최근의 무선통신 시스템은 유지, 보수 및 구축이 유선통신 시스템에 비해 용이하고 이동성을 제공할 수 있다는 장점에 의해, 열차, 차량, 미사일 등의 이동체 제어와 관련된 분야에서의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 열차 또는 차량 제어와 같이 안전성이 중요시되는 분야에 있어서 전파에 의한 무선 링크는 가장 문제가 되는 부분으로서, 일반적으로 통신시스템은 어느 한 경로에서 고장이 발생하더라도 설계시 정해진 일정수준의 기능을 제공하는 생존성(survivability)을 지니도록 설계되어진다. 이와 관련한 연구와 개발은 대부분 공중 전화망과 고속 데이터 통신망을 대상으로 수행되었다. 본 논문에서는 유럽의 차세대 열차제어시스템에 적용하기 위해 기존의 유럽 표준 이동통신 시스템인 GSM(Global System for Mobile Communications)을 철도분야의 특수성에 맞도록 보완한 GSM-R(GSM-Railway)을 사례로 무선통신 시스템의 생존성을 검토한다.

High-speed trains have been developed widely in many countries in order to transport a large quantity of people and commodities rapidly. When a high speed train enters a tunnel, aerodynamic resistance is generated suddenly. This resistance causes micro pressure wave and discomfort to passengers. Therefore, it is essential to incorporate a pressure relief system in a tunnel and streamlined shape of a train in order to reduce aerodynamic resistance caused by a high-speed train. Additionally, the cross-sectional area of a tunnel should be carefully determined to reduce discomfort of passengers. A pressure relief duct and a vertical shaft are representative measures in a tunnel. This study represents the effect of pressure relief ducts in order to alleviate pressure changes within a time period in a tunnel. One-dimensional network numerical simulations were carried out in order to estimate the effect of pressure relief systems.

High-speed trains have been developed widely in European countries and Japan in order to transport large quantity of people and commodities in short time. Additionally, a high speed train is one of the most desirable and environmentally friendly transportation methods. When a high speed train enters a tunnel, aerodynamic resistance is generated suddenly. This resistance causes micro pressure wave and discomfort to passengers. Due to this aerodynamic pressure against the train, a large amount of traction is required for the operation of a train in a tunnel. Therefore, it is essential to incorporate a pressure relief system in a tunnel in order to reduce aerodynamic resistance caused by a high-speed train. A pressure relief duct and a vertical shaft are representative measures in a tunnel. This study represents the effect of pressure relief ducts in order to alleviate positive and negative normal pressures acting on a train. One-dimensional numerical simulations were carried out in order to estimate the effect of pressure relief systems.

Studied was a strategy of technology development for railway system in terms of railway network. First, The successful launch of the Korean HST system has not only decreased logistics burden but also significantly transformed the Korean trunk-line railway network, revolutionizing the logistics and technology sectors and reinvigorating the Korean railway industry in one century. Korean railway industry sector is now investing to develop many different types of railway system(G7, Post G7, tilting train...) so that these kinds of various railway system development should be integrated with the National Inter-modal Transportation Network Plan. To secure sufficient capacity that is required by the National Railroad Plan, the railway industry needs to establish mid- and long-term train purchase and operation strategies in compliance with railway construction and operation policies. During a railway construction planning, train operators, based on their train operation strategies, should come up with measures to closely cooperate with project operators from the planning stage through to the opening of a railway system. To be more precise, train operators should establish long-term train procurement plans reflecting both long-term national railroad network plans and plans for each railway line in order to suggest appropriate roles and schedules for each line. Also, based on the long-term railway plan, directions should be decided concerning the research and development of trains in advance.

In this paper through Honam high-speed railroad which is planned with the north and south axis, we will verify the feasibility of the coordinate conversion using railroad control points after regarding current planned-railroad as the linear central axises. From analysis, distortion of Y axis varies 21cm to 40cm diminishing to a gentle straight line, distortion of X axis varies 14cm to 29cm. Through a revision, the deviation value between the coordinates were 6mm to 9mm and it satisfied the allowable error of national geographic information institute which is following ITRF (International Terrestrial Reference Frame) and cadastral boundary survey(10cm). consequently the coordinate conversion is possible using railroad control points as common control points.

