Track circuit is a simple electrical device which lies in the connection of the two rails by the wheels and axle of locomotives and rolling stock to short out an electrical circuit, used to detect the absence of a train on rail tracks. In railway signaling system, there are similar systems such as RFID and wheel sensor, GPS etc, are research and developing. Hybrid track circuit is using RFID antenna and reader on the cab and RFID tag on the sleeper. because of the safety in railway operation, tag detection of train position detection function in the hybrid track circuit needs high reliability. This paper studied tag recognition enhancement used tag angles.

열차가 주행하는 선로에 설치되는 궤도회로는 레일 자체를 전기회로의 일부로 사용하여 일정 구간 내의 차량 유무를 판단하기 위한 회로이다. 국내의 경우 사용 주파수에 따라 전원전압 주파수의 짝수 고조파 대역을 사용하는 고속선 궤도회로와 홀수 고조파 대역을 이용하는 일반선 궤도회로로 구분할 수 있다. 이러한 궤도회로가 설치된 선로를 주행하는 고속차량의 주전력변환장치 컨버터는 단위 역률 제어를 수행하기 위하여 전원전압의 홀수 배수의 스위칭 주파수를 가지고 있기 때문에 컨버터 동작 시 가선전류에 고조파 전류가 생성된다. 이 때 컨버터부에서 발생되는 고조파 전류의 주파수와 궤도회로의 사용 주파수 대역이 일치하는 경우에 궤도회로의 오작동을 유발할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 입력 컨버터부에서 사용하는 스위칭 주파수를 운행 구간에 따라 가변시켜 궤도회로 간섭 고조파 성분을 제어하는 방법을 제안하고 시험을 통해 성능을 확인하였다.

The operational orbit evolution of the KOMPSAT-l over 3 years was analyzed. During LEOP, four orbit maneuvers were performed to obtain the optimized orbit and eight safe-hold modes happened. The effects of unpredictable occurrence of the safe-hold mode and the highest solar activity on the orbit evolution during the mission life were analyzed. The comparison of orbital elements between long-term predicted orbit and determined orbit from observed data was also performed. The operational orbit started from the optimized one was evolved within the boundary of the designed mission orbit except altitude and it was verified the sun-synchronous orbit was successfully maintained.

Two types of track circuits are used in high speed railway car depots: one is High Voltage Impulse Track Circuit(HVITC); the other is AF track circuit. HVITC detects train occupation of blocks and broken rail; the AF track circuit is used for train onboard control system pretesting before departure. This testing is used to transmit train control information through the AF track circuit. The two systems are switched in turns for testing. We propose a system in which the AF track circuit is replaced by a loop cable that is installed on the inside rail; as such, engineers do not need to switch the systems. In cases in which the two systems run simultaneously, mutual interference may occur. In this paper, we identified this mutual interference by modeling of the two circuits.

Sleepers perform bearing rails and are underneath rails. Therefore, the current and voltage of rails are related to the resistance of sleepers. In case that the resistance of sleepers are low, operation problems of relays in tr ack circuits are occur because of flowing leakage current through sleepers. So the condition that the track circuit is always occupied by a train is kept. Currently, the creosote has been used in wood sleepers due to prevention against putrefaction. After a long time, the material is changeable to the chemistry material bases on carbon dioxide or carbon. So, the insulation resistance of wood sleepers is lower than the initial insulation resistance. In case of effecting wood sleepers as conductors, amplitude of the current and voltage on rails is decreased. This phenomenon causes that a train does not receive signals. In this paper, four-network model on the track circuit including the insulation resistance of sleepers is suggested. Also, the standard value of the resistance in straight section is proposed in the wood sleeper.

Iron fillings which were accumulated around the rail was often the cause of abnormal signal in case of signaling equipment using rail as transmission line. Iron fillings were generated on curved section of railroad due to the friction between rail and wheel, and metro line company urged to find the way to remove these iron fillings, because these were often the cause of abnormal signal. Magnetic device for trapping iron fillings around concrete slab tracks is introduced. The characteristics of magnetic device were analyzed using basic design and numerical analysis method. Magnetic device for trapping iron fillings were examined for application to the train which were operating in commercial line.

본 논문은 고속선에 사용 중인 UM71-C 궤도회로에 대한 전기적인 특성에 관한 시뮬레이션 실행결과를 나타낸다. 고속선 운행선상의 샘플개소를 선정하여 환경에 따른 선로정수를 구하고 전송라인의 특성임피던스와 전파정수를 반영시켜 레일전압과 전류에 대한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 차상검측시스템에서 측정되어진 검측데이터 파형과 비교하였다. 이러한 모델링 작업은 궤도회로 구성요소의 기능저하를 사전 예측하여 열차의 안전운행을 확보하기 위한 기초자료로 사용되어 질 수 있으며, 또한 차상검측시스템에서 얻어진 검측데이터와의 비교를 통해 유지보수에 활용 가능한 활용지침 및 분석기준을 작성하기 위해 필요하다.

After launch, in order to inject the geostationary satellite into its operational orbit, the perigee altitude are forced to be raised to geostationary altitude by firing onboard LAE(Liquid Apogee Engine) at apogee of the transfer orbit. In this process, the LAE burn is divided into three or four separated burns in order to control the orbit very precisely by giving feedback the determined orbit informations and to inject the satellite in predefined longitude. This paper proposes an algorithm to determine LAE firing time slots and ${\Delta}V$ vectors under assumption of impulsive LAE burning, and additionally, a method to compensate errors induced by continuous burning. And computer simulations have been performed to validate proposed algorithms.
