  • Patent number: 12252164
    Abstract: The invention relates to an operation diagram-based method for automatically changing a route to turn back in case of interruption. The method obtains an alternative turn-back point according to the position of a fault point and the information of a line turn-back station, calculates a corresponding turn-back plan of the alternative turn-back point according to an operation diagram of the current day, and finally automatically changes an online train route according to the new turn-back plan, so as to realize automatic turn-back of a train after route adjustment in case of interruption. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantage of being able to keep the compatibility with an existing operation diagram while quickly changing a route in case of partial line interruption, so as to facilitate quick recovery of planned operation after a fault is removed.
