Abstract

The In accordance with the standard calculating method, the influence factors analysis of high-speed railway train headway is carried, and the technical measures of cutting down the train headway is proposed. Based on CRH380AL EMU with the speed of 300 km/h, the contrast of the train tracing interval of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail before and after the control is obvious, which is calculated by the traction calculation simulation software. The result proved the probability of setting the train headway as 4 min on Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail. In addition, the experiment examine the technical measures of cutting down the train headway is scientific and reasonable.
