DIN SPEC 91516:2025-07

This document defines terms, metrics, measurement methods and sample measurements related to the performance of a train driver or driver for driverless train operation. Previously relevant regulations are summarised. The functions of the train driver or driver to be replaced are listed. Metrics for measuring performance for each of the mentioned functions are described. Previous sample measurements for the performance of a train driver and driver are provided. This document does not provide specific information on non-moving activities such as coupling. This document does not specify any requirements for safety and health protection, such as the detection of persons in a danger zone. This also applies to so-called assistance systems. This document is not suitable for the application of general automated systems. This document is not applicable to means of transport other than those in accordance with EBO and BOStrab. This document does not include the determination of performance values for the commissioning authorization of driverless train operation. This document can be used as a guide by developers of perception and control systems for driverless train operation. This DIN SPEC has been developed according to the PAS procedure. The development of a DIN SPEC according to the PAS procedure is carried out in DIN-SPEC-consortiums and does not require the participation of all stakeholders.
