Abstract

Besides energy-efficiency, people also want train operation to be comfortable, punctual and parking precise. In this paper, a multi-objective model for automatic train operation in urban railway is proposed by unifying dimensions of different objectives firstly. This model is built by applying multi-objective decision with the penalty function, based on the analysis of train performance and its operation environment. Then a genetic algorithm is developed to solve this model and obtain the optimal recommended speed profiles. Thirdly, fuzzy controller is designed to achieve track recommended speed profiles. Finally, with the help of Matlab software, control effect is verified based on simulation. From the simulation results, it can be seen this strategy can meet the requirement of multi-objective, which are energy-saving, parking precisely, running punctually and comfort.
