In this paper it is proposed an advanced modified sliding mode control of a rotor field oriented control of induction motor. The application of this unconventional control has very good results, such as disturbance rejection and nice dynamic properties. Stability can be guaranteed even in the worst situation. A conventional "sliding mode" controller is characterised by fast switching control signal, which causes the chattering of the drive system. To overcome this problem, a modified law is used, by introducing a hysteresis band and a continuous control, which modifies the conventional law. The control is accomplished with dual TMS320C44 floating-point digital signal processor. The validity of the proposed method was verified by experiment on the propulsion system simulator, used for the development of Korean High-Speed Railway Train(KHSRT).in(KHSRT).

Light Rail Transit (LRT) is optimized vehicle system for complex urban circumstance. LRT systems have many merits such as improved accuracy and safety. There are many LRT systems such as monorail, tram, automated guideway transit, linear induction motor propulsion and so on. These systems have been operated in Japan and other advanced countries. In Korea, local government has many projects to apply the advanced LRT system. But there are no standards regulation, performance test regulation and construction regulation for monorail system, linear induction motor system and tram in Korea. We expect that standardization brings economical construction and safety. The linear induction motor system has been usually applied to subway in Japan and ART(Advanced Rapid Transit) in Canada. In Korea, the linear induction motor system has been adopted for Yong-In LRT and currently under construction. This paper presents signalling system and TCMS(train control and monitoring system) of linear induction motor system.

Electric railroad systems consist of supply system of electric power and electric locomotive. The electric locomotive is adapted to high speed driving and mass transportation due to obtaining high traction force. The electric locomotive is operated by motor blocks and traction motors. Train speed is controlled by suppling power from motor blocks to traction motors according to reference speed. Speed control of the electric locomotive is efficient by spending minimum energy between motor blocks and traction motors. Recently, induction motors have been used than DC and synchronized motors as traction motors. Speed control of induction motors are used by vector control techniques. In this paper, speed of the induction motor is controlled by using the vector control technique. Control system model is presented by using Simulink. Pulse is controlled by PI and hysteresis controller. IGBT inverter is used for real-time control and system performance is demonstrated by simulating the induction motor which has 210[kW] on the output power.

This paper is studied on the effect of the bolt joint stiffness on the Thrust Measurement Stand(TMS). TMS is a test stand for thrust performance of the propulsion system, which depends on two factors: The $1^{st}$ is the parallel degree between directions of the thrust vector and action lines of the corresponding measuring load cells for the vector, and the $2^{nd}$ is the orthogonality between action lines of the measuring load cells. Therefore, it is essential to maintain the original shape of the TMS under operating conditions. In this paper, it is examined how the geometric tolerance of the bolt joints and threads of the load cell trains affect the performance of the TMS. Also, some techniques to overcome related problems are proposed.

The measurement system is composed of the industrial computers installed in the console and the measurement racks mounted on each car. It is utilized to accumulate the data by the communication card and the optical cable. The optical cable and power cable are coupled at the connector located in joint of train to make easy to disconnect car each other. The signal conditioner is designed to choose and to extend the channel for each sensor readily, In this study, the programs for measurement and analysis were also developed to understand the traction system characteristics of TTX. Using this measurement system, we studied that acceleration test, re-powering test and gradually powering test. From the test results, we saw the performances of the traction systems are normal.

본 논문에서는 고속전철용 추진제어장치의 개발 및 본선 주행시험에 관한 내용을 소개하였다. 고속열차용 추진제어장치는 입력 전류의 고조파를 감소하기 위하여 단상 PWM 컨버터 2대가 병렬로 구성되고 인버터는 3상 인버터 1대로 구성된다. 추진제어장치의 전력회로를 간단히 구성하기 위하여 최대용량(4500V/4200A)의 IGBT 전력소자를 적용하였다. 3상 인버터는 가속시 스위칭 기어현상을 저감하기 위하여 저주파 동기 PWM 기법을 적용하였다. 추진제어장치의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 실제 차량이 운행될 본선에서 속도 300km/h까지 가속시험, 비상제동 시험, 구배기동 시험 등을 실시하였다. 시험을 통하여 제작된 추진제어장치가 성능사양을 만족함을 확인하였다.

This paper is focused on the adhesion control method to improve traction efficiency using the estimated adhesion for railway propulsion system. Recently, the wheel slippery is frequently occurred due to light weight of train and power increasement of traction parts. This phenomenon occurs a traction loss and a poor ride comport. Therefore, the adhesion control which is able to prevent the slippery and to control the traction on a maximum adhesion is absolutely needed. This paper introduces typical methods for adhesion control and proposes two novel adhesion methods using the estimated adhesion.

In this paper, an robust adaptive backstepping controller is proposed for the speed control of separately excited DC motor in pure electric vehicles. A general electric drive train of PEV is conceptually rearrange to major subsystems as electric propulsion, energy source, and auxiliary subsystem and the load torque is modeled by considering the aerodynamic, rolling resistance and grading resistance. Armature and field resistance, damping coefficient and load torque are considered as uncertainties and noise generated at applying load torque to motor is also considered. It shows that the backstepping algorithm can be used to solve the problems of nonlinear system very well and robust controller can be designed without the variation of adaptive law. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
