of passengers, the system will display the arrival time of the next few light rail vehicles on the platform in advance so that passengers can reasonably arrange the waiting time. In the waiting area, the smart system also adjusts the ventilation system according to the environment to maximize the comfort of the waiting passengers.
Safety - Emergency Centers for Special Conditions
Underground operation, safety is the primary guarantee. For possible emergencies, intelligent systems can effectively handle the transmission of image data from each subsystem. In an emergency situation, the system will use the broadcasting system to remind passengers to divert traffic; cut off the power system that may trigger a chain reaction, and start the damaged backup power system; increase the exhaust smoke; start the fire protection system; through the video, view The status of the vehicle to determine the best solution. These are all future intelligent systems that need to be done.
