PROVEN TECHNOLOGY& PROVEN KNOW-HOW
With urban populations continuously growing and the need for green solutions obvious, mass transit systems worldwide are hard pressed for long-term solutions. Communications Based Train Control (CBTC) is the latest generation of technology for metro and suburban rail networks. It gives operators precise control in the movement of their trains, allowing more trains to run on the line at higher frequencies and speeds in total safety — with or without drivers. CBTC improves capacity, efficiency, reliability, safety and operating costs.

HIGH-PERfORmANCE CBTC TECHNOLOGY:
> Easy expansion for line extensions by adding communication and interface modules.
> Easy integration of additional functions and connectivity to external systems, thanks to network-based architecture using standard interfaces.
> Best immunity against interference ensured by our robust radio technology with coding option from the IEEE802,11b/g standards in the 2.4 or 5.8 GHz band.
> Obsolescence-proof through the use of Alstom’s core signaling products and subsystems (Alstom safety computers, SmARTLOCK interlocking, ICONIS control center,…).
> Safe, designed to international standards (CENELEC*) and developed with formal software specification and proof processes.
> Minimum trackside equipment for secondary detection to ensure operation in degraded mode.
*CENELEC : European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization
DESIGNED TO OPTImIZE mETRO OPERATIONS:
> top performance: the system works with the “moving block” principle to ensure train operating headways as short as 85 seconds, resulting in the highest possible line capacity.
> Flexible operations from the control center: trains are run to a timetable or with a constant time interval between them, with automatic readjustment in case of perturbations. Trains can be easily inserted or withdrawn and are controlled to arrive at stations with a precision of 1 second.
> driverless (or upgradeability to driverless) system: the system integrates all the features and interfaces for driverless operation.
> Energy saving: the most energy-saving speed profile is calculated according to the train speed chosen. If regenerative braking is not available, for example due to long train intervals, the system will make maximum use of train coasting to save energy.
> High availability: a combination of full redundancy of architecture, high component reliability, and immediate detection of component failure ensures optimum availability.
> Easy maintenance: The system provides rapid diagnostics with centralized maintenance Support System (mSS).
SMARtLOCK™ interlockingOur proven interlocking relies on a redundant and fault-tolerant platform and requires only minimum line possession during commissioning.
ICONIS™ control centerOur control system guarantees train adherence to schedules, automatic route setting, conflict-free use of resources. ICONIS can be scaled to the network’s size and complexity and can integrate Supervisory Control And data Acquisition (SCAdA), on-board and in-station passenger information system, security system and maintenance supervision system.
SMARtwAY™ conventional productsAlstom offers one of the largest portfolios of conventional trackside signaling products to address specific needs. It includes point machines, train detection and signals.
Maintenance Support System (MSS)Our approach allows the system to gather all maintenance information on all equipment integrated into an URBALIS solution through the network.

URBALIS is built on 3 networks compliant with international standards (IEEE*) and integrated into a data Communication System (dCS) to provide continuous, seamless communication. The network can be implemented to provide non-vital signaling solutions such as Passenger Information and Security systems. The trainborne ATC computer continuously updates the trackside safety computer on the position of the train, and receives a detailed description of the line and movement authorities.

CHINA, BEIjING AIRPORT ExPRESS:
New driverless line equipped with URBALIS within two yearsChina’s first automatic metro, a 28-km elevated Airport Express, links Beijing city center to capital international airport. Our advanced CBTC system provides real-time multimedia communication between the control center and the trains, and allows the trains to run at 110 km/h. Alstom delivered the project to Beijing dongzhimen Airport Express Rail within two years, in time for the 2008 Olympic Games.
…AND BEIjING LINE 2:
Disruption-free renovationfor the Olympic Games In parallel, Alstom resignalled Beijing’s Line 2 with URBALIS for Beijing metro Operation Company, allowing the line to operate now with a 2-minute headway and near-perfect availability. No line closures or service reduction were allowed during the two-year renovation due to a rigorous schedule of night work: 3 hours each night on alternate weeks over the 9 months of integration, test and commissioning. The advanced radio solution allows a seamless handover from free propagation to waveguide propagation sections.
SINGAPORE, NORTH EAST & CIRCLE LINES:
World’s longest fully automatic metro first to use radio CBTCAlstom supplied the world’s first radio CBTC system to Singapore’s Land Transit Authority (LTA) for its 20 km, 16-station North East Line and as part of a turnkey project for its 33 km, 29-station Circle Line. With these two lines, Singapore has the world’s longest and highest capacity fully automatic metro first to use radio CBTC. Thanks to URBALIS, the networks meets operator LTA’s high standards for availability, safety and service quality. For Circle Line, Alstom also provided rolling stock, track work, system engineering and integration in a turnkey contract.
SWITZERLAND, LAUSANNE m2:
A new metro running on a steep gradient Lausanne Transport Authority chose Alstom’s driverless URBALIS system to transform and extend its m2 line into a high performance “backbone” for public transport in the city. The Alstom solution of rubber-tired trains and advanced Automatic Train Control (ATC) is adapted to the line’s specific geographical constraints: 12% slopes and tight 40-meter curves. Stations have platform screen doors and trains feature real-time video surveillance for a fully secure and supervised environment.
BRAZIL, SÃO PAULO mETRO LINES 1,2,3:
Driverless-ready systeminstalled for world’s busiest metro In 2008, the State of São Paulo selected Alstom to renovate lines 1, 2 & 3 of its metro with no disruption to service. A sizeable challenge for the world’s busiest metro lines. Alstom is installing its URBALIS CBTC as an upgradeable driverless-ready system to give operator CmSP (Companhia do metropolitano de São Paulo) greater efficiency and transport capacity. Passenger service began in 2010 on the extension of line 2, and will continue with the other sections, for operations with platform screen doors on some stations and 3 fully automated depots. In a separate contract, Alstom has also been modernizing the rolling stock.
