In a driverless operation system, trains run without a driver on board. Train operation and status is remotely controlled and adjusted from the OCC based on the two-way Radio Frequency-Communication Based Train Control (CBTC). This high-end system can minimizes faults and operation delays through securing redundant systems and automatic route change functions. This operation system also ensures safety through minimizing human error, which accounts for the largest portion out of the cause of railway accidents

Train operation of Shinbundang DX Line is automated by pre-arranged programs, and is committed to providing safe and faster transport service for passengers via OCC equipped with cutting-edge technology and facilities

At the initial phase after the line opening, a safety staff (CSO) with a train driver license is deployed on each train for a certain period in order to address possible anxiety of passengers and immediately deal with any train faults. The driverless operation system of DX Line, which places its first priority on the safety of customers, prevents accidents caused from human error and guarantees to carry passengers in scientific and safe manner via remote control from the OCC

   Establishment of redundant safety back-up system for major equipment

   • - Prevention of situation where a train stops in the tunnel between stations
   • - Train Control Monitoring System (TCMS), braking system, Public Address (PA)/Passenger Information System (PIS), door control, Static Inverter System (SIV), etc
   • - Recording of operation status of on-board equipment and systems, automatic control and recovery, self-diagnosis function

   

   Remote control function from OCC

   • - Transmission of on-board equipment operation and train status information
   • - Real-time monitoring and remote control function (automatic implementation such as train operation, turn-back, stabling)
   • - Direct Broadcasting of public announcements

   

   Safety devices

   • - Platform: PSD, transmission of operation information via an on-board video phone
   • - Train inside: Emergency exit end door, fire detector, CCTV, emergency interphone, etc
   • - Detection of obstacles on tracks and train derailment

   

   Safety staff on-board

   • - Deployment of safety staff (CSO) on each trainset at the initial stage after opening of DX Line (demonstration of reliability)
   • - Emergency response to any train failure and manual driving of a train
   • - Customer services, such as customer guidance, controlling of illegal and unlicensed vendors

   Establishment of Emergency transportation tools and systems for dispatch to an incident site at every station
   - Prompt activation from every station to a section with a train operation failure
   
   Deployment of professional CSO (Driver license holder)
   - Manual operation of a train in an emergency
   - Supervision of train operation status and provision of customer service activities
   - Initial response to any train operation failure
   
   Operation of mobile maintenance team
   - First line maintenance in case of failure
