In this paper we describe contents and results on running test for ATP on-board equipment, which has propelled as one of the research projects, so called, "Reliability assessment and operation technology development for Korean-type tilting trains" in order to ensure the safety and operation efficiency of tilting trains. We developed tilting trains for the speed-up of conventional lines and for the passenger service improvement where the KTX is not available. And we made progress the operation trial test in the 120,000 km distance with the use of ATS equipment, used in existing lines, for the purpose of the reliability assessment of the developed tilting trains. We decided to accelerate the speed for more than 200km/h with respect to the 6 existing lines including Jungang-line and Chungbuk-line where KTX has not operated. According to this decision, Train control system is to be changed from ATS to ATP. We should have installed an ATP on-board unit in tilting trains and verified the operational suitability, therefore we installed the same ATP on-board unit on tilting trains as that used in the ATP construction project on Gyeongbu-line and Honam-line, and verified that the function and performance of the installed ATP on-board unit conformed to the tilting trains operation.

자기부상열차의 부상제어 및 마그네트의 전류 출력을 담당하는 마그네틱 드라이버(MDU)는 자기부상열차의 운전에 직접적인 영향을 미치며, 가장 안정적으로 운용되어야 할 시스템이다. 보다 안정적인 운전을 위해서는 Master와 Stand-by간의 상호 보완적인 감시시스템이 필요하며, 이것은 있을 수도 있는 사고를 미연에 방지할 중요한 목표이다. 이를 이루기 위해서는 부상제어기의 디지털/아나로그 회로에서부터 초퍼구성에 이르기까지 모든 부분에서 이중화가 고려되어야 하며, 특히 이중화 제어기는 상호감시라는 측면에서 접근하여, 고속으로 연산하는 제어기에서 이중화의 상대방 제어기의와의 연동이 필요하며, 초퍼의 이중화는 Hot-Backup의 관점에서 완전하게 독립된 두 개의 초퍼가 최소한의 불연속 제어요소를 가지고 절체되어야 하는 점이다. 이중화 마그네트 드라이브는 이러한 요소들을 만족시키며 최상의 안정성을 고려한 시스템이라 할 수 있으며 이후 실용화 단계에서 필요한 기술을 내포하고 있다.

Wireless communications based train control system which is operated with a dedicated frequency band is used only on the fixed path. Because of that, the problem arises in the area of efficiency. In this paper, a network access management technique is proposed to make the railway dedicated frequency band accessible by a normal mobile communication users efficiently and safely.

철도에서 선로용량은 선로의 신설이나 개량 또는 열차운용을 위한 스케쥴 작성에서 필수적인 용량한계의 측도 이다. 특히 선로를 신설하거나 개량할 때 선로용량은 주어진 사업비에 대해 각각의 안을 비교해 볼 수 있는 중요한 측도 이다. 이 논문은 기존의 선로를 개량하고자 할 때, 사용할 수 있는 선로용량의 거시모형을 제시하고자 한다. Jan C. Fransoo(2000)는 이 분야에 대한 선행연구를 수행한바 있다. 여기서는 네덜란드의 선로를 대상으로 2가지 속도종별의 선로용량에 대한 해석적 모형을 제시하였다. 이 논문에서는 선로용량의 모형을 3가지 이상의 속도종별에 대해 고려하는 연구결과를 제시한다.

Hitherto, train schedules are made by several human experts and the scheduling is very long and tedious job. Moreover those results are not accepted as the optimal solution. The purpose of this research is the finding of optimal methodology and useful constraints for locomotive scheduling. For these purposes, the interactive simulation program for train linking schedule is developed. Some constraints and technique for train linking scheduling is able to be edited or modified by various interactive windows. The constraints, rules and methodology for scheduling can be analyzed and also obtained useful schedule results by using this program.

Railway dedicated frequency bandwidth allocation matters are being discussed actively before an introduce of wireless communication based train control system to korean railway industry. Allocating the frequency band, which has great value as a public resource, for suitable use with right amount is particularly important, because of equity in other fields and valuable use of limited resources. In this paper, the feasibility about stable railway communication network operation based on LTE in diverse frequency bandwidth will be discussed with solicitous simulation.

As well as to operate a high-speed rail, our country with capability to produce high-speed train has developed a number of techniques, such as for a riding comfort improvement, automatic diagnosis for major electrical or mechanical parts, on board measurement for catenary systems and noise reduction of running rolling-stocks are still under development. In this paper, we describe the current status of operation technologies not only traditional railway wireless communication systems but also Long Term Evolution systems which would be deployed as soon as possible, like as in Europe, China and the United States. In addition, we produced the domestic wireless communication networks for railway which KORAIL Corp. has been operating and the schemes and the plans of HSR field test for the fourth generation mobile communication which should be enforced by national research and development.

The LTE-R system is a system consisting of a packet network that provides all IP-based services. Continuous failures related to the platform safety gate and subsequent safety accidents related to passengers and safety gate workers continue. The secondary damage caused by the failure of the platform safety door and the related human life damage have emerged as a major social issue.. By linking the beacon system to the Long Term Evoluton-Railway (LTE-R) network, an LTE-based railway wireless network currently in operation or being installed, it precisely locates trains and provides standardized fault alerts to train crews. When entering into the station, ultimately we will decelerate the train and reduce the accidents of metropolitabn railroad traffic by securing safe driving.

The purpose of this research is to optimize the line planning of the intercity passenger railway. In this study, the line planning problem has been formulated into a mixed integer programming by minimizing both user costs (passenger's total travel time) and operator costs (operation, maintenance and vehicle costs) with multiple train types. As a solution algorithm, the branch-and-bound method is used to solve this problem. The change of travel demand, train speed and the number of schedules have been tested through sensitivity analysis. The optimal stop-schedules and frequency as well as system split with respect to each train type have been found in the case study of Kyoung-bu railway line in Korea. The model and results of this research are useful to make a decision for railway operation strategy, to analyze the efficiency of new railway systems and to evaluate the social costs of users and operators.

Korea High-Speed Railway has various safety systems to secure safe and stable transportation and makes assurance doubly sure to minimize casualty and property damage caused by natural disasters. But, there is no regulation that reflects domestic railway line, climate, topographical and geological characteristic in introducing the foreign regulations yet. Therefore, it is necessary for us to modify a regulation which is suitable to domestic high-speed railway. In this study, it is possible to establish more reasonable boundary rainfall by grasping and improving the troubles with existing boundary rainfall that is scheduled to be utilized for high-speed rail-transport operation control under rainfall. Also, it is possible to insure the safety of train by four steps such as 'normal operation', 'warning issue', 'train speed control' and 'train stop' using the established boundary rainfall. It will go far toward minimizing the occurrence of natural disasters.
