Generally, there are two types of main factors to affect output power quality of a auxiliary power supply an EMU(electric multiple unit). One is a voltage flicker by amplitude modulation of short time and air compressors. The other is repetitive motion of large capacity motor such as air compressors, HVAC unit etc. in main factors. This paper compared two kinds of fluorescent lamp, 32W (after remodeling interior) and 40W(before remodeling interior) and measured the light output varying input power(AC220V) for a flicker phenomenon related power supply of lamps in EMU. Also, we analyzed a flicker considering EMU operating time and density in order to grasp main factors of a load change to cause a voltage change. As a results of test, a 40W fluorescent lamp was more insensitive with 20.26% degree an eye recognition degree sides about changes of the input power and lower with 19.9% voltage side generating flicker compare with fluorescent lamp 32W. Also, we confirmed the fact which the fluorescent lamp flicker was generated by varying fluorescent lamp output voltage when the commercial EMU was in high driving density and at the busy time. Additionally, we confirmed the frequency band which an EMU passenger could feel sensitively blinking of a fluorescent lamp was visually $8Hz{\sim}15Hz$.

The contact force, which is the dynamic interaction between the pantograph and the catenary, is an important indicator for evaluating the current collecting quality, which is a stable power supply characteristic to the vehicle. In this study, dynamic contact force characteristics of pantograph of HEMU-430X vehicle, which is a power-distributed high-speed train test vehicle, were analyzed according to the catenary tension and compared with the analytical results using the pantograph-catenary interaction model. As a result of comparing the test results with the analytical results, it was confirmed that the average contact force and the standard deviation of the contact force, which are the main dynamic contact force characteristics, coincide relatively well. Using the analytical model, the relationship between the catenary tension and the contact force is presented according to the vehicle speed, and the optimal catenary tension for each operation speed is presented and compared with the international standard. As a result, it was found that the results obtained from the analysis are comparable to those recommended by international standards.

The functions and roles in the various fields of modern society are changing into the unified and multiplex structure, which is simultaneous and virtual communication environments beyond physical space and time, by the digital IT technology. The urban traffic system is also being intellectualized in order to solve urban traffic problems and convenient services by using digital IT technology. The bus, which is the one of the most common public transportation, are suffering in the decrease of bus service quality and the bus passengers rate because of the development of other public transportation systems such as the subway and electric railway and by rapidly increasing private cars. By recognizing these problems, many domestic and overseas cities are promoting to introduce the Bus Information System (BIS) to improve service quality of buses through the intelligent traffic system. According to the construction of this new information system called the Bus Information System (BIS), the new bus stop configuration system and design plans are being required to solve the existing bus stop information system. Therefore, this research was conducted to suggest an effective BIS configuration system plan and synthetic design goals based on the investigation the problems of the information system and the BIS configuration system for Busan city. Also, this research are conducted the below actions as follows: First, the literature survey was conducted, such as theoretical documents on the bus stop and the Bus Information System(BIS), Also, the design trend of the BIS was examined through domestic and overseas BIS cases studies. Scondly, the problems related to the information system in Busan city bus stops were investigated to investigate the present state and problems of the Bus Information System (BIS). Finally, as a result of this research, the effective BIS configuration system plan and design approach methods of bus stops were proposed for by Busan city based on the above investigation results.
