ETCSsignalointi
ETCS (European Train Control System) signalointi refers to the signaling system used in European railway networks to ensure safe and efficient train operations. It is a key component of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS), which aims to standardize train control and command systems across Europe. ETCS signalointi uses radio communication to transmit movement authorities and other vital information to trains, allowing them to operate autonomously while maintaining a safe distance from each other and from potential hazards.
The system operates in three levels, each with increasing levels of automation and functionality. Level 1 requires
One of the main advantages of ETCS signalointi is its ability to improve railway capacity and efficiency.
However, the implementation of ETCS signalointi has also faced challenges, including high costs, technical difficulties, and
