Derail accident of train and motorcar through signal override causes such a huge obstruction in train service. To minimize such derail accidents, number of bills were examined such as installing normal and reverse position indicator on the switch. A indicator was necessary which does not affect current equipments and not to be confused as traffic lights. Normal and reverse position indicator is installed in the middle of the rail in front of front rod of switch. It is to prevent derail accident while manual handling of obstacle by ease of verifying normal and reverse position by attendants or motorcar driver. Also, it is a device that prevents accidents by indicating normal and reverse position of switch during night service of motorcar. Such a prevention accomplished through thorough maintenancework of equipment, precise handling of operators and exterior factors are eliminated or perceived and treated well.

Urban transit is a large scaled complex system which combines rolling stocks, power supply, signal communications, tracks & stations etc. KRRI develops nine key devices since July, 2007 as a part of the second phase of project on the standardization of urban rail transit system, which include information-communication system, station facilities, AC-DC current electric power system in urban transit. We promote the project under two directions, i.e. user-customer oriented standardization and strategic standardization for leading technologies in urban transit. In this paper, we present development plan of these key systems in view of system life cycle based on system engineering standards KSX ISO/IEC 15288 which supplies the common fundamental frame to describe the life cycle of artificial systems. System engineering process of KSX ISO/IEC 15288 are helpful to efficiently develop those key devices, although it is difficult to apply the standard identically to the key devices with the varieties and characteristics.

With the aim to maximize the use of a given voltage source in the field of railway and electric vehicles, this study applies a technique for controlling the overmodulation region between the linear and the six-step regions. High linearity overmodulation techniques that do not use look-up table (LUT) to digital signal processor (DSP) using carrier based pulse width modulation (PWM) are proposed. Such technique requires the phase of the voltage vector at the point where the circular trajectory of the voltage command vector and hexagonal cross each other. Therefore, a method is proposed to obtain a phase of a voltage vector that is derived through an equation and applied to a carrier-based PWM. Validity of the proposed implementation method is confirmed through simulation and experiment.

To solve the nozzle swing angle non-contact measurement problem, we present a nozzle pose estimation algorithm involving weighted measurement uncertainty based on rotation parameters. Firstly, the instantaneous axis of the rocket nozzle is constructed and used to model the pivot point and the nozzle coordinate system. Then, the rotation matrix and translation vector are parameterized by Cayley-Gibbs-Rodriguez parameters, and the novel object space collinearity error equation involving weighted measurement uncertainty of feature points is constructed. The nozzle pose is obtained at this step by the Gröbner basis method. Finally, the swing angle is calculated based on the conversion relationship between the nozzle static coordinate system and the nozzle dynamic coordinate system. Experimental results prove the high accuracy and robustness of the proposed method. In the space of 1.5 m × 1.5 m × 1.5 m, the maximum angle error of nozzle swing is 0.103°.

The explosion of data due to the improvement of sensor technology and computing performance has become the basis for analyzing the situation in the industrial fields, and various attempts to detect events based on such data are increasing recently. In particular, sound signals collected from sensors are used as important information to classify events in various application fields as an advantage of efficiently collecting field information at a relatively low cost. However, the performance of sound-event classification in the field cannot be guaranteed if noise can not be removed. That is, in order to implement a system that can be practically applied, robust performance should be guaranteed even in various noise conditions. In this study, we propose a system that can classify the sound event after generating the enhanced sound signal based on the deep learning algorithm. Especially, to remove noise from the sound signal itself, the enhanced sound data against the noise is generated using SEGAN applied to the GAN with a VAE technique. Then, an end-to-end based sound-event classification system is designed to classify the sound events using the enhanced sound signal as input data of CNN structure without a data conversion process. The performance of the proposed method was verified experimentally using sound data obtained from the industrial field, and the f1 score of 99.29% (railway industry) and 97.80% (livestock industry) was confirmed.

