May 2021 - December 2023

Funding entity Siemens Rail Automation S.A.U

Participated by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya


The objective of this project is the design and implementation of efficient ATO speed commands in FGC railway line in Tarrasa and Sabadell branches. These ATO speed commands are selected and sent to the train by the traffic regulation system in real-time. The new ATO speed commands must comply with technical, operational and comfort restrictions and will minimise the energy consumption.
