Since the KTX starts operation in 2004, Korean railway system has sustained the highest safety and accuracy. In order to keep this achievement, the LTE based wireless communication system has been introduced for mobile communications and signal transmission. railway, and activities for its standardization are on the way. Railway communication system will be used as part of national safety net through interworking with safety network. This paper reviews the contents of standards and technologies in an LTE-based railway communication(LTE-R) system, and the items to be standardized to improve operational efficiency of the railway system by building a national railway radio communication system.

In this paper, an effect on power conversion unit in high-speed railway vehicle by loss of contact between a catenary system and pantograph suppling electrical power to high-speed railway vehicle are investigated. One of the most important needs accompanied by increasing the speed of high-speed railway vehicle is reduced that arc phenomenon by loss of contact brings out EMI. in case of high-speed railway vehicle using electrical power, as comparison with diesel rolling stock, PLD(Power Line Disturbance) such as harmonic, transient voltage and current, EMI, dummy signal injection etc usually occur. To analysis the effect on loss of contact, it is necessary electrical modeling system between the contact line and the pantograph according to the loss of contact. Therefore analytical model of a contact line and a pantograph is constructed to simulate the behaviour of loss of contact. The reliability of the modeling system is verified by simulation implementation on kinds of loss of contact.

This paper develops an real-time expert system for the electronic interlocking system. it obtains the higher safety by determining the railway interlocking strategy in order to prevent trains from colliding, and derailing in the viewpoint of veteran expert, considering the situation of station in real-time. The expert system determines the real-time interlocking strategy by confirming the interlocking relationships among signal facilities based on the interlocking knowledge base from input information such as signal, points, and it is implemented as the rule-based system in order to represented accurately and effectively the interlocking relationships. Especially in case of emergency the function which determines the rational route coordinating with IIKBAG on the workstation is designed in order to minimize the spreading effect. It is implemented in C computer language for the purpose of the implementation of the inference engine using the dynamic memory allocation technique, the build and interface of the station structure database. And, the validity of the built expert system is proved by simulating the diversity cases which may occur in the real system for the typical station model.

Typical railway systems are composed of the various sub-systems, such as tracks, structures, electricity supplying systems, signal systems and vehicles. The roles of the sub-systems are clarified in the railway regulations in terms of their whole life cycle, as like design, operation and disposal stages. The regulations express clearly the basic specifications and requirements that need to accomplish their own performance and also state the standards and procedures for the normal operations and emergency conditions. In this paper the current railway regulation systems are analyzed and average revision periods are presented as the results of the analysis on revision history of railway safety regulations. This paper also presents the requirements for national safety standards based on Railway Safety Act and the necessity of application of system computer aided system engineering (CASE) tool for the improvement of legislation tasks. By exemplifying the cases of high speed rail system and Japanese cases that had developed softwares for supporing regulation revision management, the methodologies was studied for reconstruction of railway safety regulation system. As the results, it was presented such as the considerations for actual implementation and systematic safety regulation revision.

The railway signalling system plays an essential role in the safe and efficient train operation as serving control functions of train operation intervals and train routes. The reliability and safety of the system are very important because the failure of the railway signalling system can lead to train collision or derailment as well as train operation stop. Until now, in railway signalling system the conventional wayside signal mode has been used generally. There are, however, the risk of accidents such as human mistakes caused by that the driver identifies the signal lamp status and controls train speed with the naked eye. It is also necessary to refurbish the obsolete system. Thereby, It is being effective that the onboard signal mode has been recently introduced and applied in order to transmit the speed control information to train by using the computer and communication equipment. It is necessary to switch over the system in a way while providing passengers with an operation service to replace the obsolete signal system. In this paper, we verify the cases through trial assessment which are solved by the way of adding specific functionalities in the problems of interference among the procedure of switch-over processes and a serial of processes for system verification while a train is operated in the new system in parallel to the existing system.

In high speed railway system, LTE(Long Term Evolution) based LTE-R(LTE-Railray) mobile technology is used to supply various control signal required for safty operation of train. In this paper, railway communication technology be used in railway communication system based on LTE-R is investigated in focused on application services. Standardization trends for LTE-R technology are also considered. Results of this study can be used as basic data for research and development of LTE-R and railway mobile communication.

The main aim of the paper is the study of the surge voltages in electric railway signal security system. Hence these studies will provide means of introducing a suitable protective device insulating transformer. This influences the surge voltage interrupting capacity using surge arresters and bypass capacitors. This circuit can be used for investigating surge phenomenon in electric railway signal security system. In this paper a insulating transformer has been introduced for the reduction of surge voltages in the above circuit model and performance evaluation.

Recently many new subway lines and light rail lines are demanded to build as CBTC system for advanced transportation needs. Already several lines are being installed and some other are planned this days. In early 2008, the first korean CBTC project, Bundang Line Intelligent Train Control System was finished successfully then it showed that many advantage of its functionalities to demonstrate. Nowaday, the technology of CBTC in Korea is not standing alone by itself yet, even though a lot of localization was done last decade include ATS (Automatic Train Supervision) and Radio Communication and manufactures and installations, because the core equipment of CBTC is rely on oversea technologies of major railway signal companies. KRRI has been preparing to develop the core equipment of CBTC (wayside ATP and onboard ATO/ATP) with other 14 local railway signal companies. Now they have consisted two consortiums to develop the core equipment by themselves. In this paper, I will mention about how we should focus on the output for viewpoint of interpretabilities between the two groups and review the case study of front developers efforts considering to standardizations we should be following.
