Applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EC Directive(s).
For relationship with EC Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
This series of European Standards “Railway applications — Classification system for rail vehicles" consists of
the following parts:
 Part 1: General
 Part 2: Product groups
 Part 3: Designation of train-set positions and installation sites
 Part 4: Function groups

Introduction
The functional breakdown structure is used by all parties involved in the rolling stock product definition phase
and the following processes to structure the functional requirements and use cases according to a standardized
list of functions. It starts with the concept and spreads across the whole product life cycle. During this period the
level of detail of the structure could be adapted according to the project progress. This means that functions in
a product concept catalogue mainly are described by requirements. The transfer into implementable hard- and
software takes place later.
The product breakdown structure according to EN 15380-2 of this standard series and the functional
breakdown structure according to part 4 of this standard are not in contradiction to each other but they
complement each other. While the PBS, consisting of the standardized list of subsystems and devices, is used
for structuring system requirements and related use cases the FBS standard describes the functions of a
vehicle and is used to get a correlation between functional requirement and the structure of functions even as
for the related use cases. These structures describe different views on the rolling stock product. The
importance of the two structures may be different according to the users’ tasks as well the project stage (see
also EN 15380-1, Annex C).
The FBS can also be for specifying tasks as well as for analysing tasks.
The functional assessment especially affects the field of RAMS / LCC (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability,
Safety / Life-Cycle Costs). Often during the project process values have to be given at a stage when insufficient
information regarding the technical solution is available. At this stage EN 15380-2 is not applicable.
In all cases in which functionality is a key issue (e.g. safety and reliability analyses, inspections and testing,
maintenance programmes, field data acquisition and related documentation) communication is based on a
functional vehicle structure composed of functional groups – particularly when cross-system or interdisciplinary
considerations are important.
Functions are grouped into levels regardless of their vehicle specific technical realization. In designating the
functions, attention was paid to respect the general considerations to express the functions themselves and not
to designate the function carrier. This is coherent with EN 61346.
This applies similarly when the functional vehicle breakdown structure is met in tracing vehicle properties for
example during validation phase. A lot of required properties fixed in the product concept catalogue are
realized, diagnosed and rated as functioning or malfunctioning during operation. Only afterwards the link is
made to the physical structure and respectively to the assessment of the function of technical solutions.
There is not necessarily an unequivocal relationship between function and its technical realization. A unit of
observation can be a function carrier for different functions at the same time or in sequence. This means that a
entity can be related to different functions and even from different levels (see Annex A).
Assignment of examples for well known function carriers are given for easier understanding.

1 Scope
This standard forms the basis for the generation and interpretation of railway specific functional structures
during the life cycle of a railway vehicle or its assemblies. This standard also is applicable to specific vehicles
like track machines snow ploughs etc. The specific functions of their specific work process are not included in
describing this standard; they have to be added for the individual project.
EN 15380-4 also covers the requirements of the TSIs (Technical Specifications for Interoperability of Rolling
stock) described in chapter 2.1 and the requirements of TR 50126-3 and completes these documents.

3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
function
specific purpose or objective to be accomplished, that can be specified or described without reference to the
physical means of achieving it (IEC 61226:2005)
NOTE A function transfers (considered as a black-box) input parameters (material, energy, information) into aim
related output parameters (material, energy, information).
3.2
transverse function
destined for the use together with several level 2 and level 3 functions of the FBS at the same time
NOTE The transverse functions are not part of the FBS but are implicit for example ”provide diagnosis” or
“communicate with train bus”
5
prEN 15380-4:2009 (E)
3.3
Functional Breakdown Structure (FBS)
hierarchical structure summarizing a set of functions leading to the same general focus or service
NOTE To define the level of a function within a FBS see Clause 5.
3.4

NOTE Assignment to the appropriate level is described in the rules.
3.4.1
st
1 level function
functional domain that encompasses a set of functions related to a same general focus or service for the
considered (rolling stock) system
st
NOTE Example for a 1 level function is:

NOTE 2 At this level, it is not said how a 2 level function is to be implemented.
nd
NOTE 3 A specific 2 level function often is related to an engineering discipline and might be supported by one or a
minimum number of subsystems.
NOTE 4 Each function at level 2 or level 3 has one or several transverse functions as sub-functions.
3.4.3
rd
3 level function
related to a specific activity within the related set of interconnected activities, it encompasses a set of tasks
NOTE 1 A function at least at level 3 should be supported as much as possible by one single subsystem.
rd

