Tender invited for Development of Train Collision Avoidance System

give the design of such towers alongwith site proposed to be installed and safety
certificate by the independent consultant. The site for each tower is required to be
got approved by the competent Railway authority also.
4.9 Loco equipment shall be maintained in the Electric and Diesel locosheds
nominated by South Central Railway. The firms are required to provide test bench
for maintenance and repair at these sheds and also to test and troubleshoot loco
equipment when it is coming out from locoshed. A kit for configuring,
programming and downloading the Loco Equipment is also required to be provided
by the firm.
4.10 The firm is also required to supply programming kit for RFID tags and test setup
for station equipment for maintenance and repair of way side equipment at a
location identified by Railways. A kit for configuring, programming and
downloading the Station Equipment in both modes - locally and remotely- is also
required to be provided by the tenderer.
4.11 Testing in Lab. :
4.11.1 The testing & demonstration of Lab Model shall be carried out by the
vendor to the RDSO team at their premises or lab or at RDSO where two
Loco and Stationary equipments shall be exchanging information at RF
Level through antennae.
4.11.2 A Simulator shall be used for demonstration and testing which shall have
provision only of receiving the transmissions made by various Loco and
Stationary units. All the real-time communication between various Loco
and Stationary TCAS units shall be captured and logged by Simulator with
facility of real-time and offline display of raw data, interpretable
presentation through fields decoded from communication packets and
functional GUI display alongwith configuration parameter settings, analysis
summary, generation of exceptions and Statistics.
4.11.3 The speedometer information shall be fed to the Loco Equipment model
through a simulator. The output of Brake Interface Unit shall also be
demonstrated by physical operation of solenoid valves to control venting of
air in case of Air-Vent type BIU. The movement of train shall be simulated
through physical swiping of RFID Tags across the RFID Reader of the
Loco Lab Model and GPS Receiver Simulator application. The Speed
information shall be through Tachometer output simulator in form of Pulse
Generator. For simulating interface with interlocking, a switch panel shall
be used.
4.11.4 The changes informed by RDSO Committee shall be complied, tested along
with submission of compliance and testing report before the system is
deployed in the field for further demonstration.
4.12 Testing in Field :
4.12.1 The testing & demonstration of field system shall be carried out by tenderer
to RDSO team in the nominated section. All the real-time communication
received by TCAS system shall be captured and logged by Simulator with
facility of real-time and offline display of raw data, interpretable