The purpose of this study is to predict changing traffic environments and related economic effects by reflecting the changed KTDB and socio-economic indicators pertaining to Mulgeum station, a general railway stop, when it is confirmed as a KTX stop. To analyze the data of this study, socioeconomic indicators and the general status of transportation facility operations were investigated with reference to related statistical data, centered on the country overall and on Yangsan city in particular. In addition, we investigated and referenced the railroad facility construction plan and train operation plan, which are national high-level plans related to land development and transportation network construction. Currently, there are only ITX trains (4 times/day) and Mugunghwa trains (29 times/day) that stop at Mulgeum station in Yangsan, meaning that passengers cannot use KTX trains in the Yangsan area. In particular, the need for a KTX stop at Mulgeum station has been continuously raised because train users in the Yangsan area have inconvenient transportation in that they must travel 40 minutes to Ulsan station or 30 minutes to Gupo station to use the KTX. As a result of analyzing railroad transportation demand that will change in the future as the KTX stop at Mulgeum station is confirmed, the number of passengers boarding and arriving at Mulgeum station is predicted to be 1,674 passengers/day by 2025. In addition, the numbers of train passengers that are converted from Ulsan and Gupo stations due to the stop at Mulgeum station are predicted to be 594 passengers/day boarding and 562 passengers/day arriving by 2025. In the future, if Yangsan citizens use the KTX Mulgeum station, the access time to Mulgeum station can be shortened to 22 minutes from 65 minutes, and it is predicted that the inconvenience of transferring between railroads will be resolved, with the waiting time for transfers reduced by up to a maximum of 40 minutes. Therefore, the economic effect of creating a KTX stop at Mulgeum station was analyzed to be B/C=1.823 when general railroad operating costs are not taken into account and B/C=2.127 when general railroad operating costs are considered. In conclusion, when using KTX trains to visit the Seoul Metropolitan Area, it takes 2 hours and 43 minutes to use Mulgeum station without using Ulsan station or Gupo station, which is considered to be very effective for reducing travel times and improving the economic feasibility of this development; it is also expected that Yangsan city will be able to improve accessibility and mobility to the Seoul Metropolitan Area by breaking free from the disgrace of being a remote location given its link to KTX in the future.

As the existing metropolitan area metropolitan railway operates on a one-to-one basis, which leads to long travel times, its competitiveness with other means of transportation is deteriorating. Since there is a limit to attracting road traffic by rail, there is a continuing societal demand to expand express train service. Especially in the northern and the southwestern parts of the metropolitan area, a public transportation network system with express function, connecting to the city center of Seoul, is needed because of the social cost of the increase of traffic congestion and the increase of the travel time. The most efficient express service in Korea is Seoul Subway Line 9, which runs in 27 minutes from Gimpo Airport to the high speed terminal; this is a 40% shorter time compared to 44 minutes by car; the congestion in this area is up to 240%, so the preference for this train is quite high. The technical results of this study are expected to contribute to the implementation of an express service metropolitan railway.

After the commercial opening of the KTX in 2005, the high speed railroad has been rapidly emerged as the major transportation means due to its high energy efficiency. Recently, the government has announced its plan to build the future transportation system around the high speed railroad. Based on this policy, the existing lines as well as the lines under construction or design are planning to increase design speed. In this paper, the suitability of the mid-span PSC girder bridges for the high speed railroad is evaluated via dynamic analysis. IT, Precom, and WPC girder bridges are considered for the purpose of this study and, for comparison, the identical modeling method and the analysis technique are utilized. The performance indices used for dynamic performance evaluation are the natural frequency, the vertical displacement, the end axial displacement, track irregularity, etc. The KTX train is utilized as a dynamic load, and the dynamic analysis is performed up to the train speed of 420km/hr with the increment of 10km/hr.