6
prEN 15380-4:2009 (E)
3.5
requirement
necessary condition or ability to constrain the solutions of a task or an aim
NOTE 1 A requirement describes for example, performance characteristics, operational conditions and quality attributes,
expressed as measurable and testable technical parameters or indicators.
NOTE 2 Requirements are usually summarized in a specification.
NOTE 3 Beside requirements allocated to functions are additional requirements allocated to other features (e.g. design,
manufacturing).
3.5.1
functional requirement
expresses the requirements on a certain functionality
NOTE 1 Functional requirements and use cases come from passenger / pay load and operator request than from
integrator and supplier. They are expressing the requirements on a certain functionality given in the FBS regarding
interoperability (with other functions), operation, function/ behaviour, or functional architecture/design constraints.
The functional designation usually is additionally stated more precisely by detail properties (see also Annex D)
that provide more information referring to reliability, availability, performance, quality, documentation, input,
output, realtime.
These higher-level functional goals pointed out for ambient conditions, design features and selected target
groups / target objects are “requirements to a function”.
NOTE 2 In the FRS associated to a function at level 2 or 3 the requirements met by the transverse functions are listed
for each transverse function.
3.5.2
system requirement
requirement on a subsystem or device
NOTE Requirement on a subsystem or device regarding the requested technical compatibility, reliability, availability,
maintainability, environmental impact/conditions (recyclables, emissions, EMC, climate, vibration), LCC, performance,
quality, documentation, realtime behaviour, physical limits (dimension, weight), electrical interface (plugs, voltage, physical
layer), or mechanical interface (fixing points, fixing method).
3.6
scenario
possible transient, unsteady or steady states of the regarded system or of system-user interaction including
environmental or other influences
3.7
use case
describes what a system does from the view of an exterior observer
NOTE A use case is a summary of scenarios for a single task or goal.
3.8
object
component, element, device, subsystem, functional unit, operating medium or system that can be observed in
its own right
[EN 13460, EN 13580-2]
3.9
error
deviation from the intended design which could result in unintended system behaviour or failure
7
prEN 15380-4:2009 (E)
[EN 50129]
NOTE An error needs corrective action, is caused by defect component and can be displayed to the driver or
workshop. An error can lead to a failure
3.10
fault
an abnormal condition which could lead to an error in the system. A fault can be random or systematic
[EN 50129]
3.11
failure
deviation from specified performance of a system. A failure is the consequence of a fault or error in the system
[EN 50129]
3.12
event
occurrence of a state at a defined precondition and time
3.13
monitoring
independent real-time observation of system, consist and train states (in cases also based on combinatory
logic) for manual or automatic action
NOTE Often safety related, partly mission critical.
3.14

5.1 General remarks
The hierarchy of the functional groups serves as a guideline when creating functional structures. Functions are
realized at the technical level as hardware and software within hierarchically structured units. Although the units
interact at the functional level, they may be spatially separate from one another.
Expanding the functions, elementary functions and characteristic features is possible within the scope of this
standard. Whether it is necessary to make use of this option will depend on the specific application being
considered.
Changes of the existing functional levels shall be avoided.
Functional units can be associated with several functions. A single function can be distributed over several
functional units.
5.2 Indication systematic
Functions are designated using letters of the alphabet only, as set out in Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3. The use
of the letters I and O, as well as special characters and separators, is not permitted.
st
The 1 -level functions, functions on lower levels and transverse functions are coded in their respective levels
using a single letter. The transverse functions are arranged in the order they are listed in Table 3. A block of n
transverse functions is started and closed by a dot. Elementary functions are two-letter coded. The detail
properties are three letters coded and will be arranged in the order they are listed in Annex D. The detail
properties are separated each other by dots.
The indication systematic can be used either in whole or in part. As a minimum it is recommended to use it from
level 1 to level 5 without the following indication blocks as defined in Annex C and Annex D.

5.4 Transverse functions
Transverse functions affect most of the level 2 and level 3 functions of the FBS at the same time. So they will
not be inserted in the FBS as subfunctions of the functions; they are not part of the FBS. The requirements
related to these transverse functions for a given function will have an attribute stating the relationship.
In a FRS dedicated paragraphs for these transverse functions describing the requirements associated to them
should be integral part of it.
The standardized transverse functions are listed in Table 3.

