ABSTRACT

In this paper, the writer analyzed the functions of each subsystem and its interfaces within the rolling stock system required for an automated driverless metro system, using the latest driverless metro project, Circle Line, in Singa-pore as a basis.

As a conclusion, a careful and managed balance of the key interfaces is crucial to the success of a driverless metro performance. It is essential to define, design, build, test and commission the rolling stock system mindfully. Recom-mendations to adopt systems engineering and systems integration to manage the interfaces within rolling stock system were also made.

Keywords: Interface, Rolling stock, Systems integration.
