Abstract
In this paper, the concept of Obstacle Detection and Track Intrusion Detection (OD&TID) systems related to the operation of trains is introduced, along with a potential concept for such a system. The main focus of the work presented here is the identification and description of system requirements and Use Cases (UC), their detailed classification, including general UCs for mainline railway and UCs specific to freight, as well as an analysis of the UCs and of the method used. The identified UCs have been organised with respect to the mode of operation, Grade of Automation (GoA), and operating conditions. The UCs were further analysed in different UC scenarios, including the pre-conditions, system response, actions made by OD&TID and associated systems and the post use conditions of the scenarios. The priority for implementation and complexity of each UC are discussed with respect to the probability of scenario occurrence and required interfaces. This work has been carried out as part of the process to evaluate implementation constraints, risks and requirements, and the operational scenarios of the OD&TID developed within the EU-funded Shift2Rail project SMART2, which aims to design and develop a prototype OD&TID system.
