Description

Communications-based train control (CBTC) is a railway signaling system that makes use of the telecommunications between the train and track equipment for the traffic management and infrastructure control. By means of the CBTC systems, the exact position of a train is known more accurately than with the traditional signaling systems. This results in a more efficient and safe way to manage the railway traffic. Metros (and other railway systems) are able to improve headways while maintaining or even improving safety.

The main companies of Global Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) include Alstom SA, CRSC, BJ-TCT, etc. These top three companies hold a market share about 53%. China and Europe are the main production regions in the world. The product is mainly used in passenger and freight rail system.
