The high-speed train operation control system is the key technology and core equipment to ensure the safety operation of high-speed trains and to improve the efficiency of transportation. In order to further improve passenger transportation capacity on the premise of ensuring safety, it is critical to development the theory and method of train operation control with autonomous cooperative ability for the intelligent high-speed railway.The autonomous cooperative operation control of high-speed trains has become one of the core issues to ensure the safety operation of high-speed railways and improve the capacity of passenger transportation. The project will focus on the key scientific problems of the autonomous collaborative sensing mechanism of high-speed trains in complex environments, the multi-vehicle dynamic cooperative control modeling theory under vehicle-vehicle communication, and the distributed control method of high-speed train groups under switched topologies. The project focuses on the autonomous sensing and fusion of full spatial-temporal information in high-speed mobile environment, the intelligent autonomous control of state-driven high-speed trains, the multi-vehicle train headway optimization control based on vehicle-vehicle communication, the distributed cooperative control of train groups based on swarm intelligence, and the construction and experimental verification of simulation platform for autonomous cooperative control systems. The research results of the proposed project will provide strong systematic theories and technical reserves for the continuous innovation of the core technology of China's next generation high-speed train operation control system, and provide new energy for the "continuous lead" of China's high-speed train technology.
