Development of an FPGA-based Online Condition Monitoring System for Railway Catenary Application
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to develop a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based online condition monitoring system for sensor network applications in railway catenary systems. The system is designed to perform in IP network-based wireless environments and is capable of storing data in a live wire state at 25 kV. A real-time controller, chassis (including a reconfigurable FPGA), and several I/O modules are used in the condition monitoring system. To check the validity of our approach for the intended application, we monitored temperature, vibration, strain, and displacement in the overhead wire of a high-speed catenary system in Korea.

Wheelset Condition Monitoring based on pass-by vibration signals
Apart from regular wheel wear such as decreasing wheel diameters and reduced flange thicknesses and heights, wheel flats (WF) and oval wheels (or OOR, Out-Of-Roundness) are the most common wheelset problems for railway vehicles. Within the FP7 Research Project “Saferail”, APT has developed an innovative wheelset monitoring system so-called “Wheel flat and Out of Roundness Monitoring (WORM) syst...

متن کاملApplication of Multivariate Control Charts for Condition Based Maintenance
Condition monitoring is the foundation of a condition based maintenance (CBM). To relate the information obtained from the condition monitoring to the actual state of the system, it is usually required a stochastic model. On the other hand, considering the interactions and similarities that exist between CBM and statistical process control (SPC), the integrated models for CBM and SPC have been ...
متن کاملModel-based Condition Monitoring for Railway Vehicle Systems
Although modelling techniques for railway vehicle dynamics are well-developed, much of the development in railway vehicle condition monitoring has relied on the knowledge-based techniques where no analytical system model is employed and only qualitative or empirical system knowledge are used for fault diagnosis. In this paper, the model-based approach is proposed as an alternative for railway v...
متن کاملDisplacement monitoring of a Long-Span Arch Railway Bridge using Digital Image Correlation (DIC)
There is an escalating demand for condition monitoring enhancement of transport infrastructures worldwide. Bridges are of vital importance in transportation infrastructure and need such monitoring. In this research, a non-contact vision-based technique called Digital Image Correlation (DIC) was used to calculate the bridge displacements. A high frame rate camera with 4K capability was used for ...
