Description of BS EN IEC 62290-2:2025 - TC 2025

IEC 62290-2:2025 specifies the functional requirements of UGTMS (urban guided transport management and command/control systems) for use in urban guided passenger transport lines and networks. This document is applicable for new lines or for upgrading existing signalling and command control systems. The IEC 62290 series specifies the functional, system and interface requirements for the command, control, and management systems intended to be used on urban, guided passenger transport lines and networks. These systems are designated herein as urban guided transport management and command/control systems (UGTMS). UGTMS cover a wide range of operations needs from non-automated (GOA1) to unattended (GOA4) operation. A line may be equipped with UGTMS on its full length or only partly equipped. The IEC 62290 series does not specifically address security issues. However, aspects of safety requirements may apply to ensuring security within the urban guided transit system. The main objectives of this series are as follows: * to provide a baseline system description and functional requirements specification for a transport authority to use in a request for proposal, * to provide recommendations for those transport authorities wishing to acquire an interoperable or interchangeable system. It is the responsibility of the transport authority concerned to decide on how to apply the IEC 62290 series and to take into account their particular needs. This document is applicable to applications using * continuous data transmission, * continuous supervision of train movements by train protection profile, and * localisation of trains by onboard UGTMS equipment (reporting trains), and optionally by external wayside (and optionally onboard) device. In this document, the functional requirements set the framework to which detailed functions are added to define any generic or specific application. Because of that, although this document is applicable as a basis to define SRS, FIS and FFFIS, elements can be added for a generic or specific application. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) the functions 5.1.4.5 Stopping a train en route, 5.1.5.4 Monitor speed limit at discrete location, 5.5.5 Manage UGTMS transfer tracks, 5.6.4.1 Monitor passenger emergency calls and 6.2.4 Ensure connecting services have been deleted; b) the functions 5.5.11 Manage train washing, 5.5.12 Manage non-stopping areas and 6.3.4 Perform progressive shutdown have been added; c) many of the requirements have been reworded: changes in their wording could be only minor and editorial, or it could have technical consequences; d) some requirements of the second edition have been moved from one function/subfunction to another; e) some requirements have been deleted; f) some new requirements have been added in the existing functions; g) an informative annex giving the reader some user’s recommendations about this document has been added; h) another informative annex giving some typical performance-related criteria has been also added. i) an informative annex providing a summary of applicability of functions and subfunctions (mandatory or optional) depending on GOA has been added. In order to avoid any disturbance in the use of the document, when functions or requirements of IEC
