Mitsubishi Electric Corporation has filled an order by Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd for radio equipment to be used in Japan’s first communication-based train control system (CBTC) for metro. The delivery includes wayside radio equipment for a branch of Tokyo Metro’s Marunouchi Line between Nakano-sakaue and Honancho stations and on-board radio equipment for a train that will be operated on the line for verification purposes.
Tokyo Metro will evaluate and verify the equipment through trial operations. Mitsubishi Electric will assist Tokyo Metro in the verification tests, aiming at full commercial deployment on the entire Marunouchi Line by the end of fiscal year 2023.
