(3) NEL will use Alstom’s Axonis electromechanical system which integrates a large range of Alstom
products including trains, signaling, power supply, tracks, and communication. Signaling includes:
- Mastria automatic train control system based on block signaling with two-way digital
transmission, automatic train protection (ATP), automatic train operation (ATO), and a train data
management system;
- Iconis data management system to monitor and control the signaling equipment, platform
doors, and trains;
- Smartlock electronic interlocking which implements the interlocking functions both on
the line and in the depot; it also interfaces with Mastria and Iconis;
- Smartway conventional signaling equipment such as track circuits, point machines, and
signals;
- Agate real-time passenger information and in-train entertainment using LCD¹ and plasma
displays to provide high-resolution colour images.
(4) The two-way continuous transmission system uses a wave-guide information network for fail-safe
ATO, works, and passenger information. It has a wide bandwidth that enables it to transmit video. Up-to-date
technology, originally developed for military transmission, protects communications against interference. The
strong leaky wave-guide is laid along the track.
Note: 1) LCD – a liquid crystal display.
