I In power transmission systems, voltage changes continuously as reactive power is whether over supply or shortage. Reactive power produces in generators and consumes in transmission lines, and loads. Voltages at end points of transmission lines rise which is called Ferranti effect. Excessive voltage rising can reduce transmission equipment life, the voltage rising is usually permitted within the limit of 10%~30% excess. Shunt reactors are installed in transmission lines to put a curb on voltage rising. In this paper, we tried to do modelling for shunt reactor configuration types which are no grounding, grounded and grouded neutral reactor. Simulation are carried out for reactor magnitude for compensating transmission line capacitance.

The purpose of interlocking system in railway is to prevent the route for a train being set up and its protecting signal cleared if there were already another, conflicting route set up and the protecting signal for that route cleared. Recently, conventional relays circuitry in industrial field is replaced to computer-based control systems according to the advance of computer and communication technology. Therefore, interlocking systems in railway field are rapidly changing from existing relay-based interlocking system to computer-based electronic ones that executes the vital interlocking logic to assure the safety train routes at trackside signaling equipment room using electronic circuits. So it is very important to verify the performance of developed electronic interlocking system by plentiful laboratory testing before actually application in the railway system. However the laboratory testing in the present state of railway signaling is preformed individually by manual, so very much test time and cost are required. To solve these problems, we are developed the simulator for automatic interlocking inspection in this research. This simulator is able to operate on general personal computer and has following beneficial functions : automatic test sheet generation for inspection, automatic inspection execution and et al. The experiments are executed to test the feasibility of the developed simulator the experimental results have good agreements with the anticipated ones.

The Centralized Traffic Control(CTC) System of Urban Railway is an element(subsystem) of the Urban Railway system to aim safety operation and efficient management of rolling stock in accordance with a train scheduling program in train operation ways. That's why the CTC System must be developed considering systematic and safety-guaranteed methods such as RAMS(Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety) refereed to IEC standards. The CTC System is consists of rolling stock, signaling, power supply, communication, and mechanical equipment and preforms control and remote monitoring functions. The technical activities considering safety process are very important at such an early stage of development in a railway project. This paper introduces RAMS activities and an independent safety assessment by $3^{rd}$ Party focused on a safety applied to a development of the CTC system of Urban Railway and proposes the experiences as well practices.

Railway safety is based on a risk analysis and safety assessment for the whole railway system as human, train, electric, signaling, operation, maintenance and etc. Therefore in this study, after investigating the accidents happened in electric railway on Choongang line for 5 years, from '97 to '01, a Data-Base was made through a cause and result analysis. In consideration of economic loss and human resources damage, a risk assessment for electric railway was also performed.

The new technology with Wireless LAN (WLAN) is implemented to the railway system, which is attached importance to safety and reliability. Railway control system based on WLAN that is called CBTC (Communication Based Train Control) is being developed by the advanced nations in this field and The system is applied to a new train line and a renovation for outworn equipment. The CBTC system has many merits about increase of capacity, reduction of headway and cost reduction etc.. Therefore, that is come into spotlight to the advanced railway company and the companies have being developed the system. So, we have developed the CBTC system for standardization and localization of the railway signal system.

Urban railway system has make rapid progress ever since Seoul metro line No.1 was opened in 1974. Now, it is time to prepare system maintenance scheme and procedure that can be available even after 30 years from now. Especially, signaling system must be chosen with considering its life cycle since the system is categorized into electronic equipments. As for current signaling system, mechanical components such as relays has decreased while communication and S/W has integrated in order to implement its correct function. Therefore, it is required to establish system review and switch-over scheme with considering operational environment, maintenance system and an operator. In this paper, therefore, we analyzed various factors - technical, operational and economic - that have effect on system improvement so as to prevent making any mistakes on system improvement.

The railway signalling system plays an essential role in the headway and routing control for a safe and efficient train operation. The reliable and safe operation of the system is very important because the failure of the railway signalling system can lead to the collision, derailment, or unexpected stop of a train. So far, the conventional wayside signal mode (ATS: Automatic Train Stop) has been generally used as the railway signalling system. However, this system is highly linked to a risk of major accidents resulted from human mistakes such as missing a signal or careless control of train speed. Accordingly, the onboard signal mode (ATC: Automatic Train Control) as an alternative of ATS has been recently introduced and applied to transmit effectively the information on speed control of a train by using computers and communication equipment. In the process of replacing the obsolete signal system, it is necessary to switch over the system while providing passengers with normal services. Therefore, the integration of a railway signaling system compatible for both ATS and ATC and its interface is discussed in this study. In particular, the implementation scenario required for operation planning of the integrated system was designed, and the results as well as effects of its applicability test were also presented.

This paper proposes a base models of Hybrid railway vehicle power system. A powered system with fuel cell is regarded as a high current and low voltage source. The design parameters of the system should be chosen by taking into account the characteristics of the fuel cell, so the costs of the power system at given operating conditions can be reduced. Currently, no integrated simulation has been approached to analyze interrelated effects. Therefore, the base models of power conversion system with a PEM fuel cell/IPT system for hybrid powered system that includes the PEM fuel cell stack, DC/DC converter are developed. Concept of bidirectional converter for super capacitor charging system is presented.

Recent advances in embedded system technology have brought more dependence on automating train control. While much efforts have been reported to improve electronic hardware's safety, not so much systematic approaches to evaluate software's safety, especially for the vital software running on board train controllers. In this paper, we have developed a software testing tool to evaluate train control system software safety, expecially "Metric Analysis" module. We have reviewed requirements in the international standards and surveyed available tools in the market. From this, we identified the S/W metric analysis module is required for software evaluation. So we have developed S/W metric analysis module for railway signaling systems.

철도에서 신호 장치는 지상신호 장치에서 차상신호 장치로 전환되고 있다. 기관사들은 현재까지의 지상신호 장치나 과거의 차상신호 장치의 경우 차내 신호에 현재속도보다 낮은 속도가 현시되거나 운행선로의 속도가 낮아질 경우 선로변 표지를 기준으로 제동제어 시점을 결정하였다. 그러나 최근 도입된 차상신호 시스템에서는 선로변 표지를 참고하지 못하고 차상신호 현시 값에 의해, 적정 제동시점을 찾기 어려웠다. 본 논문에서는 최근에 철도에서 사용되어지는 차상신호 시스템에서 기관사들의 제동제어 시점 및 방법을 연구하여 신호 system의 제동제어 감속도를 simulation하여 최적 제동제어 시점을 설정하고 그 점을 중심으로 가우시안 분포(Gaussian Distribution)를 이용하여 제동거리의 오차 범위가 안전거리 내에 있음을 증명하고 평가하였다.
