Global Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) is an advanced signaling and control system used in modern railway transportation systems. It relies on wireless communication between trains and a central control center to provide real-time train movement information and optimize train operations. CBTC replaces traditional fixed-block signaling systems with a continuous flow of data, allowing trains to operate with reduced headways and higher capacity on the same track. The system includes onboard train control units, trackside radio equipment, and a centralized control center, ensuring precise train positioning, automated train protection, and improved safety. CBTC enables more efficient and flexible train scheduling, reduces the risk of collisions, and enhances the overall performance and reliability of railway networks. As a result, it has become increasingly adopted in urban metro systems and other high-capacity rail networks worldwide.
