Abstract

This paper describes a communication system for the test track that will be used to develop the components of a new train concept, the RailCab. The demand for flexible hardware architecture and optimized communication channels motivated this project. The aim of the network is to control frequency converters for linear motor sections placed along the track. The vehicles that are moving along the track at a given time will issue the commands to each motor. In order to optimize the communication functions, new hardware components and a new protocol were designed, so that modules accessing network are able to do this in a more direct way.
