Abstract :
The railway signal control is an important guarantee for the safety of railway transportation. Due to the over-concentration of signal control currently, the system becomes increasingly complex and high-speed and heavy rail transport resulting in the shortened time of maintenanc, this paper presents a railway signal based on multi-agent architecture of the control system and discusses in detail the composition of its parts and functions, suggesting the communication method between multi-agent and multi agent synergy between the mechanisms. Agent, by the introduction of multi-rail signal control system, can be a new control structure to improve the railway signal control model and improve the signal control system reliability and availability.
