Theory and Technology for Improving High-Speed Railway Transportation Capacity present solutions to problems in utilizing new technologies for signaling in high-speed rail towards increasing capacity. The book examines capacity in terms of signaling control and for a railway transport organization. Key problems covered include station intervals and resource occupation. This book provides a handbook for developing capacity through new technology and methods in signaling.  Sections focus on improving high-speed railway transportation capacity using frontier railway technologies and include the experience of the authors on high-speed railways in China to present best practices and novel solutions to railway signaling control and transportation organization.

This title includes insights gained from years of work at the State Key Laboratory of Rail Traffic Control and Safety, offering readers a theoretical and systematic summary of the technology that can improve high-speed railway capacity.

• Focuses on improving high-speed railway transportation capacity at the frontier of railway technologies
• Examines capacity in terms of signaling control and railway transport organization
• Gives detailed descriptions of the state-of the-art in high-speed railway signaling, safety and traffic control systems
• Leverages research and expertise in high-speed railways from their rapid development and rollout across China
• Provides solutions to using new technologies in order to move beyond traditional approaches to railway signaling

Junfeng Wang is a Professor and the Vice Director of the State Key Laboratory of Rail Traffic Control and Safety, Beijing Jiaotong University. He received his Ph.D. degree from Beijing Jiaotong University, China; and has participated in several major projects on high-speed trains funded by the Chinese government in 2002. His research interests include intelligent transportation systems, communication-based train control, Radio Based Cab-Signaling, fault diagnosis, system reliability and safety, system-level fail-safe, mutual-discipline control studies in the high speed railway signaling system.
