Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the software and hardware of the measuring system for on-line test and performances evaluation of traction and braking in KTX(Korea Train Express). The measuring system focuses on the verification of the performance and acquisition of test data. The hardware is connected many kinds of sensors, such as speed sensor, thermocouple. The software controls the hardware of the measuring system, performs the analysis and calculation of measurement data and acts as interface between users and the hardware. For this purpose, three programs, such as a measuring program, a back-up program and a analysis program, have developed.
