Title: MODELING THE RAILWAY TRAFFIC USING CELLULAR AUTOMATA MODEL
Abstract: The NaSch model is a probabilistic cellular automaton (CA) model for the description of single-lane highway traffic. Based on this model, we propose a new cellular automata model for the railway traffic. The signaling system adopted in this work is the moving block signaling system. In our model, the distance between the following train and its leading train takes into account the velocity of the leading train. The simulation results demonstrate that our model is suitable for simulating the railway traffic. Compared our scheme to the traditional moving-space-block scheme, it is obvious that using our scheme, not only the line capacity can be increased, but also the traffic flow states are safer.
