Design and Application of Collaborative Monitoring System for Freight Shunting in Marshalling Stations
The collaboration of railway freight shunting operations is key to the junction of the station freight department and the operation department,which directly affects the efficiency of shunting and freight operations.By sorting out the current situation of railway freight shunting operations,this paper analyzed the shortcomings of freight shunting operations in terms of early planning and confirmation,operational progress efficiency,and emergency command efficiency.The collaborative monitoring system for freight shunting in marshalling stations was developed based on the comprehensive automation system of marshalling stations,including five functional modules:track status monitoring,loading and unloading operation plan preparation,shunting operation management,shunting operation collaboration,and other functions.Based on the field operation process,the system was developed with the East Suburb Special Line of Tongliao Railway Station as a case to build the overall software architecture based on the data resource layer,service support layer,and business application layer.Vehicle number recognition equipment and wheel sensors were set up in non-centralized areas to achieve planning collaboration,operation monitoring,equipment monitoring,and safety card control between operation and freight positions.Through simulation testing and on-site testing,the system has played a role in improving the level of information technology and operational efficiency,achieving partial state visualization and operational verification,and providing strong technical support for the development of railway freight shunting operations.
