Operating modes and level of automation

Main advantages of Driverless Unattended Metro vs Conventional

Lower O&M expenditure due to a significant decreasing of the staff, as drivers and on

board personnel are not required

There are additional savings in operating costs, since the system is operated in compliance

to an optimum fully automated specification reduction of energy consumption, components

wearing, spare parts, etc…

Trains can be shorter (no cabs) and run more frequently without increase expenditure for

staff

The metro Operators are able to often and easily vary the service frequency to meet

sudden and unexpected transport demands, without increasing the staff costs

High level of performance, availability and reliability. Headway down to 75s. The

attractiveness of public transport is increased

High quality of service with high frequencies, even when the tickets incomes don’t justify

the operation, without increasing the staff costs

Driverless metros are safer than conventional (most rail accidents are caused by human

errors)

Large benefits in terms of safety and comfort thanks to the Platform Screen Doors

Train turnover time at terminals is extremely short as trains go into the holding track and

returns immediately reducing the fleet size needed for operation and consequent savings

in terms of investment and maintenance costs

Train wake-up referring to the operation schedule (the wake up time is chosen

depending from the environmental conditions considering a period of time for warming up

the trains)

Train move in the line and passenger service start

Train stops management (number of stops, duration, opening/closing doors, etc…)

based on operation schedule

Operation auto-adjustment to the schedule in case of delays (extended stops due to

external events, small failures, etc…)

Passenger information according to operation schedule

Hazard management: fire, snow, ice, primary power supply black-out, request from

passenger for train stop or door opening the system recognize the event and adapt

itself, referring on predefined scenarios, converging to the best configuration for the whole

circulation

Trains move out from the line at the end of the service

Automatic train washing (external)

Automatic train parking in the stabling area

Main Unattented Functions:

Management of the entire Mission

Failure management from the Control Room (trains/platform doors releasing, etc…)

Automatic rescue through coupling train recovery

In case of failure, the train could continue to be operated in a degraded mode by

decreasing its performance profile (i.e. the system notify that a bogie is not braking properly:

the primary braking system of that bogie will be disabled, while the emergency one will be

kept in service, then the operation profile is adjusted referring to the current train breaking

capability) safety guaranteed

Route reconfiguration in case of a failure that could cause the temporary unavailability of

a certain section of the line

In general, the failure management objectives are:

Keep the train in service (assuring safety condition) for the whole mission, also by

operating in a degraded mode

In case of a major failure that compromise the train operation in safety condition,

take the train to the next station

Main Unattented Functions:

Failure Management

Driverless Unattented Metro main features

The Driverless Unattended Metro assures high performances, from technical to transportation point of view. It

allows a flexible Operation around the clock 7 days a week, ensuring a large range of transport capacity

according with different headway and train length.

The AnsaldoSTS driverless unattended metro solutions around the world (Copenhagen M1/M2 operated by

AnsaldoSTS since 2002, Milan line 5, Brescia, Rome line C, Thessaloniki, Taipei, Riyadh, PNU, Piyadh

Line 3, Copenhagen Cityringen M3/M4, Honolulu, Milan line 4, Lima, etc…) provide effective answers to all

customer need:

• Transport Capacity from few thousands pphpd of light system operationg short trains, up to 60.000 pphpd and

more of heavy systems operating long trains

• Flexible Operational Headway up to 75 sec (design headway up to 60 sec)

• Max Speed up to 100 km/h

• Train width up to 3 m

• Train length over 100 m
