The Train Protection & Warning System (TPWS) is a train protection system used throughout the British passenger main-line railway network, and in Victoria, Australia. [1]

列车保护和警告系统 ( 英語： TPWS ) 是一种在英国客运 干线铁路网络 以及澳大利亚 维多利亚州 使用的列车保护系统。 [1] 英国铁路安全和标准委员会对TPWS的定义是： [2] 接近挡车器太快。 TPWS的设计目的不是防止冒进信号（SPAD） ，而是避免列车通过危险信号后继续行驶至碰撞点，减轻冒进信号的后果。 此系统的标准配置包括一个安装在轨道上并与信号灯相邻的无线电发射器，当信号灯处于危险状态时激活，通过该信号的列车将启动紧急制动。 高速行驶的列车在冒 …

TPWS is not designed to prevent SPADs but to mitigate against the consequences of a SPAD, by preventing a train that has had a SPAD from reaching a conflict point ahead of the signal.

The TPWS project demonstrated that it is possible to deliver an affordable product implementation developed using the now almost universally recognised safety proving processes applied in an appropriate way. This enabled cost-effective yet robust development and proving and demonstrated that

This document mandates the requirements for the Train Protection and Warning System (TPWS), the primary purpose of which is to minimise the consequences of a train passing a TPWS fitted signal at danger and a train overspeeding at certain …

The purpose of this standard is to provide the minimum requirements for use of the Train Protection Warning System (TPWS) on the ARTC rail network. The Designer may need to exceed these minimum requirements to achieve the SFAIRP design. This standard covers the Train Protection Warning System that is type approved for use on the ARTC rail network.

Ansaldo STS has implemented ERTMS applications in India in two pilot projects: TPWS South: 52 km,150 signals, 84 coaches TPWS North: 192 km, 580 signals, 35 coaches. Figure 4 (below) shows the system architecture for TPWS in India.