This paper presents schematically the monitoring system installed in Yongjong Bridge, a self-anchored suspension bridge located in the expressway linking Seoul and Incheon International Airport. Automatic measurement of instrumented civil engineering structures is now widely applied for behavior monitoring during construction in field as well as long-term monitoring for lifetime assessment of bridge structures. A representative example of results that can be acquired through structural health monitoring system is presented by means of data measured during a few years after the opening of the bridge. In order to effectively measure the tension force for hangers that have relatively short length or high tension force, a static tension measurement device has been explored. Newly equipped railway system on the existing bridge results in change of dead load, consequently dynamic characteristics have also been changed. This result can be detected by the monitoring system during and after railway construction.

Traditionally, the track circuits have been used for the purpose of train locating. However, the recent train control systems like a CBTC(Communications Based Train Control) do not utilize the track circuits to minimize the amount of ground signal devices. Therefore, there are increasing concerns over the system that can locate the position of train exactly without using the track circuits. Then, the contactless locating methods are added to ensure safety when the shunting sensitivity of the track circuit becomes low for the existing sections equipped with the track circuits. In this paper, a prototype of train locating device has been designed and tested, which utilizes the current phase difference upon magnetic field variation. The results show improved features of this method over the conventional track circuits method.

For the rapid and accurate warning, the system requires not only the sufficient number of seismometers but also the appropriate detection technique of sensor data. Instead of installing new seismometers, on-board accelerometers of the train could be utilized as alternatives. However, the data from on-board accelerometers includes train vibrations and the response of embankment site by earthquake, which are different from earthquakes measured from the seismometer. This study suggests signal analysis technique to detect earthquake from the on-board accelerometer data. The virtual on-board accelerometer data including the response of embankment site, obtained from site response analysis method, has been constructed. The constructed data has been analyzed using short time Fourier transform (STFT) and wavelet transform (WT). STFT method provides better performance to detect long-period earthquake whereas WT method is more available to detect short-period earthquake.

In this paper, the lessons and learns are introduced from the result of the trial project which is the first CBTC(Communication Based Train Control System) at Korail Bundang Line. This project has started end of 2002 and finished recently by Samsung SDS. The main purpose of this project was that new technology was seek for next generation of railway signal control system adapted in Korea. In 2002, there was no any revenue service system using Radio Frequency CBTC in the world at that time. Just a few trial project was on going in USA and EU. In well developed cities, the metro system have been built and old enough therefore they have to be considering re-signalling their existing system with advanced system for increasing availabilities of line usage and safety. This Bundang Line Trial Project was the first Korean CBTC project for above reasons. Most sub systems have been developed using local technology such as Electronics Controlled Interlocking System and Track Circuit Systems etc. Specially, in this project the RF-Communication devices are developed by local technology using DSSS(Direct Sequency Spread Spectrum) instead of FHSS(Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum). This project has lasted for more than five years originally planned for three years because it was only accessible only night time in the main line from Ori to Suseo about 20km long. Each night only 2 and half hours are available to use the main line. Now the trial project has been done successfully with meet the customer's requirement, therefore the upgrade the mainline of Bundang line and another extension area up to Wangsipli to make revenue service using this new technology. This paper shows this result of the trial project and the strategy of upgrade and extension project as well.

Based on time dependent location data of mobile phone users, users' ODs were produced after tracing their travel route and inducing their origins and destinations. System considered average signalizing frequency, which means that the longer the travel length is the more frequent the signal is. This is a home-based OD and is limited to the Seoul Metropolitan area. The OD matrix from the mobile phone data which was aggregated to the cell and transformed to the 'Dong' area, was compared to the KTDB OD. The results can be analyzed and it was determined that they are highly correlated because individual coefficients are 0.98 and 0.85, the former between the OD of this study and the KTDB Si/Gun/Gu unit area OD and the latter between the OD of this study and the Dong unit area KTDB OD.
