The headway in Korean national railway normally runs from 6 to 10 minutes. It turns out that the current signal system can not decrease the running headway of the High Speed trains, which are scheduled to set out in April, 2004, between Seoul and Daejeon, since both the existing classical trains and the High Speed ones run on the section. Thus, a new signal system is to be introduced to secure safe and reduced headway. The present paper attempts to analyze the headway between this particular section Seoul-Daejeon of the classical line, where we expect the most severe bottleneck situation to occur. We employed two modes in our analysis : the Ground Signal mode and the On-board Signal mode. which are to be adopted starting from 2006.

The velocity of train which is measured from pulse generator attached to TM is used for displaying or control signal of inverter and so on. Measured signals increase and decrease step-by-step by pulse counting or monotonously by F/V conversion. But noises and signal distortions by measuring error like alias make it difficult to provide correct velocity infomation and estimate the acceleration. In this paper, we investigated the performance of Smoothing method for suppressing the noises in velocity signals. And the difference between Smoothed signal and origin velocity signals is inspected and the comparison with low pass filtering show applicable of Smoothing method for noise rejection and the estimation of signal. Finally, acceleration curves estimated from Smoothing method are compared with real accelerator signal attached to train.

Is changed from ground signal way to Onboard signal way serving speed elevation of railroad worldwide. Therefore, importance of Onboard signal equipment is rising. Onboard signal equipment value of first time construction important. Domestic railroad and city railroad are built without standard current. Therefore, much expense is paid in maintenance and alternate of equipment. Therefore, establish standard for devices of childhood. Therefore, can have curtailment of operational expenses and specialization of skill human strength.

In this paper, we analyzed the error rate performance of convolution coded 16 QAM signal in impulsive noise Environments. We used convolution code and selective combining diversity for performance improvement. We analyzed the error rate performance of 16 QAM signal in impulsive noise environments compared with gaussian noise environments. As a result of analysis, there is a BER segment where the efficiency of system does not improve until which limit to raise a signal power potential from impulsive noise environment. when the signal power potential which goes over this limit is supplied, BER efficiency improve much more.

Radio propagation in a high-speed railway is affected by ground reflective waves that are due to irregular reflection by the railway track, which consists of rails, sleepers, and gravel. This paper provides a train radio propagation model that simulates an irregular track reflective wave as a random variable. A simulation study using the train radio propagation model shows that the path loss exponent is around 3.0, indicating a reduced path loss compared to the value of 4.0 in the general mobile radio environment. Regressive analysis of the received signal strength indicators measured in the Gyeongbu high-speed railway showed the results identical to those of the simulation. These results confirm the train radio propagation model and can be applied to the coverage estimation and the design of a train radio network.

Accurate and reliable tracking system is essential for the central train control system. There are two systems widely being used. one is the fixed block system which utilizes the track circuit for the detection of train position. the other is the moving block system which has the advantage over the former since it enables shorter radio signal for the train position detection. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed which uses signal's phase difference of arrival to detect the train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

A signal equipment improvement project for the existing facility ATS to ATP is under construction in Kyung-Bu and Ho-Nam commercial line including 400 rolling stocks. But there was a concern for the interface between KTX OBCS and ATP from the beginning of the project. At present, this is the front burner event. This paper introduces interface checking and predicted failure point between KTX OBCS and ATP improvement system. Through this measure the optimal installation of the ATP will be possible. The study was made under maintenance efficiency including reliability because the KTX signal equipment must qualify the above condition.

AT-PASS(Access Train-Portable Access Signal alarm System) which is used at railroad sideway has an important effect upon geography. Especially, it is used at railroad which is a particular condition, tunnel, curve sections and electric car line sections. Therefore, this paper investigated an affection though field test of railroad which is a particular condition.

In this paper propose the new method on desig ESJ(Electrical Separation Joint) of Jointless Track Circuit. ESJ has a capability to saparate track signal electrically but enable connected a track section physically. So It is more proper to high-speed line. Because that demand a critical traveling safety and convient taking a train. In spite of existing ESJ of Jointless Track Circuit, UM7l, S-bond, According to new pole-zero placement and desgining tuining-unit It is possible to prove a independence of track-section and track-signal in new ESJ design of this paper

This paper deals with the applicability of long-gauge deformation fiber optic sensors (FOS) to prestressed concrete structures. A main motivation is the desire to monitor the deflection of the railway bridges without intervenes of the signal intensity fluctuations. A 25 m long, 1.8 m deep PSC girder was fabricated compositely with 22 cm thick reinforced concrete deck. Two pairs of 3 m long-gauge sensors are attached to the prestressed concrete girder with parallel topology. Using the relationship between curvature and vortical deflection and the quadratic regression of curvatures at the discrete point, it is possible to extrapolate the deflection curve of the girder. The estimated deflection based on the developed method is compared with the results using conventional strain gauges and LVDTS. It has been demonstrated that the proposed instrumentation technique is capable of estimating the vertical deflection and neutral axis position of the prestressed concrete girder up to weak nonlinear region.