Interrelation between EN 15380-2 and EN 15380-4
Figure B.1 is a schematic representation that shows how functional structure and product structure relate to
one another and indicates the interaction between the functional-structure perspective specified in EN 15380-4
and the product-structure view in EN 15380-2.
Generally, the specifications for establishing EN 15380-4-compliant structures are summarised in a

requirements document that sets out the required functionality of the specified system and details the permitted
consequences if the functional requirements are not met.
Using this approach, the functional structure of a vehicle can be created without having to specify its technical
realisation in any detail. The resulting structure can then be used, for instance, to conduct initial (functionally
related) reliability and safety analyses.
As the design phase proceeds, the specified functions are assigned to definite components.
It should be noted that several functions can be assigned to a single component and that a single function can
be realised by several different components. It is therefore particularly important that all relevant
interrelationships are taken into account if the perspective from which the system is viewed (functional aspect
or product aspect) is changed.
It should also be noted that field data for RAMS / LCC analyses are always assigned to the component
structure (in the form of a quality parameter such as a failure rate). If certain data need to be assigned to the
functional structure as part of a quantitative functional analysis, it is important to realise that the sum of the
quantitative data is not necessarily equal to the corresponding value for the overall system (as one component
can perform several functions and vice versa). For example, the sum of the life-cycle costs of the individual
functions (systems) will not normally equal the life-cycle cost of the overall function (i.e. the vehicle).
As the structuring set out in this standard allows properties to be assigned to functions, appropriate coding
allows users to carry out very specific analyses (e.g. thermal load analyses, analyses in terms of specific
passenger groups, etc.).

Elementary functions
Code letters used to designate elementary functions
The applicable elementary functions are listed in Table C.1 and correspond to those in EN 61346-2.
Supplementary terms have been introduced wherever the functions in EN 61346-2 were too general. Table 4
below shows the relationship between the code letters in Table 1 of EN 61346-2 and the relevant ‘Examples of
terms describing purpose or task of objects and functions’ that are listed in column 3 of Table C.1.Each term
has been allocated a code letter that is listed in Table C.1 in the column headed ‘Code letter according to EN
15380-4. Any extension or supplement to EN 61346-2 is marked as such in column 4 of Table C.1 by an
asterisk. Functional units that serve as examples of the relevant elementary functions can be found in
EN 61346-2 and have not been transferred into this standard.

Code letters used to designate detail properties
D.1 General
The achievement of certain functions often depends on properties (demands) the function carrier has to meet.
That’s the motivation to predefine a list of properties that shall be used before redefining or adding other
properties or attributes.
The arrangement of detail properties has to follow the intention to define the functions from abstract level to
detailed level. Also the definition of functional requirements has to start with more common specifications and
has to be made more precisely aiming for detailed specifications.
The following arrangement shows 5 classes of detail properties; further detailed classification of detail
properties is shown in Table 1; the detail classifications could be used as support for structuring and analysing
tasks. It is shown beyond how the properties listed in Table D.2 could be arranged to the proposed classes of
detail properties; the classifications are listed as follows:
1. Relevance for superordinated (higher level) functional goals (based on customers/ operators -/ or interoper-
abilty requests or other design features);
2. Tolerance against ambient conditions, influences and interferences from operating and surroundings (What
is influencing the function carrier;
3. Relevance to target group /target object /interaction (is the function relevant fort he target group because of
special demands);
4. Impact characteristics of the function associated mechanism with regard to the function carrier
(classification of impact characteristics);
5. Characteristics for the physical construction/design features/ interfaces.
NOTE The two classifications mentioned before are used for detailing the properties of the function carriers within the
development process. Functions are described more precisely by using detail properties and attributes in general; these
properties are related to functional goals e.g. superior goals like design. As the example below shows the same attribute
can be used for different classes / aspects of describing detail properties:
D.2 Indication systematic

st
The 1 -level functions, functions on lower levels and transverse functions are arranged and coded in their
respective levels according to Chapter 5. The indication and coding of the detail properties and attributes
follow the details according to Table D.1 and Table D.2 and will be arranged in the order they are listed in
these tables. The attributes are separated each by a dot.

Example for a complete structure of function groups
Table E.1 below shows the functional structure of the main functional group F with the sub-function ‘Provide electrical energy for traction’. The initial focus is
on the main functions for transferring power between the contact wire or rail and the vehicle without specifying the detailed technical realisation of the
functional unit.
Functions, transverse functions, elementary functions detail properties and attributes are entered in the sequence given in 5.3 and Annex A, Annex C and
Annex D. It is important that this sequence is observed if incorrect machine processing and machine evaluation of data fields is to be avoided. In contrast,
attribute designators can be specified in any order within the corresponding column, though if the information is to be machine processed the attribute code
letters shall be separated on additional lines. Table E.1 shows the general procedure to specify a function down to the attributes and the transition to the
function carrier, listed in EN 15380-2. This example is not exhaustive.
The ‘Product structure EN 15380-2’ column is included to make clear the interrelationships shown schematically in Figure B.1.

