In this paper, when electric train is in dead-section the effect on electric train system was dealt. The feeding system of electrical railway is AC or DC. When the electric train is passed AC feeding system to DC, vice versa or phase is changed in between AC feeding systems, there is a dead section. A dead section usually makes the electrical system complex md may have an adverse effect on the electrical system inside the train. Accordingly, it is important to analyze the effect on trains in dead-section. Modeling an electric train and simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC was accomplished to analyze how power quality problem such as inverter switching surge is propagated to electric train through the feeding line, railway, pantograph.

To meet the demand increasing passengers in railway vehicles, railway transportation service companies are increasing the numbers of cars per train-set. Two solutions, Variable train-set formations and Multiple train-set operation, are common way to increase the transportation capability. These kind of long distance train-set can effect train-set command and control system, and sometimes the digital signals using train line from master cabin can not reach to the systems located the other extremity slave car. This is so called Voltage Drop. This phenomenon is originated from the electrical power consumption and electrical cable resistance, and cause to the equipments or cars located end of the electrical cable way, malfunction or abnormal operations. This voltage drop happens not only in train lines but also Battery Power Lines. The purpose of this investigation is to design high reliability railway vehicles by clarifying the possibility of happening these events case by case, by analyzing the reasons, and finally by finding the best solutions.

Communication based train control system is applied regularly worldwide. And this system may be used in domestic soon. Communication based train control system does not depend on conventional track circuit. Therefore, position and distance control of train to prevent collision with leading train may become important safety factor. This paper developed collision avoidance algorithm to control trains of several units efficiently for this. In developing a collision avoidance algorithm, it is desirable to avoid the need for additional system. Additional system restricts the development of the algorithm by limiting the effectiveness of the algorithm to only those areas where the additional system can be afforded and has been installed.

TCMS is the most important controller in the subway train for reliable train control and service oriented flexibility. TCMS software charges communications and control of train and maintains control devices so we use QNX for real-time control. This paper introduces overall software development of TCMS using various diagrams. Software implementation details in TC and CC are explained using deployment diagram through train configuration. Driving control process among many processes is focused to present implement details which controls train by driver or automatic train operation and handles commands to control deriving devices in cars. Reliable operation of train and easy maintenance process is achieved through the same hardware in train control computer and car control computer.

In this paper, the modified simulation algorithms of the Auto Transformer (AT) feeding electric train system were proposed. To obtain terminal voltage of train by using equivalent circuit or the AT feeding system, the iterative method is proposed for which determine the train voltages. The train voltages are iteratively calculated from the system voltage drop and line impedance. In the carte study, the proposed method is verified from actual operation data of the Kwa-Chon line. Also it is verified that the proposed method can be extent to the multi-train simulation tool. The terminal voltage of the multi-train can be calculated by using superposition principle and it is easily applied to the proposed method. Therefore, the proposed method can be a solution for the complexity of the circuit analysis in the existing methods.

In general, the braking system of high speed train has an important role for the safety of the train. To stop safely the train at its pre-decided position, it is necessary to combine property the various brakes. Generally high speed train has adopted a combined electrical and mechanical (friction) braking system. Electrical brakes are consist of rheostatic brake, regenerative brake and eddy current brake and mechanical brakes are composed of disc brake, wheel disc brake and tread brake. In this paper, we introduce braking performance analysis and inspection though simulation and research to reduce braking distance.

CBTC(Communication Based Train Control) System can improve train operation efficiency by realizing moving block system which makes a continuous train interval control in accordance with the position and speed of train. Adopting radio transmission to make a continuous detection of train position and transmit the control data from the ground to a train, CBTC needs dedicated train operation and control algorithm which should be quite different from the conventional track-circuit-based train control system. This paper provides a train operation display and control algorithm for CBTC system in making train interval control, train route control and train supervision. Signalling pattern diagram is devised to analyze the train interval control mechanism of moving block system, and interlocking logic is devised to represent the train route control mechanism of moving block system. For train supervision, train occupation status on railway are displayed by using the segment which virtually divide the whole railway. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the development of CBTC system for the standardized AGT(automatic guided transit) which is under construction now in Korea, and also can be applied to any other CBTC system.

This paper gives a basic data of improving the performance of railroad signalling equipment by adopting GPS and wireless telecommunication technologies. These approach enable the moving block control of train, which can optimize train operation by reducing the distance between trains and maximize the railroad capacity. These method of detecting train position and controling train movement can also improve the train route control at stations.
