Optimal design of ATO driving parameters for FGC

A. Fernández-Cardador A.P. Cucala A. Fernández Rodríguez

July 2017 - February 2018

Funding entity Siemens Rail Automation S.A.U

Participated by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya


The objective of this project is the design and implementation of the efficient ATO speed commands in FGC railway line from Plaza de Cataluña to Sant Cugat. These ATO speed commands are selected and sent to the train by the traffic regulation system in real-time. The new ATO speed commands must comply with technical, operational and comfort restrictions and will minimise the energy consumption.
