LZB 80 On-board Equipment

The continuous automatic train control (ATC) system using the LZB 80 on-board equipment provides the driver with advanced information about anticipated signals and speed restrictions up to 10 km ahead. If the specified speed is exceeded, emergency braking is initiated.

The LZB 80 On-board Equipment is used in
main-line services, particularly in high-speed traffic or for the control of trains with long braking distances
German rapid transit system (planned in Munich)

 

LZB 80 benefits
Signals only at crossovers (on high-speed lines)
Cab signalling, with precedence over trackside signals
Monitoring of vehicles based on freely selectable characteristics (maximum speed, train length, braking force)
Continuous ATC system is an overlay system of the interlocking system
Data transmission is independent of the track vacancy detection system
High carrier frequencies for high data rates
Transmission gaps up to 300 m (e.g. due to damaged line conductor cable) are bridged
