Abstract

There are the high-speed train of two types in Korea, KTX and KHST(Korean High Speed Train). The characteristics of interior noise appear differently because the car bodies of the trains are designed with the different materials. In this study, we measure the interior noise for KTX and KHST. The experimental results show that the interior noise of KTX is equal to KHST in open territory and tunnel and interior noise in tunnel with concreted track increase about $3{\sim}4dB(A)$ compared to tunnel with ballasted track. We also know that interior noise level of KHST is higher then KTX in range of high frequency (above 630Hz).
