Status:
IEEE Std 1474.1-2004
CBTC Performance & Functional Requirements is now a published standard, available for purchase from the IEEE On-Line Store. This is a revision of the 1999 publication and now includes automatic train operation.

IEEE Std 1474.2-2003
Standard for User Interface Requirements in CBTC is now a published standard, available for purchase from the IEEE On-Line Store.

IEEE P1474.3
Recommended Practice for Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) System Design and Functional Allocation is now in ballot.

IEEE Std 1474.1-2004, IEEE Standard Method for CBTC Performance and Functional Requirements

Scope:
This standard establishes a set of performance and functional requirements necessary for enhancing performance, availability, operations, and train protection using a CBTC system.

Purpose:
There are currently no independent standards defining the performance and functional requirements to be satisfied by CBTC systems. This standard will enhance performance, availability, operations, and train protection, and will facilitate new CBTC applications.

IEEE Std 1474.2-2003, IEEE Standard for User Interface Requirements in CBTC

Scope:
This standard establishes user interface requirements in CBTC systems.

Purpose:
This standard will provide for consistent user interfaces that take advantage of the characteristics of CBTC systems to enhance service effectiveness of a rail transit system.

IEEE P1474.3, IEEE Recommended Practice for Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) System Design and Functional Allocation

Scope:
This recommended practice establishes a preferred system design and functional allocation for CBTC systems.

Purpose:
The purpose of this recommended practice is to define a preferred CBTC system design/system architecture to achieve the CBTC performance and functional requirements of IEEE Std. 1474.1-2004, and to allocate functions to the major CBTC subsystems.
