When an interlocking device is improved, a large number of signal cables have to be re-laid and wiring connections must be confirmed. There are possibilities of wiring errors in the improvement of the interlocking device. A signal control system using an optical LAN is developed for the purpose of reduction of signal cables and wiring work. This system controls signal devices by transmitting digital information through an optical network, and it has a method of system configuration to make the system more flexible and secure. To introduce this system effectively, an application of assurance technologies is necessary because this system coexists with the existent interlocking device over the period of construction and operation.In this paper, we introduce this system and describe assurance technologies used for this system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
