Preliminary Hazard Analysis for Development of ICT-Based Local Control Center

Abstract

ICT-based on-board oriented train control system has been proposed to improve operation efficiency in low-density railway line. It is also needed to develop a new ICT-based local control center which relates to existing centralized traffic control lines. In order to meet the qualitative target of these developing system, RAMS activities are required. In this paper, through preliminary hazard analysis, hazards and their contributing factors are addressed, then countermeasures are established to control the risk to an acceptable level.
