摘要: 轨道交通车车通信作为列车虚拟编组系统中的关键环节,深刻影响着虚拟编组状态下列车间的协调运行。在分析通信时延概率分布特征的基础上,探讨了通信延误对列车虚拟编组的影响,为车车通信系统性能设计提供理论支撑。提出一种列车动力学模型,利用模型预测控制(MPC)的方法实现多列车间的虚拟编组协调运行控制。通过该模型仿真实验分析不同概率分布情况下的通信时延对虚拟编组列车控制系统的影响。实验结果表明,较大的通信时延扰动将加剧虚拟编组系统的振荡,这些问题将给列车的平稳运行与节能带来挑战。Abstract: As a key part of virtual coupling system, rail transit vehicle-to-vehicle communication has a profound impact on the coordinated operation of virtually coupled train formation. Based on the analysis of the probability distribution characteristics of communication delays, this study explores the impact of communication delays on the virtual coupling of trains, providing theoretical support for the design of vehicle-to-vehicle communication system performance. The article first proposes a train dynamics model and uses model predictive control (MPC) to achieve coordinated operation control between multiple trains in the virtual coupling. Through simulation experiments with different probability distribution scenarios of communication delays, the study analyzes the impact of communication delays on the virtual coupling control system for trains. The experimental results show that larger communication delay disturbances exacerbate oscillations in the virtual coupling system. These issues pose challenges to the smooth operation and energy efficiency of trains.
