FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
Standard IEC 62290 specifies the functional, system and interface requirements for the
command, control, and management systems that are used on urban, guided passenger
transport lines and networks. Trains operating on such lines may include heavy-duty
underground (metros) trains, commuter trains, light rail trains, trams and regional trains. This
standard does not apply to lines that are operated under specific railway regulations, unless
otherwise specified by the authority having jurisdiction, however this standard will recognise
the importance of maximising operational interoperability between interconnected UGTMS and
non-UGTMS networks.
These systems are designated here as Urban Guided Transport Management and
Command/Control Systems (UGTMS). UGTMS systems cover a wide range of applications
from manual to fully automated operation. A line may be equipped with UGTMS on its full
length or only partly equipped.
UGTMS requirements include consideration of the following:
– command/control and supervision of train movements;
– safety of train movement;
– safety of passengers and staff;
– factors affecting line capacity, train throughput and average train speed;
– factors affecting system availability;
– factors affecting system safety.
This standard does not specifically address security issues. However, aspects of safety
requirements may apply to assuring security within the urban guided transit system.
This standard defines a complete catalogue of UGTMS functional requirements split into
mandatory and optional functions, as well as customisation principles. The functions used are
based on the given grade of automation taking into account the grade of line. By fulfilling the
requirements, a supplier can create one or more generic applications including all mandatory
functions and all or a subset of optional functions. A generic application will achieve
interoperability within the defined boundary conditions. Customising a generic application will
create a specific application taking into account of local conditions like track layout and
headway requirements. It is in the choice of supplier and transport authority to add additional
functions to a generic or specific application. These additional functions are not described in
this standard.
The application of this standard is the responsibility of the transport authority concerned in
accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.
This standard is a recommendation for those transport authorities, wishing to introduce
interoperable, interchangeable and compatible equipment. It is the responsibility of transport
authorities, in accordance with authorities having jurisdiction, to take into account their
particular needs in the application of the standard.

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------

62290-1  IEC:2006 – 11 –
This standard is also applicable for upgrading of existing systems. In this case,
interchangeability and compatibility could be ensured only for the additional UGTMS
equipment. Checking the possibility for upgrading existing equipment and the level of
interoperability is the responsibility of the transport authority concerned. The definition of
generic interfaces with existing equipment, which may be customised for a specific
application, is within the scope of the standard.
This standard is not applicable to existing command and control systems or projects in
progress prior to the effective date of this standard.
Command and control systems which do not use data communications, between wayside
equipment and trains, for train protection purposes are not within the scope of this standard.
The main objective of this standard is to achieve interoperability, interchangeability and
compatibility.
Application of the standard should take into account the differences between the various
networks operated in different nations. Those differences include operational and regulatory
requirements as well as different safety cultures.
The standard is divided into four parts.
– Part 1 “System principles and fundamental concepts” provides an introduction to the
standard and deals with the main concepts, the system definition, the principles and the
main functions of UGTMS (Urban Guided Transport Management and Command/Control
Systems).
The three other parts correspond to the three steps required in the process of specifying
UGTMS and are to be used accordingly.
– Part 2 “Functional specifications” deals with the standardisation of functions and takes into
account all essential requirements and assignment of safety integrity level (SIL) (see
IEC 62278) as well as functional requirement specifications (FRS).
The FRS (Functional Requirement Specification) identifies and defines the functions that
are necessary to operate an urban guided transport system. Two types of functions are
distinguished for a given grade of automation taking into account grade of line: mandatory
functions (e.g. train detection) and optional functions (e.g. CCTV monitoring of platforms
and tracks).
– Part 3 “System specifications” deals with the architecture of the system and the allocation
of the requirements and functions identified in part 2 to architecture constituents (SRS).
The SRS (System Requirement Specification) specifies the architecture of a UGTMS
system, with mandatory and optional constituents.
– Part 4 “Interface specifications” deals with the definition of the interfaces, as well as the
data exchanged by them (FIS or/and FFFIS), for the interoperable and interchangeable
constituents identified in part 3.
For interfaces between UGTMS constituents, the logical interface or FIS (Functional
Interface Specification) and/or the physical and logical interface or FFFIS (Form Fit
Functional Interface Specification) will be considered.
NOTE The specific structures of part 3 and part 4 will be established following completion of part 2 to
accommodate optional and mandatory constituents, and to reflect local conditions. In principle, only one FIS or/and
FFFIS will be defined for the same interface. However, when justified in some cases several FIS or several FFFIS
will be defined for the same interface.

4 Concepts
4.1 Urban guided transport (UGT)
UGT is defined as a public transportation system in an urban environment with self-propelled
vehicles and operated on a guideway, which is segregated from general road and pedestrian
traffic.
Railway infrastructures which are part of a railway network operated under specific railway
regulations are excluded, unless otherwise specified by the authority having jurisdiction.
Trains of transport undertakings (e.g. underground/metro operators, tram operators, regional
and suburban operators) are included even if they are operated under specific railway
regulations, when they are designated to operate on UGTMS infrastructure. In this case,
trains of different transport undertakings shall fulfil the conditions of interoperability and the
requirements given by specific regulations.
4.1.1 Operation
Operation is considered as the totality of all means to effect the transportation of passengers,
including the training of operations staff and ma
