The article describes current situation and expected deployment of international standard for automatic rail vehicle protection in Czech Republic for period 2014 – 2020. Article introduces expected status in 2020 and subsequent implementation of commitments until 2026. It introduces expected result of gradual implementation for tracks and vehicles. It also displays brief deployment overview of European Rail Traffic Management System in European Union countries for each level of European Train Control System.

The chapter shows an approach to use existing test methods to prove technical as well as operational interoperability. The first kinds of tests are test sequences to validate conformity of a single constituent – here, an on-board on-board unit (OBU) of the European Train Control System (ETCS) in the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS). The second kind of tests is the integration test for assemblies – here, the complete on-board equipment. The third kinds of tests are the tests for the validation of operational serviceability. An approach for the stepwise integration of the different kinds of tests is shown. As a conclusion the perspective for the use of these test sequences in an independent test lab is given.

The need for time- and cost-efficient tests is highly relevant for state-of-the-art safety-related train control and rail traffic management systems. Those systems get increasingly more complex and so testing becomes a more and more and important cost factor. This chapter discusses some approaches to relocate tests from the field to the lab, reduce cost and duration while improving quality of lab tests. The European Train Control System (ETCS) is used as an example, but the approaches and results can be applied to other systems as well, for instance interlocking.

Railway systems have evolved considerably in the last years with the adoption of new communication technologies. Aiming to achieve a single European railway network, the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) emerged in Europe to substitute multiple and noninteroperable national railway communication systems. This system and its security strategies were designed in late 1990s. Recent works have identified vulnerabilities related to integrity, authenticity, availability, and confidentiality. In the context of defining effective countermeasures to mitigate potential vulnerabilities, these vulnerabilities have to be analysed. In this article we introduce a framework that attempts to challenge ERTMS security by evaluating the exploitability of these vulnerabilities.

The article considers the new automated air traffic management system «Synthesis AR4», as well as a system description for ensuring the implementation of a modernized airspace structure, navigation and surveillance that provides technical capabilities. A number of functional capabilities and advantages of the airspace security system are presented.
