The Korean high speed train(KHST), developed since 1996, is presently undergoing commissioning tests on the high-speed track as well as on the conventional track since 2002. The purpose of the commissioning test is twofold: first to verify the performance of the train-set and equipments, and to demonstrate system reliability. Last December, KHST has reached the maximum speed of 350km/h and a number of data proving the performance of the train has been acquired. Among the data noise level and pressure variation in a cabin are important factors effecting passenger's comfort. Discussed in this paper are interior noise and pressure variation when the train passes tunnels during the 350km/h test.

KHST project plans to design and to build an high speed train. There are noise requirements in passenger room for the standing and running train, which should be reached. Noise prognosises are calculated for the standing and running TM5(Motorized car) and TT4(Trailer car) train (v=300km/h) to find out critical areas in or around the train. On those areas, actions of noise reduction are proposed to reach the requirements. Finally noise prognosises are calculated for the higher velocity of v=350km/h.

With the opening of the KTX(Korean Train Express) in April 2004, Express Train service started in KNR(Korean National Railroad). Each KTX train consists of 18 passenger compartments in total, such as of 4 first class car and 14 standard class car. And 2 compartments of standard class are serviced as a unreserved seat only. The Unreserved seat system of the KTX is convenient to the customer who wants to take a train without making a reservation. This study was designed to analyze the unreserved seat system of the KTX which is currently used, and to investigate the necessary conditions for gaining in public favor by developing the system.

Currently, most of TIDS(Train Information Display System) is operated colored-LED type equipment in Korea. This current TIDS equipment has not graceful display and causes passengers' fatigues, high operating and maintenance costs, and et al. To address these several, we are developed new colored-LCD type TIDS equipment. According to our developed new TIDS equipment, we can achieve high resolution and graceful color stone of information display.

Theoretical study has been conducted to clarify pressure characteristics of KTX(Korea Train eXpress) in tunnel. The external and internal pressure of rolling stock have been measured by using the atmospheric pressure sensors and portable data acquisition system on Seoul-Busan high speed railroad line. These pressure change may give rise to the ear-discomfort for passenger and fatigue for car body. In this study, the tunnels from 200m to 4000m in length have been chosen for the investigation of tunnel length effects. From the results of experiment, the pattern of pressure change generally agrees to RTRI's experimental result for Shinkansen. We found that there are similar patterns of external pressure variation for each critical tunnel length. The critical tunnel lengths are governed by train speed, train length and sonic velocity.

Tilting system allow the train to pass curve at higher speed without affecting passenger comfort. As the tilting trains offer the optimum means of providing faster and more comportable rail service with minimum of environmental disturbance and capital investment, more than 14 countries have now adopted or are about to adopt tilting train technology. The Korean National Railroad is also planing to apply faster tilting train to the areas where the High speed rail service are not provided. This paper shows the concept design of Bogie and Tilting system for 180 km/h Express tilting train for Korean conventional line, which was done as a part of the KNR's R&D project.

Recently, in the metro railways, researches on the skip-stop operation and development of the double deck train-set are active, which is to improve the service quality through reducing the passenger travel time and suppling seating service. Constructing new line or reforming the existent line needs huge amount of budget. Therefore, previous to start these large scale projects, scrutiny on benefit improvement, cost reduction and those optimal trade-off is indispensable. In this paper, a quantitative analysis to determine the optimal train service patterns and train-sets necessary is proposed, under the skip-stop operation condition in the metro railways. The analysis models are formulated in mathematical programming model, and tested validity using the LINGO 7.0.

This paper presents the optimal design method of the train repair facility based on the simulation analysis. The train is divided into the power car, motorized car and passenger car for the simulation process analysis and train repair facility is composed of each subsystems such as a blast, dry and wash workshop. In simulation analysis, we consider the critical (dependent) factors and design (independent) factors for the optimal design. Therefore, a simulation optimization uses Evolution Strategy (ES) in order to find the optimal design factors. Experimental results indicate that simulation design factors are sufficient to satisfy the conditions of dependent variables. The proposed analysis method demonstrates that simulation design factors determined by the simulation optimization are appropriate for real design factors in a real situation and the accuracy and confidence for the simulation results are increased.

Wireless communication for train control is an active research field. The World Railway Federation in Europe developed GSM-R, which integrates the GSM-based voice call standard and train control signals. To provide advanced railway services, the LTE-R wireless communication system was developed in Korea for passenger services and wireless image information required by the railroad industry. Recently, direct communication technology for autonomous train driving has been studied to decrease the driving interval, and research is being conducted on a hyperloop train control system that runs at a maximum speed of 1,220km/h in a subvacuum environment of 0.001 atmosphere. In this paper, we summarize the trends in wireless communication technologies used for GSM-R/LTE-R railway systems. For future wireless communication in railway systems, we discuss autonomous train driving and the hyperloop railway control system, define wireless communication technology, and discuss trends in domestic and foreign technologies.
