April 2013 - October 2013

Funding entity KV Consultores


The aim of the project is to analyze the current situation of the signal-lines of the commuting railway lines of Madrid and Barcelona, and to provide proposals to improve them. The load for these lines is steadily increasing and new increments are expected associated to the installation of new devices ERTMS/GSMR. The main aspects of the project are the following ones:

• Modeling of the signal lines and implementation of them in the application PowerFactory.
• Validation of the model with electrical measurements (not included in this project).
• Conclusions: identification of problems in the network and possible improvements.
