The norm is here!Expert interpretation of the subway AFC system how to serve travel

What system? What FC? What is AFC system AF? AFC system ... Haven't heard of the AFC system? In fact, we use it every day ~ swipe the code to enter the station, hold the IC card, and buy tickets for automatic ticket machines ... It is the abbreviation of the AFC system for the AFC system. As an automated integrated system that realizes the entire process of urban rail transit, ticket inspection, billing, charging, statistics, clearing, and management, it is positively infiltrated in all aspects of rail transit travel. Recently, the Ministry of Transport issued the "Technical Specifications for the Operation of Urban Rail Transit Automatic Ticket Sales System (Trial)" (referred to as "Technical Specifications"). Detailed regulations have been made. To this end, the reporter interviewed a number of industry experts • Beijing Rail Transit Command Center expert Zhang Li • Beijing Quan Road Communication Signal Research and Design Institute Group Co., Ltd. Deputy Chief Engineer Li Yu • China Railway Design Group Co., Ltd. Jingyan, deputy chief engineer of the Academy, Zhou Shishuang, chairman of Shenzhen Shenzhen Tong Co., Ltd., asked them to analyze the current status, application situation and development trends of the AFC system to discuss the significance of the "Technical Specifications" to promoting rail transit services. Shanghai Metro Automatic Ticketing Machine. Weekly supply ticket sales automatically integrated today, do you get fast enough today? Recently, Beijing has realized the function of automatically verifying the health code information at all subway stations to automatically verify the health code information. This upgrade has only spent more than ten days. Behind high efficiency is the autonomous controllable AFC system. "The development of my country's AFC system has gone through three stages: introduction, domesticization and curve overtaking." Zhang Li introduced. In recent years, my country has carried out a lot of development and development on the AFC system, and the technical level has also continued to improve. "Early AFC systems were mainly used for fare computing, ticket charges, passenger flow statistics, etc. In recent years, the AFC system has gradually transformed into an open, passenger -oriented comprehensive service system." Zhou Shishuang said. According to Li Yu, rail transit was originally used for single fares. After using the AFC system, the support of information technology is of great significance to the differentiated costs of tickets and the implementation of preferential policies. "From the perspective of the AFC system architecture, it has developed from the" line center -station -ticket card "to the 'clear score center -multi -line center -station -ticket card'." Based on a variety of sales ticket functions such as stations, the public ride experience is constantly improving. Chengdu subway gate supports the function of "brushing face". At present, Chengdu Metro Operation Co., Ltd. is currently provided that the construction and application experience of AFC systems such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Shenzhen are rich, but many second -tier and third -tier cities are gradually exploring the development path that suits them. Zhang Li believes that although the development of my country's AFC system is already internationally leading, there are still problems with imbalanced development and inadequate development. Automatic ticket sales and other equipment systems still lack unified technical requirements in terms of key content, key indicators, etc. The gradual diversification of the ticket sales method also urgently need to put forward the corresponding technical requirements for the AFC system from the perspective of operation to adapt to the development of the industry. The "Specification" provides a standard guidance module as compatible as a computer inserting a USB flash drive? In 2014, Beijing Rail Transit was adjusted from the original 2 yuan single -vote system to the fare of the project. The Beijing Rail Transit Road Network was transformed. The core components of more than 2,000 equipment, which is a very large workload. Today, Beijing's rail transit has a coverage of the full system and perfect AFC system technical standards, which solves the problem of interchangeable, module swap, and software exchange of hardware equipment. The modules of each manufacturer can be compatible with the U disk into the U disk into the U disk. Essence In addition, Shenzhen is also promoting the standardization of the AFC system equipment components and the unified software version of the software version. For endless business needs and new technologies, the construction and transformation of AFC systems are facing huge challenges. Li Yu believes that "Technical Specifications" put forward systematic specifications for the performance requirements and security of the AFC system, which is of great significance to the application and promotion of the AFC system. The "Technical Specifications" proposes that the installation size, hardware configuration, and interface requirements of the station terminal equipment and ticket sale and recycling modules, banknotes, gates and pass control devices, tickets read and write modules, QR code modules and other dedicated modules should be supported Physics and logical swap. In this regard, Jingyan said that in the past, due to different integrators and equipment, the modules of different lines were not common. By formulating module standards, the equipment and modules could be used to be universal. At the Guangqing Intercity Railway Huadu Station, Guangzhou Public Transport and "Railway 12306" two sets of ticketing systems are parallel. Reporter Lin Chuzhong's picture "Biometrics, cloud computing, blockchain and other new technologies have provided external motivation for the change of the AFC system, and also challenged the AFC system upgrade. The system upgrade time. "Zhang Li introduced that standardized construction can guide the city to improve the level of AFC system construction.

