Electric railway system driving the electric cars using power from catenary has been secured by performance of stable tracking between pantograph and catenary. The performance of the power collecting of pantograph is the one of the most important skills for high-speed train speed. The first Korea high-speed train(KTX) is 20 cars in one train set. In the meantime, collecting capability of single pantograph collector at one train set was confirmed through evaluation of the performance and the stability test. However, more research is needed to build for a stable collecting capability of coupled Korea's KTX-II High-speed system which is developed in Korea. In this study, actual vehicle test of coupled KTXSanchon was made to analyzing the data presented by the dynamic nature of catenary and pantograph, and the interface characteristics.

In this paper, the series chopper based power train for electric vehicle is proposed for aiming the increase of one battery charge driving distance. Both the motor test bench based experiments and the chassis dynamo based experiments are tested and then analyzed for EV driving performance that the proposed power train with SAZZ chopper and Quasi-PAM control scheme is compared with or without the series chopper. It is confirmed through two kinds of experimental analyses that the series chopper power train for EV can be useful to extend the driving distance if the high efficiency and the low weight of chopper are satisfied.

경부고속열차(KTX) 차량컴퓨터제어장치(OBCS : On Board Computer System)는 네트워크 통신을 이용하여 차량내 각 종 전장품의 동작상태 감시와 운행명령 및 열차제어, 차량의 유지보수, 승무원의 운전업무를 지원하는 장치로써 KTX의 핵심장치이다. 이 장치는 TGV 제작사양과 프랑스의 고속열차 운영방식에 종속되어 특화된 시스템으로 제작되었으므로 실질적인 기술이전이 어려운 상태이다. 그렇기때문에 KTX 국내도입 후 운영상 요구되는 기능개선 및 자체적인 유지보수, 각 종 전장품(추진제어장치, 보조전원장치, 출입문제어장치 등)의 국산화 교체시 대부분의 인터페이스 신호가 차량컴퓨터제어장치(OBCS)와 연계되어 있어 많은 어려움이 수반되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 KTX 차량컴퓨터제어장치의 기능분석 및 주변장치(기관사 콘솔, 여객정보시스템, 고장현시장치, 각종 전장품 등)와의 상호 인터페이스 정보분석을 통해 KTX-OBCS 국산화 개발을 함으로써 KTX 운영상 요구되는 기능개선 및 유지보수 효율화에 기여하고, 더 나아가 고속열차제어 및 전장품 분야에서 선진 외국기술의 종속을 탈피하여 기술자립화를 이루고자 한다.

TMED(Transmission Mounted Electric Device) parallel hybrid configuration can realize EV(Electric Vehicle) mode by disengaging the clutch between an engine and a transmission-mounted motor to improve efficiencies of low load driving and regenerative braking. In the EV mode, however, jerk can be induced since there are insufficient damping elements in the drive-train. Though the jerk gives demoralizing influence upon driving comport, adding a physical damper is not applicable due to constraints of the layout. This study suggests the jerk reduction control, composed of active damping method and torque profiling method, to suppress the jerk without hardware modification. The former method creates a virtual damper by generating absorbing torque in the opposite direction of the oscillation. The latter method reduces impulse on the mated gear teeth of the drive-train by limiting the gradient of traction torque when the direction of the torque is reversed. To validate the effectiveness of the suggested strategy, a series of vehicle tests are carried out and it is observed that the amplitude of the oscillation can be reduced by up to 83%.

The most important thing to secure safety and reliability of railway vehicles is to verify performance characteristics of equipments, and related companies or research institutes had many efforts to verify performances and functions of equipments synthetically and efficiently. KHST(Korean High Speed Train) has been developed by KRRI (Korea Railroad Research Institute). An electric railway system is composed of high-tech subsystems, among which main electric equipment such as transformers and converter are critical components determining the performance of rolling stock. We developed a measurement system for on-line test and evaluation of performances of KHST. The measurement system is composed of software part and hardware part. Perfect interface between multi-users is possible. A new method to measure temperature was applied to the ]measurement system. By using the system, fault diagnosis and performance evaluation of electric equipment in Korean High Speed Train was conducted during test running.

In DC 1500V electric traction substations, diode rectifiers are commonly used to supply stable DC power with electric train sets. However, it operates in the first quadrant of the voltage-current plane and thus needs regenerative inverters which transfer the surplus regenerative power caused by regenerative braking of electric train sets into the grid. In order to select the proper capacity and installation position of regenerative inverter, it needs to investigate the consumed and regenerative energy of the electric traction substations in advance. This paper presents an analysis of regenerative energy in two substations operating in Seoul line 2 and Kwangju line 1. DC line voltage and feeder currents are measured for a day to calculate consumed and regenerative power for four feeders. We calculated an amount of regenerative energy consumed in other feeders and estimated the cost reduction in energy consumption due to the reuse of regenerative energy.

Recently, The TCN(Train Communication Network} as the distributed control systems for electric vehicles, which is the international standard of the intra vehicle communication, actively recognizes variations and supports reconfiguration of the train network when a vehicle is separated or recombined. The technique of reconfiguration to take variety and interoperability of a vehicle constitution is used when the vehicle constitution is changed. At the time, each node making up vehicle network shares the information about the variation of vehicle constitutions and the state of nodes. In the hierarchical TCN structure, an exchange of data becomes available as a work to transmit information between components is performed at the node playing a role of gateway. This paper proposes a protocol to transmit the information of the train reconfiguration. The protocol gives an application to renew a list for transmitting information and to perform the transmission that can guarantee periodic and non-periodic data transmission between nodes when the network nodes changed by a variation of the network state are reconfigured. If use this protocol, can use functions that are offered in the electric railcar at the same time that composition of vehicles is completed without delay. And when driver of the electric railcar inspect before running of vehicles, can confirm state of vehicles visually through monitor in driver's room.

Induced voltage causing disturbances on the communication lines of electric train is dealt with when the AT power supply system is employed. In the paper we obtain an algorithm to calculate the induced voltages on the communication lines in the AT system and an algorithm for the induced current in case of the accident that the line falls to the ground. These algorithms are developed to a package of computer programs and their validity was checked on a simulated system.
