A PSD system has a lot of characteristic for safety. Trust of performance test is very important. But PSD performance test has an effect on trust by proficiency of test staff because it is difficult to automate. In that specially the effort test, manual opening and shutting test and abrasion measurement, test staff is demanded for proficiency. Therefore the paper repeated measurement in same condition and studied proficient factor of examiner according to increased measurement counter. As a result, measurement uncertainty has improved.

Recently the demand of the driverless rolling stock is increasing with advancement of the stable communication technique and control technique. The automatic train operating system has advantages which takes low operating cost and is able to dispose elastically in demand. Beside it provides high safety and effectiveness because it will be able to control power, signal and communication system from Operation Control Center and the safety and effectiveness are high. The establishment of PSD, Platform Screen Door, is advanced in the goal which is passenger safety, fire protection, noise and dust reduction etc. When but, two advanced systems also have risks of operation delay and accident when two systems are not controlled smoothly. Thus, I'll introduce control method between onboard controller, door control unit in rolling stock and PSD controller to help system design.

The broadcasting system for the customer safety and conveniency is one of the important convenience facilities taking charge of customer guidance, emergency situation broadcasts for the people waiting at the platform, waiting lounge and train approaching broadcasts. To maintain this broadcasting facility local management control system(LMC) is needed. LMC observes operation status of the facility components which is set up at station and the observation results are confirmed through out remote management PC installed in the jurisdiction branch office. The staff only observes and confirms the errors of the electrical power source at broadcasting facility components accordingly the real mechanical troubles are detected by on-the-spot survey. this paper deals with existing broadcasting system only acting as a simple observation function and the research of LMC function extension which controls, monitors and tests broadcasting facility.

Plug-in type door is installed in recently designed tube. It is world wide trend to fulfill the customer's demand. But, plug-in door need widely gap between doorway and platform and it is raise an serious accident. Therefore, newly designed train must have safety device like a sliding step to prevent incident. This paper present about development process for sliding step. Trend of sliding step, development plan, course, technical description, and etc. will be included in this paper.

Steering systems are classified as FWS(front-wheel steering), RWS(rear-wheel steering) and AWS(all-wheel steering) according to steering position. AWS is effective to reduce turning radius and platform length because all wheels are steered. Although various rear wheel control logics for AWS were developed, these are applied to four wheel steering cars. Therefore new control logics must be developed to apply articulated vehicles. In the present study, it is suggested how to control the real wheels based on the virtual rigid axles and also how to set it to minimize the turning radius.

After the incendiary fire accident at Daegu subway, discussion of PSD installation started to prevent accident from fall. safety accident and big accident. Following these paradigm, the purpose of the study is to analyze the present condition of current installation of PSD in our country and suggest an improvement scheme for the future PSD operation extension. Using the SWOT analysis and we analyze the inner and outer capability of PSD installation. We try to find a counter plan strategy for PSD installation improvement scheme through the analysis.

Nowadays, subway station has provided not only transportation but living spaces for everyday activities. Therefore, a variety of facilities have been installed for a safety of citizens such as fire-fighting equipment, platform screen doors and giving high level of benefits such as air-conditioning and heating equipment, escalators, lighting apparatus. In order to operate these facilities appropriately, it is needless to say that electric power supply must be reliable. Many protection relays have been installed to protect electric apparatus and power system, nevertheless it..s study has been insufficient in the concrete. From this paper, through analyzing of protection relay system of electric room operated in line 2 of Seoul metro, we can help to improve stable power supply system of subway station.

After 1th line was built in 1974, the history of subway in Korea has been expended to 9th line which is under construction. It is time to prepare nation wide subway grounding system urgently according to the domestic electric standard that aligns to world wide standard by WTO/TBT treat (1995). Newly added grounding system to the fundamentally different system caused many problems. PSD(platform screen door) and other newly added equipment are also need grounding system. By the electrical code(established by Korea Electric Association), low voltage equipment(including grounding system) under 1,000V AC are in the process of change into IEC 60374. IEC 60364 standard will be added to the electrical code(established by Korea Electric Association) in 2007 and amended and after 3-5 years later, it will become a complete IEC 60364. So the purpose of this study is to compare the domestic rail road grounding system and suggest the standardized grounding system for the newly built subway.

A series of field tests were performed to develop aerodynamic characteristic evaluation method and countermeasure technology in conventional and high-speed railway. The strength of rolling stock-induced wind which affect the people and substructure in platform and nearby track were investigated. The slipstream of passing trains was measured by hot-wire array system. The speed of trains was 110 - 125km/h for conventional ones and 300km/h for high-speed ones. The streamlined shape trains cause about 50% smaller-scale slipstream compared to the non-streamlined ones.

The Objective of advanced EMU Project is development of new technologies, that can resolve the system problems of conventional EMU, for reducing vehicle maintenance, improving passenger's service using IT and providing environmental friendly. As a concept of advanced EMU, We will develop the DDM with individual driving wheel for reducing of maintenance cost and full-electric braking system without pneumatic braking, and a new bogie for loadable DDM, and pre-diagnosis system which informs possible system error, and decentralization of vehicle control. To improve transport reliability, and energy storage system for saving energy, and fallen passenger detection system for improving passenger's safety at the platform.
