Abstract
The compatibility of AC propulsion systems with coded train detection and on-board speed code reception systems is always a concern. A revie w of an automatic train control system commissioned for Greater Cairo Metro System is presented. The compatibility of track-to-train transmi ssion with the inverter-controlled AC drive and the 750 V DC third-rai l power supply is also examined.
