Abstract
Because of the rising energy prices and environmental concerns, the calculation
of energy-optimal reference trajectories for trains is significant for energy
saving. On the other hand, with the development automatic train operation
(ATO), the optimal trajectory planning is significant to the performance of
train operation. In this paper, we present an integrated survey of this field.
First, a nonlinear continuous-time train model and a continuous-space model of
train operations are described, after which the optimal trajectory planning
problem is formulated based on these two models. The various approaches in the
literature to calculate the reference trajectory are reviewed and categorized
into two groups: analytical solutions and numerical optimization. Finally, a
short discussion of some open topics in the field of optimal trajectory
planning for train operations are given.
