  • A LRT(Light Rail Transit) is one of the Future Urban Railway Development Project. The project's goal is to reduce a transportation congestion in the center of the city. New transportation is intensely required in order to overcome a limit of the ground transportation that is the existing public transportation, A LRT(Light Rail Transit) construction project to be based on an unmanned driving system is the large composition system that a vehicle, a signal, communication, electric, track etc. were organically integrated as echo-friendly urban transportation systems. It also put a huge budget, which is a large-scale infrastructure projects. It is international trend that Light Rail Transit projects apply a technique in System Engineering for a schedule, cost, quality elevations, and to approach in viewpoints of life-cycle from initial construction steps to operation, abolition. This paper intends to analyze RAM requirements taking into consideration ISO/IEC 15288 throughout life-cycle from concept, design, manufacture, operation and maintenance to the final phase, decommissioning, and the study seeks to suggest directions of efficient use to domestic LRT projects.

  • Since 2003, the domestic ground signalling system of the Kyeongbu and Honam lines has been steadily improving with the introduction of the ATP system and application of the system to the train is actively being pursued for 2009 target. Therefore, new ground signalling systems are being installed to the trains and track conditions to control the train speed to a maximum of either 80km/h, 120km/h, 150km/h, or 160km/h. As well, considering safe breaking distance, block signalling has been installed and also the change over times of the track switching device has been adjusted according to the train speed. Since the new Tilting trains will be running faster than present trains, at speeds over 180 km/h, we anticipate that there will be problems with present signalling facilities. Therefore this paper attempts to examine the various problems with the interface between the ATP signalling system and the new Tilting trains and also it will propose the most effective operating plan based upon case studies of successful foreign operations.

  • To accelerate a heavy roller coaster train with over 1G force, a lot of thrust is required and linear synchronous motor(LSM) as propulsion method is suitable for this kind of system. To increase the propulsion efficiency of LSM, precise and real-time position information of vehicle is required for accurate phase control. However, the discontinuous position information with relatively long time interval is usually transmitted from the hall-sensors on the track every magnet length. In this paper, the basic motor model based on traditional dq-axis equations is described and the motor dynamic model is produced by considering the cogging force and friction loss. To improve the position accuracy, the position estimator is also proposed for LSM control system. Simulations were performed to check the characteristics of the torque control system which includes the position estimator based on the motor model. Simulation results based on the linearized model show that this control system has an enough bandwidth and phase margin and the executed algorithm achieves an ideal effect to follow the real-time position signal. Therefore, the feasibility of position estimator is also confirmed.

  • The explosion of data due to the improvement of sensor technology and computing performance has become the basis for analyzing the situation in the industrial fields, and various attempts to detect events based on such data are increasing recently. In particular, sound signals collected from sensors are used as important information to classify events in various application fields as an advantage of efficiently collecting field information at a relatively low cost. However, the performance of sound-event classification in the field cannot be guaranteed if noise can not be removed. That is, in order to implement a system that can be practically applied, robust performance should be guaranteed even in various noise conditions. In this study, we propose a system that can classify the sound event after generating the enhanced sound signal based on the deep learning algorithm. Especially, to remove noise from the sound signal itself, the enhanced sound data against the noise is generated using SEGAN applied to the GAN with a VAE technique. Then, an end-to-end based sound-event classification system is designed to classify the sound events using the enhanced sound signal as input data of CNN structure without a data conversion process. The performance of the proposed method was verified experimentally using sound data obtained from the industrial field, and the f1 score of 99.29% (railway industry) and 97.80% (livestock industry) was confirmed.

  • Light Rail Transit(LRT) is a large scale complex system which combines rolling stocks, power supply, signal communication, tracks & stations, and hundreds of billions of wons per project are spent for construction. Therefore efficient integration of sub-systems is very important. The systems engineering is a good method to reduce the cost and risk of LRT project. In this paper, we introduce a research plan on the application of systems engineering to LRT project. We, Korea Railroad Research Institute(KRRI), launched a research program with 4 companies, which is support by the governmen and project period is 4.5 years. Main research topic is to develop the technology for the application of systems engineering technical process to LRT project based on ISO/IEC 15288.

