  • A few years ago, The trains had little control equipment so the trains had little data transmission between control equipment. Recently, there is a lot of control equipment in a train as traction control, air conditioners and even internet access. for this reason, vehicle network must allow for the big amount of transmission data and must ensure the high reliability. In this paper we present monitering system for verify high reliability of data transmission of MVB of TCN which is an international standard of IEC 61375.

  • A general idea of implementing and managing real-time control on the VDN for rail transit vehicles is presented. In particular, the virtual device network considered in this paper is composed of Ethernet as the data network and LonWorks network as the device (control) network. A LonWorks/IP web server was used as a gateway to realize peer to peer data communication on the virtual device networks. Experimental results are given to validate the suggested architecture.

  • Currently, with rapid progress and supply of mobile communication technology, LTE(Long Term Evolution) technology is expanded and widely used to industrial and emergency communications beyond earlier smart-phone based service. In this paper, transmission performance of voice traffic, one of railway communication service based on LTE-R as an application field of LTE technology, is analyzed. This study is performed performance analysis with level of application service and consider effects of satisfaction level for users. Computer Simulation based on ns(Network Simulation)-3 is used for analysis and VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) specification is used for voice traffics. Results of this paper is used to implement LTE-R networks and develope application services over LTE-R network.

  • Today, as railways increase their capacity and speeds, it is more important than ever to be completely aware of the state of vehicles fleet's condition to ensure the highest quality and safety standards, as well as being able to maintain the costs as low as possible. Operation of a modern, dynamic and efficient railway demands a real time, accurate and reliable evaluation of the infrastructure assets, including signal networks and diagnostic systems able to acquire functional parameters. In the conventional system, measurement data are reliably collected using coaxial wires for communication between sensors and the repository. As sensors grow in size, the cost of the monitoring system can grow. Recently, auto-powered wireless sensor has been considered as an alternative tool for economical and accurate realization of structural health monitoring system, being provided by the following essential features: on-board micro-processor, sensing capability, wireless communication, auto-powered battery, and low cost. In this work, an original harvester device is designed to supply wireless sensor system battery using train bogie energy. Piezoelectric materials have in here considered due to their established ability to directly convert applied strain energy into usable electric energy and their relatively simple modelling into an integrated system. The mechanical and electrical properties of the system are studied according to the project specifications. The numerical formulation is implemented with in-house code using commercial software tool and then experimentally validated through a proof of concept setup using an excitation signal by a real application scenario.
