The Study on Analysis of Absolute Train Positioning System for Maglev System

자기부상철도의 절대위치검지시스템 구조 분석 연구

In the maglev system, accurate train position is essential for safe and efficient train operation. Train positioning systems in the maglev systems are different from conventional railway system because railway train has no wheels. And various train positioning principles and systems have been used in maglev systems. In this paper, we study several positioning principles and systems on adapting existing various maglev systems and analyze functional structure of absolute positioning system in ultra high speed maglev system. Then we propose development scheme on absolute positioning system for developing ultra high speed maglev system.