  • This paper investigates the lighting environment of railway system which are mainly used in KTX, Saemaul and Mugunghwa. When lighting used in KTX such as fluorescent lamp and incandescence is being replaced with LED lamp, illumination load of each railroad vehicle has been compared. The comparison result shows that the reduction of power consumption is 43.34% before and after the change. Also it has been performed the economic evaluation.

  • 본 논문은 고정폐색구간에서 차량운전 특성과 속도패턴이 다양한 다종의 열차들이 동일선로에서 복합되어 고밀도 운행을 위한 방법으로, 신호현시에 대한 제반정보를 차상으로 전송 받아 기관실 신호표시반에 신호를 현시 하는 차상신호방식(Cab Signalling System)중에서, 선행열차의 위치, 선로조건 등 지상의 상태정보를 후속열차가 수신하여 열차 자신의 제동특성 등 차량정보와 비교 분석하여 제동거리를 계산하는 distance to go 방식으로 열차운전속도를 제어하는 ATP (Automatic Train Protection) 시스템을 제안하였다. 폐색구간별 고정된 신호속도단계가 부여되는 ATC(Automatic Train Control) 시스템에서는 운행패턴이 같은 단일차종의 열차만 운행하는 구간에서는 일정속도에 의한 폐색구간 분할로 구간내 distance to go 신호체계가 이루어지지만, 차종과 속도패턴이 서로 상이한 복합열차들의 운행구간에서는 안전거리 확보를 위하여 저속열차의 제동거리를 기준으로 폐색구간 분할 및 속도결정이 이루어지므로 ATP 방식보다 운행효율이 다소 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 이를 차량특성과 속도패턴이 다른 3개의 열차를 모델로 하여 열차별 감속도에 의한 제동특성을 ATC와 ATP 신호제어체계에 접목시켜 시뮬레이션을 하였다.

  • LIMs propelling the MAGLEV which has been developed in Korea have 3-series and 2-parallel connection, so that 6 LIMs per one vehicle are fed by one inverter. Thrust performance of the parallel-operated LIMs can be different from each other because of variant magnetic air gaps and electrical impedance. The thrust difference between the parallel LIMs cause a twist force on the vehicle. This paper proposes an algorithm to measure thrust of the parallel-operated LIMs. The method uses a digital signal processor(TMS320F2812), voltage and current sensors. As a result, thrust, flux and currents of the parallel-operated small LIMs which are manufactured in our laboratory are monitored by the developed measurement system.

  • Urban transit is a large scale complex system which combines rolling stocks, power supply, signal communications, tracks & stations. Therefore standardization is very important because it is difficult to find causes when failures or accidents occur. The standardization of urban transit increases safety and economical efficiency, and also gives passengers convenient and comfortable feeling. We, Korea Railroad Research Institute(KRRI), had finished the 1st phase study of urban transit standardization from '95 to '06. And 2nd phase study on rolling stock, information & communication, subway station has been performed from July '07. In this paper, we introduce what we study on urban transits standardization during coming 5 years. We expect our study will contribute to increase the efficiency of urban transit.

  • 철로를 구성하는 요소 중 하나인 선로전환기는 열차의 궤도를 변경하는 부품 중 하나로써, 열차가 주행 중에 인접한 다른 선로로 주행방향을 전환할 때 사용된다. 철로운영 지침서에 따르면 내구수명 10년 혹은 전환횟수 20만회를 선로전환기의 교체시점으로 권고하고 있으나, 실제 현장에서는 예산문제 등으로 인하여 잘 지켜지지 않는 것이 현실이다. 또한, 선로전환기에 관한 연구 문헌들에서도 선로전환기의 교체시기에 관한 학술적 실용적 차원의 연구 결과를 찾아볼 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 선로전환기의 전류 적분 값을 이용하여 선로전환기의 교체 시점을 결정하는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 실제 현장에서 선로전환기의 교체시기를 판별하는 유용한 지표로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.
