This paper reports on measurement method for the fiber optic strain monitoring of overhead contact line systems of trains. We used fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors to measure the strain variation of overhead contact line. FBG sensors were attached on the contact line and connected to the monitering system with optical fibers. The monitering system with FBG sensors showed very good sensitivity to measuring strain variation and this system could be applied to the overhead contact line of KTX.

Along with the increase of railway catenary system operation speed to 400 km/h, there have been growing demands for good quality current collection systems that satisfy quality standards as well as criteria for safe working. Retaining uniform elasticity tension of contact wires is essential in maintaining high quality contact between pantograph and OCL (Overhead Contact Line) of current collection systems in high speed railways. Therefore, the tension of contact wire must be kept within tight tolerance limits in both working conditions and adverse weather conditions of catenary system. In accordance with these conditions, this paper presents a real time monitoring system for the tensioning device of the newly installed catenary system on the special route of Honam high speed line for 400 km/h operation. For the verification of the true value of tension of contact wires, we have developed ring-type tensioning sensors which were installed on supporting points of mast which compose the catenary system. According to the field test performed on the Honam high speed line catenary system, variation of tension was measured accurately in real-time.

고압 전선 등에 장착된 시스템에 전원을 공급하기 위해서는 절연 이격 거리 이상의 거리에 무선으로 수십 Watt 급의 전력을 보낼 수 있는 시스템이 필요하다. 이러한 무선 전력 전송 시스템은 대개 코일의 크기가 10cm 이상의 대형이다. 본 연구에서는 이처럼 대형 코일을 Printed circuit board를 이용해 제작할 경우 발생하는 손실 발생원 들을 분석하고 그 중 가장 주요한 손실원인이 Dielectric loss 라는 것을 밝혔다. 또한 이 dielectric loss를 최소화 하기 위해서 PCB의 재질 선정 방법 및 Distributed tuning capacitor method를 제시해 $40cm{\times}40cm$ 크기의 4턴 및 5턴 코일의 설계 방법을 제시했고, 실험을 통해 Quality factor를 300 이상으로 만들 수 있음을 보였다.
