Recently, the demands for the satellite broadband mobile communication services are increased. To provide these services, mobile satellite communication systems for the passengers or crews on the high-speed moving vehicles, are being developed for the last several years especially in the Europe and North America. However, most of these systems can provide only several hundred kbps of transmission rate and this is not enough performance to provide satellite internet service for the group users such as passengers on the high-speed train. Moreover, service availability with these systems is limited to be rather low because they don't have any countermeasure scheme for the N-LOS environment which happens often along the railway. This paper describes mobile broadband satellite communication system, which is on the development, to provide high data-rate internet services to the high-speed trains. This system is applied with the inter-networking scenarios of both satellite/terrestrial network and satellite/gap-filler network so that it can provide seamless service even in the train operating environment, and these inter-networking schemes result in high service availability. And this system also has the countermeasure schemes, such as upper layer FEC and antenna diversity, for the short fading which is occurred periodically on the railway due to the power supplying structures so that it can provide high speed internet services. Mobile DVB-S2 technology which is now being standardized in the DVB is used for the forward-link transmission and DVB-RCS for the return-link.

한국형 고속전철을 고려하는데 있어서 위에서의 기술적인 측면보다도 오히려 수송용량, 경제성, 운영방식의 측면에서 더 많은 비중을 두고 검토해야 하는지도 모른다. 그러한 측면에서 한국형 고속전철은 한국의 지형조건, 경부간의 연변인구, 현경부선의 장래, 고속전철의 운영방식, 한국철도의 기술수준 등을 고려하지 않으면 안되고 한국형이어야 한다. 한국형 고속전철은 1. 경부간 고속전철의 거리는 380Km정도이므로 2000년대의 국민 일인당 시간가치를 기준으로 최고속도를 결정하여야 하고 표정속도는 190Km/h이상이어야 한다. 2. 고속화를 위한 필수조건인 차량의 축중을 17톤 이하로 제한하여야 하고 기존의 철도차량이 고속전철선에 야간열차등으로 투입되더라도 이 원칙은 유지되어야 한다. 3. 수송능력을 확보하기 위하여 열차편성당 좌석수는 800석 이하로 확보되어야 한다. 4. 기존선에서의 연장운행이 불가피하므로 기존선의 차량한계 내에서 안전하게 운행될 수 있어야 하고 전력공급은 기존선 방식인 A/C25KV, 60HZ의 사용이 불가피하다. 5. 고속전철의 건설비용, 차량의 제작비, 기술이전도, 국산화율 등을 고려한 시스템이어야 한다. 한국형 고속전철은 위의 기본원칙을 최소한 만조시킬 수 있는 시스템이어야 한다.

In this paper, the train resistances for HSR-350x(Korean High Speed Train project), which has been obtained by the coast-down test, have been proposed in cases of the open field and tunnel. They are approximated as quadratic functions suggested by the Davis equation. The coast-down simulations for HSR-350x using the estimated train resistances have performed and the results have been compared with those of the same conditions of the coast-down tests. It is concluded that the proposed train resistances can be considered to provide good estimations for HSR-350x. Also, the effects of the infrastructure conditions, such as tracks, curves and tunnels have been reviewed. These results show that the tunnel plays an important role in determining the train resistance but others does not.

This paper presents development of train performance simulation(TPS) program to analyze traction performance, braking performance and energy consumption for Korea high speed railway system. The conventional TPS program have some inconveniences such as DOS-based platform, user interface and limited function. The simulation technique model using scenario menu, various analysis function and object-oriented design/programming is presented. This simulation result have been compared with Alstom's for the Seoul-Pusan High Speed Rail Project.

In this paper, as the first step to assess and enhance the reliability of Korea High Speed Train, an electric traction system is selected and reliability analysis is carried out. The electric traction system is classified into subsystems and functional block diagrams and reliability block diagrams are drawn. Expressions for evaluating the reliability are derived and Mean Kilometer Between Service Failure is calculated using the trial track test results. The calculation results show reliability growth of the proposed system.

In this paper, as the first step to assess and enhance the reliability of Korea High Speed Train, auxiliary power system is selected and reliability analysis is carried out. The auxiliary power system is classified into subsystems and functional analysis is conducted. Reliability block diagrams are drawn and reliability parametric analysis is performed. Analysis results show that the reliability of auxiliary power system depends on critical items. To grow the system reliability, activities should be concentrated on improvement of critical items.

This study was carried out to reduce the lateral vibration of high-speed electric multiple units. In the study, the high-speed electric multiple unit prototype (HEMU-430X) has a high lateral vibration at low equivalent conicity regardless of the wheel profiles (XP55, GV40, S1002). As wheel wear progresses and the equivalent conicity increases, the lateral vibration tends to decrease. The reason is that a combination of the suspension characteristics causes the body and bogie to resonate at a frequency of 1.4 Hz when the equivalent conicity is low, resulting in body hunting. An investigation of the lateral vibration of overseas high-speed trains showed that a decrease in the hydraulic stiffness of the yaw damper could improve the vibration. The series stiffness of the yaw damper is a combination of the hydraulic stiffness and elastic joint. In this study, an attempt was made to improve the lateral vibration by lowering the stiffness of the elastic joint. The series stiffness of the adjusted yaw damper was approximately 60% compared to the original one. The on track test results showed improvement in the lateral vibration for both running directions. The vibration reduction method of this study can be used for EMU-250 and EMU-320 in future commercial operations.

The Korean High-speed train was developed during 1996 to 2007. This development project consists of many sub-projects and the train-system includes a lot of sub-systems. In order to promote the project on planned cost and time effectively, we tried to apply systems engineering process during the whole life-cycle. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the systems engineering process applied to this project. Activities carried out in each phase such as pre-design, detailed-design, integration & verification are described.

With the cooperation of many research institutes and railway companies, the next generation high speed train is under development for many years. To confirm the safety requirement of the developed high speed train, multibody dynamic analysis is implemented. Through this analysis, railway derailment and lateral guiding force simulation was evaluated according to UIC code 518 OR for international railway vehicle. Test results were compared by limit value of safety criteria. Safety evaluation results, according to international standards, would provide basic reference data of ensuring safety speed and track radius curve. The safety of the train at the maximum speed is verified by numerical analysis results.