Annex F
(normative)
Rules to define the function level
Each function shall be considered regarding its generality. The most general functions are located at level 1.
At this level, at least on level 2 the main functions as listed in the TSI rolling stock shall be covered. However it
is not necessary that the correspondence between the two sets of functions is “one to one”
These functions may be split into sub-functions, which may be further split into sub-functions of the next lower
level.
To determine which level a function has to be assigned, in order to meet the adequate level within the function
hierarchy, the following rules apply:
Rule 1:
At level 1 the focus of the functional domain shall be the intended functional purpose, not the means of
realization.
NOTE Several verbs and object complements may be used in the description of such a functional area.
Rule 2:
Specification of a first level function is called Main Rolling Stock Requirement Specification.
NOTE A second level function can be specified by a Functional Requirement Specification.
The preferred level for definition of a FRS document is level 2 but there could be FRS for level 3 functions.
Rule 3:
If an application of a function on level 2 or level 3 is not influenced by the target group of the function then
there is no criterion to extend the number of functions.
Rule 4:
Within a given FBS level, functions shall not overlap.
Rule 5:
The functions shall be defined in order to reduce the interfaces between themselves particularly at level 2 and
level 3.
Rule 6:
A function shall be defined independently from the architecture.
Rule 7:
A function is not a requirement.
NOTE Example for the difference between a function and a requirement: A function is: to accelerate the train, a
2
requirement is: accelerate at 1,5 m/s .
Rule 8:
Each function shall be fully defined by its sub-functions.
Rule 9:
There shall be no space holder functions at level 2 and level 3. Each function shall have more than one sub-
function (otherwise the sub-function is the function on the level above).
64
prEN 15380-4:2009 (E)
Annex G
(informative)
Rules to create function names
G.1 General
To ensure an unambiguous definition of each function it is necessary to define rules for creating the function
terms and their abbreviation. These processes are realized in English language only independent from the
mother tongue of this standard’s user.
G.2 Function terms

For creation of function terms the following rules apply:
Rule 1:
Each function shall consist of at least one verb in its verbal form and an object complement.
Rule 2:
The verb is defined in a dictionary. Preferred verbs are: to provide, to enable, to ensure, to command, to
access.
Rule 3:
The function name shall start with the verb.
Rule 4:
Negative definition shall be avoided.
Rule 5:
The function name shall be unambiguous.
Rule 6:
Function names shall have an unambiguous abbreviation unless it is unavoidable.
EXAMPLE 1: communication -> com
EXAMPLE 2: command -> cmd
G.3 Rules for creating function short names

To ensure a unique and unambiguous identification of each function term, metadata identifiers were created.
The rules basically follow the general rules as defined in IEC 82045-2:2004-12 mod clause 4.4.1 and 4.4.2
which are:
The identifier of the metadata element is a string of characters, based on the English language. The identifier
shall be unambiguous in the document management context.
T he id e nt ifier is composed of one or more terms, each starting with an upper case letter, followed by lowe
r-case letters. Characters are limited to upper case and lower-case Latin letters (A . Z, a . z). The differ
ent te rm s are c o nc a te n at e d wi t ho ut a n y i nt erm ed i at e character.
65
prEN 15380-4:2009 (E)
The information model provides entities with associated attributes. In order to reflect the different context-
dependent semantics , t he metadata identifier is in most cases composed of the entity name followed by the
relevant attribute name, concatenated without any intermediate character. Each term starts with an upper-ca
s e l et te r.
Based on these general rules the following detailed conventions apply:
Rule 1:
If there are common international abbreviations (speed: v, electric: el, acceleration: a, force: f, passenger: pax,
transmit: tx, …) these shall be used . The series of ISO 31 shall apply.
Rule 2:
Binding words like and, or, with, ... shall be suppressed.
Rule 3:
For terms consisting of different words each individual word will be treated according the defined rules.
Rule 4:
For the same word always the same abbreviation shall be used even if it is used in different meanings.
Whenever possible different terms shall be used for different meanings instead.
Rule 5:
Words not covered by rule 1 and having less than 6 letters shall not be abbreviated.
EXAMPLE Light -> Light
Rule 6:
Each function shall be abbreviated by the first letter and the following 2 consonants of each word. The words
are concatenated using capital letter.
EXAMPLE Ensure -> Ens, communication -> com, command >cmd
Rule 7:
If there is no unique or clear identification possible with rule 6 also the 3rd consonant shall be used.
EXAMPLE Provide -> Prvd, Inside -> Insd, Supply -> Sply, Access -> Accs, Accelerate -> Accl, Accumulate -> Accm
Rule 8:
If there is no unique or clear identification possible with rule 7 additionally the first different consonant of the
word shall be used.
EXAMPLE Presence-> Prsnc (Person->Prsn), Acoustic -> Acstc (acustom -> acstm), Protect -> Prtct (protocol ->
prtcl).
Rule 9:
If there is no unique or clear identification possible with rule 7 or rule 8 additionally to rule 6 the first 1 or two
vowels /additionally to rule 7 the first vowel of the word shall be used.
