TRainCom^® features an embedded diagnosis system to monitor the radio system functionality. In addition to this system-internal capability, the radio system can be used for the transmission of real-time diagnosis information of the trains and their auxiliary systems and sub-systems (e.g. heating, air conditioning, lighting, PIS, propulsion, etc.). This offers a continuous control of the trains by overall comprehensive train diagnosis system to detect critical problems before the train causes serious problems on the metro line. This type of online detection and diagnosis capability offers important information, particularly in driverless and unattended operation scenarios. With permanent monitoring of all essential train aspects, relevant maintenance activities can be done in a target-oriented and planned manner to reduce extra costs.


Advantages:

• Plannable target-oriented maintenance
• Reduced costs for maintenance activities
• Early warning capability for train defects
• Reduced downtimes of trains
• Improved transportation performance value
• Better passenger satisfaction
