It is of practical value and significance to study the influencing factors of the headway capability of moving block system. This paper mainly analyzes the factors affecting the train headway capability in urban rail transit from two aspects: safety braking model and dwell time. The balanced transport capacity of the whole line is realized with reasonable optimization of train speed limit, GEBR value and dwell time value. At the same time, it also puts forward the optimization of the above influence factor values, the need to consider the balance of train, passenger volume, operation, platform door and other professional, and retain a certain margin to meet the safety-related requirements.
