Can I have your attention, please? Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. The presentation is devoted to my project in Intelligent Transport Systems. It deals with the problem of implementation of Intelligent Traffic Management Systems into rail transport sector and European Railway Traffic Management Systems as an example. The project in general discloses the present state of ERTMS. It has three parts. Part one is about Intelligent Transport Systems - in my presentation I will use the abbreviation ITS. Part two deals with European Railway Traffic Management Systems or ERTMS. Part three focuses on the problem of the use of analogues of intelligent transport systems for Russian railways. The report will take about 5 minutes. I’ll try to answer all of your questions after the presentation. So, let me start with the problem of ITS. In the past the safety of railway traffic depended on actions by humans. Today the situation is different: IT has become the reality of the transportation sector in most countries. So railway systems are widely automated. That is why the problem of ITS is of great interest. Now have a look at this slide. Here you can see some problems that could be solved with the help of ITS Known as applications of communication and electronics technologies in transport systems, ITS are implemented to improve safety, increase rail transport efficiency and reduce negative impact on society and environment. Move on to the next slide. Here I’d like to draw your attention to the classification of ITS. These systems are mainly grouped as follows: traffic management systems, traveller information systems and e-ticketing systems. This leads me to the next point in my presentation. It is European Railway Traffic Management Systems or ERTMS. I must note that traffic management systems are focused on different covered areas: rail networks, railway stations (Interlocking systems) and trucks (outside of railway stations). The latter includes ERTMS. ERTMS is a major industrial project developed by eight companies. Their names are listed here. The project includes two main components: 1. The first is the European Train Control System. It is a new automatic train protection system. 2. The second is GSM-R, a radio system for providing voice and data communication between the track and the train. It is based on standard GSM using frequencies specifically reserved for rail application with certain specific and advanced functions. I’d like you to look at this table, which shows the advantages of ERTMS. Firstly, trains equipped with ERTMS are able to run on tracks equipped with ERTMS. It makes easier cross border freight operations. Besides, ERTMS reduce the headway between trains enabling up to 40% more capacity on currently existing infrastructure. Secondly, ERTMS provide geographical interoperability between countries and interoperability between European suppliers. And finally ERTMS with several levels of development make an easy level by level elevation. In conclusion let me say that the analysis of European experience helped to define another problem: the use of analogues of ITS for Russian railways to improve safety, to increase rail transport efficiency and to reduce negative impact on the environment. Thank you for your attention. Feel free to ask questions.