How long is the automatic ticket ticket card on sale? How many people do the automatic ticket check machine pass per minute? In response to the level of service capabilities of the AFC system, the "Technical Specifications" put forward clear requirements. "Technical Specifications also focuses on testing tests that are related to system reliability, availability, maintenance, and security." Zhang Li said. The "Technical Specifications" pointed out that before the AFC system was put into operation, it encouraged quality testing such as prototype detection, expanding scope detection, and access operation detection in accordance with relevant technical standards to improve the quality of equipment operation. It is understood that at present, rail transits in Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Zhengzhou and other places have gradually carried out inspection and testing of AFC systems. Among them, Beijing also established the AFC system professional testing center to play a role in controlling the level of software and hardware services from the source. "" Technical Specifications "provides direction for cities with lack of experience in AFC systems, telling them what functions should the system have, what services are provided, how to ensure system security, etc." Zhang Li said. There is no need to download multiple APPs for passengers' travel needs. "After the two places are connected, the travel code is much more convenient to travel. There is no need to get a two -dimensional code to go to Guangzhou." Mr. Wang, a Shenzhen citizen, said. In December 2021, the Shenzhen and Guangzhou Metro Metro Metro Code Interchange Project was launched. Through the Shenzhen Metro and the Guangzhou Metro APP, the interconnection application of rail transit codes of the two places can be achieved. The coordinated development of the Hong Kong and Macao Greater Bay Area and the interconnection of regional rail transit play a positive role. This year, the QR code of the subway in Chengdu, Zhengzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing, Hohhot, and Tianjin has also achieved interconnection, which greatly facilitates citizens to travel across the city by subway. "In terms of service scope, the AFC system has gradually integrated from localized services to regional transportation and developed in the country." Zhou Shishuang said that "Technical Specifications" put forward "one -yard pass" and other travel services such as cross -cities and cross -formulas. Service requirements. In addition to the "one -code pass" of urban rail transit cross -regional, "Technical Specifications" also encourages urban rail transit two -dimensional code tickets, one card cards and other ride vouchers, and interact with the local city (suburban) railway, intercity railway, etc. Compatible with payment, realize "one -vote" and "joint discount". "Passengers holding Yangcheng Tong traffic cards, please go to the red gate to swipe the card to enter the station. Passengers who buy tickets through the" Railway 12306 'or the tickets to buy tickets at the window. Please check the ticket from the blue gate. " The inter -railway Huadu Station, Guangzhou Public Transport and "Railway 12306" two sets of ticketing systems are parallel. Passengers can conduct real -name authentication through the Guangzhou Metro App or Yangcheng Tong Bus Card. One ticket is connected. " Jingyan believes that the requirements of the "Technical Specifications" put forward the requirements of the interconnection of subways and urban (suburbs) and intercity railways, which will greatly enhance the transfer experience of passengers' different transportation methods. At present, the cross -city subway ride code is connected to interconnection, but in terms of "one -vote pass" with the intercity railway, "realizing the real -name system to realize the interoperability of subway and railway ride is the development trend for development. "Jingyan said. Li Yu said that interconnection is not only reflected in the interoperability of AFC systems between cities. The "Technical Specifications" also mentioned that the AFC system should form interconnection and interconnection with other systems such as the fire alarm system, communication clock system, and comprehensive monitoring system, which is better Support the overall operation and command scheduling of the rail transit. "Many systems in the field of rail transit do not directly interact with passengers, and the AFC system is directly facing passengers. Paying attention to passengers' needs and travel efficiency is the basic principle of building the AFC system." Li Yu said. The staff of Wuhan Metro Hankou Railway Station assisted passengers to open a third -party APP scanning code and ride. In addition to providing the functional efficiency of the AFC system, the special journalist's production enlightenment "Technical Specifications" also pointed out that each automatic ticket machine group of the station should have at least one ticket veting equipment with cash payment functions normally; in terms of ticket inspection, It is pointed out that each automatic ticket inspection machine group should set up at least one two -way wide channel automatic ticket machine. Li Yu believes that while ensuring the basic travel needs of passengers, the "Technical Specifications" also reflects the attention and guarantee of special passengers such as the elderly, the disabled, and the passengers with luggage. How to protect online ticketing multiple development of personal privacy information? In 2018, Beijing, Xi'an, Shenzhen and other urban rail transits successively opened the era of "scanning" ride; in 2019, Jinan, Guiyang, Guangzhou and other places have entered the era of "brushing face". With the diversified development of Internet tickets, the method of buying tickets has gradually shifted from offline to online. "Online payment methods such as mobile phone NFC and QR code ease the problems such as queuing ticket purchase, difficulty in change, and tickets for ticket money, and also reduce the operating costs of manpower and equipment." Zhou Shihuang believes that diversified payment methods coexist also leads to coexistence, which also leads to the coexistence of the coexistence of the coexistence of the payment method, which also leads to the coexistence of the coexistence of the coexistence, which also leads to the coexistence of the coexistence of the coexistence of the payment method, which has also led to the coexistence of the coexistence of the payment method. The AFC system is facing problems such as many types of equipment and facilities, poor compatibility of dedicated modules and equipment. The "Technical Specifications" put forward uniform requirements for the technical performance, network reliability, and system function of the Internet ticketing platform. "Previously, the AFC system was a relatively closed system. With the emergence of Internet tickets, the AFC system needs to interoperate with other systems to ensure its security.

"Li Yu said that for the AFC system itself, the risk of network attacks has increased; for passengers, because of registering and opening business, identity information and face information need to be provided to ensure the security of passengers' personal information; For subway operators, for the unique businesses unique to Internet tickets such as "driving first after car", risks must also be controlled to ensure that the income of operators is not lost. In terms of Internet ticketing operations, the "Technical Specifications" clearly proposed that the Internet, the Internet, the Internet. The ticketing platform should ensure the collection and use of the personal information of passengers that meet the relevant provisions of the national network security and personal information protection. At the same time, it should support the monitoring of user arrears, and the corresponding code warning, the prohibition of the codes, generating and sending a blacklist should be adopted accordingly. Waiting for disposal measures. Jingyan said that the current method of facial recognition and other stations is gradually being applied. The risk of data is used. For the protection of personal privacy data, all places are still in the exploration stage. The relevant provisions of security are in line with the current needs facing the current technological development. "Internet tickets also have higher requirements for network services and quality, but the facility design in most subway stations is still based on the offline IC card service model. Flow appears, and the subway station may be difficult to meet the service better. "Zhang Li believes that while promoting the use of new technologies, the network technology and supporting artificial services in the subway station should be improved simultaneously to ensure that passengers enter the station smoothly.
