Railway transportation is required to serve without rest every day. In Japan trains and platforms are terribly crowded every morning and evening, so that the Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) Systems need high performance. On the other hand, the systems need high reliability since the tickets they process are equivalent to cash. This paper introduces Autonomous Cooperative Processing Technology for...
With the diversification of users and systems requirements, the integration of control and information systems has become more and more important. In these systems, assurance is required to achieve high performance of real-time control and high reliability of the transaction process. However, in high load transaction conditions, it is difficult for conventional centralized systems to achieve data...
Service continuity, high performance, and high reliability are required in automatic fare collection systems. To comply with these requirements, the autonomous decentralized architecture has been introduced to the IC (integrated circuit) card ticket system. Based on the architecture, two technologies have been implemented: 'autonomous decentralized fare calculation algorithm" for high performance...
High-load transaction systems such as the IC (integrated circuit) card ticket system require high performance, high reliability, and service continuity. However, the wireless communications have a problem that higher performance at the gates results in lower reliability in the data. The solution is the Autonomous Decentralized Architecture, in which "IC cards," "terminals, " and...
Both high performance and high reliability are necessary for the automatic fare collection system. The IC card ticket system, developed in order to improve the passengers' satisfaction and to reduce the maintenance costs, cannot avoid the requirements, either. However, this new system has a problem; high performance on wireless communications lowers reliability. The solutions are the "autonomous...
Automatic fare collection systems (AFCSs) require high speed and high reliability. The automatic fare collection gates (AFCGs) must let the passengers pass as quickly as possible because the congested passengers rush to them during rush hours. High-speed processing on wireless communications lowers reliability. It had been a problem when East Japan Railway Company was developing a wireless IC card...
The automatic fare collection systems need both high-speed processing and high reliability. High-speed processing is one of the most expected functions on the automatic fare collection gates (AFCGs) handling the highly dense passengers during rush hours. Reliability is also indispensable because the tickets are equivalent to notes. On the other hand, a wireless IC card ticket system is preferable...
High speed and high reliability are required of the automatic fare collection systems (AFCSs). In the congested environments, as seen in the trains and stations in Japan during rush hours, the automatic fare collection gates (AFCGs) must let the passengers pass as quickly as possible but cannot roughly handle the tickets equivalent to notes. Establishment of high speed and high reliability on wireless...
To improve the processing speed of the automatic fare collection gates (AFCG) is one of the important problems to correspond to the passengers getting on and off in high-density transportation at the peak. On the other hand, reliability is indispensable to handle tickets, which are worth notes. Therefore, ticket system must have both high-speed processing and high reliability. To improve passengers'...
