This document specifies the reference architecture for a hyperloop system. It specifies the functions of each (sub)system classifying them in different functional blocks, their different possible implementations, and highlights the interactions between them.
The interfaces of the transportation system based on interactions are listed, whether it be internal interfaces or exterior interfaces. The characterization considers the technical as well as operational features of the transport service.

Hyperloop transport services are designed to support passenger transport and cargo transport. For each of the transport service user/customer requirements and expectations are different.
This document defines the hyperloop transport services supported by a hyperloop system and provides means for characterization and description of these services. The characterization considers the technical as well as operational / commercial features of each transport service.

Frequently Asked Questions

CEN/CLC/JTC 20 is a Technical Committee within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Hyperloop systems" and is responsible for: Standardization of all systems, products, services and applications related to the Hyperloop transport system This committee has published 5 standards.

CEN/CLC/JTC 20 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. The scope of work includes: Standardization of all systems, products, services and applications related to the Hyperloop transport system Currently, there are 5 published standards from this technical committee.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.

A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
