  • A measurement system of contact force between overhead contact line and pantograph of train is developed which measures the contact force by using four sets of full-bridge strain gauges instead of load cells and accelerometers. The sensors are installed on the pan head of pantograph and the measured data from the sensors are transmitted to a server system in the train by way of wireless Lan. This configuration of the measuring system makes it easy to install on the trains without any alteration of train system. The measurement system is applied to KTX on the Kyungbu high speed line, and the measured contact force data shows good agreement with those measured by load cell and accelerometers. The waveform of the contact force between overhead contact line and pantograph contains essential information about their conditions. The proposed measurement system can probe any defects on overhead contact lines with train running at high speed, which will be a powerful solution for the maintenance of long-distance overhead contact lines.

  • It was intended in this study to seek for the measures to utilize the USN technique, which has high usability due to low price and low power consumption, in air quality monitoring. As a method, the sensors of temperature, humidity, particulate matters (PM10), and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) were installed in the self-manufactured sensor nodes; the nodes were installed in the waiting rooms and platforms of a subway station and the measurements were collected at real time with use of a computer which micro gateway was built in. Collected data was to be processed by the statistics program installed in the computer; the collected data is to be used in managing the air quality of stations after transmission to the ventilation system of ventilation chambers.

  • The Maglev travels at levitated status from the rail in some gab (about $8\sim10mm$). it make difference with the existing subway or the another LRV. The detection method of the train speed and the train position to be used at Maglev's signaling system differ with the existing subway or the another LRV's. so, the signal system construction of the new method is necessary. This paper describes the configuration and characteristic of the total signaling system (TTC/Wayside/Cab/Guide way system etc.) developed for Maglev, and the design concept of the signaling system based on the latest wireless LAN communication for driverless operation.

  • Ubiquotuous technology should be adopted in railroad business to provide passenger's security and convenience. In this project, IT and smart sensor technologies are reviewed, benchmarked, designed, and implemented. The target system is the next generation high speed train to be developed and operated in Korea with the maximum speed of 400km/h. Wireless sensor network with smart sensors is implemented around a train car. PC-like IT terminal will be designed and implemented so an individual passenger can use it to do information retrieval through the Internet, personal data processing, the e-learning, shopping on the railroad, and so on. These provision will give comfort, convenience, and safety of a passenger during his/her trip.

  • Bimodal tram is able to run both general and special road. It has also the advantages of both public bus and subway which have the charateristics of easiness to approach and punctuality respectively. These advantages are accomplished by the cooperative communication between the control center and bimodal tram which is running with the fleet. This paper have investigated the requirement analysis and designing of the car operating computer system which have the functions of communication, broadcasting and display. car operating computer system communicates between bimodal tram and control center with wireless antenna. It can also transmit the location and status information of bimodal tram to control center for managing the bimodal tram fleet on road efficiently and economically.

  • Recently, the smart sensors and USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technologies are emerging. Smart sensors add the capability of storing local temporary data, processing instant operations, transmitting information outward, to the simple sensing devices. The USN is a wireless network of sensor/smart sensors that can collect data anywhere anytime and exchange the data within the network. In this research, case studies are performed on the smart sensors and USN applications. The cases were grouped in four categories, domestic private, domestic public, foreign private, and foreign public. Based on that survey, promising applications will be proposed and developed to be implemented to the next generation high-speed EMU.

  • The first tram in korea was commended the operation from 1899 to 1968 as a core role of public transportation. However, tram recently is being recognized as an alternative against a traffic congestion, a super-aged society and an environmental pollution problem. Because of these advantages, we are trying to introduce tram in korea. The efforts to introduce trams have focused on the economic analysis for tram construction. But we must be interested in tram operational safety. Early opening tram accidents could affect a negative impact on the additional tram introduction. We are trying to introduce trams in Daejeon, Wi-Rye and Su-won. In this paper, I want to check the safety issues in tram operation phase.

  • 경량전철과 같은 대용량 전력 시스템에 무선전력전송 기술을 적용할 때 전력변환장치의 병렬 운전은 필수적이다. 병렬 연결된 전력변환장치의 경우 출력이 공통으로 연결되어 전력을 공급하게 되는데, 이 때 집전 컨버터의 부하균등제어는 각각의 집전 컨버터의 부하 불균형을 막아줌으로써 집전 컨버터의 수명과 효율이 감소하는 것을 막아준다. 본 논문에서는 부하균등제어방법을 적용한 무선 경량전철 시스템을 통해 기존에 제안된 제어기법을 적용하여 검증하였다. 실증시험의 경우 경산에 위치한 한국철도기술연구원 경량전철시험선의 시험용 경량전철을 두 개의 역사를 반복하여 셔틀 운행하여 최대 400kW의 전력을 두 개의 집전 장치가 전력을 균등하게 공급하는 것을 확인 및 분석하여 논문의 타당성을 검증하였다.
