26、ting on a specific route does not interfere with train detection systems installed on this route. Compatibility problems between train detection systems and rolling stock are a significant obstacle to cross-acceptance of rolling stock in Europe. Unfortunately it is not possible to establish general

27、rules for the maximum levels of interference allowed, valid for every country. This is due to the great diversity of rolling stock, power supply and return current systems, and train detection systems installed in Europe. This diversity leads to consideration of the problem of compatibility of rolli

28、ng stock and train detection systems for specific routes to avoid unnecessarily restrictive specifications. Compatibility is determined by both physical and electromagnetic considerations. With regard to EMC, the need is not for general values for maximum levels of interference permitted, but for co

29、nvenient methods by which to specify the level of interference allowed for operation on specific routes. Interference may be caused by rail currents, electromagnetic fields, differential voltage between axles, as shown in Figure 1: Rail currenttransfer functionsElectromagnetic fieldtransfer function

30、sTrack circuit OthersWheeldetectorFeederstationFigure 5 Sources of electromagnetic interference In practice, the susceptibility of the system is determined by the sensitivity of individual components of the system, the application of the components, i.e. the configuration of the system. Therefore th

31、e problems concerning track circuits and axle counters or wheel detection systems will be looked at separately.

32、hods to conduct tests on the “real railway” are proposed. Modelling enables worst-case conditions to be simulated. In addition, particular test sites are used because, from experience, they are known to provide the test evidence required. Then, taking account of the experience of the railways, it is

33、 possible to establish a general method for determining the susceptibility of train detection systems, described in this European Standard. Before measuring the interference level on rolling stock, a sufficient knowledge of the electric circuit diagram of the power equipment is required, e.g. switch

34、ing frequencies of on-board static converters, type of regulation used for power converters, resonant frequency of each filter, operating limits under high and low supply voltages, downgraded modes of operation etc. BS EN 50238:2003EN 50238:2003 (E)BS EN 50238-1:2003EN 50238-1:2003 (E) - 6 - 7 1 Sco

35、pe The scope of this European Standard is to describe a procedure for mutual acceptance of rolling stock to run over specific routes. It describes the methods of measurement of interference currents, the methods of measurement of the susceptibility of train detection systems, the characterisation of

36、 traction power supplies and the procedure for acceptance. The result of the acceptance procedure is a structured justification document referred to as a “compatibility case”, which documents the evidence that the conditions for compatibility have been satisfied. This European Standard is not genera

37、lly applicable to those combinations of rolling stock, traction power supply and train detection system which were accepted as compatible prior to the issue of this European Standard. However, as far as is reasonably practicable, this European Standard may be applied to modifications of rolling stoc

38、k, traction power supply or train detection systems which may affect compatibility. The scope of the compatibility case is restricted to the demonstration of compatibility of rolling stock with a train detection systems characterisation (e.g. gabarit). Radio based signalling systems are not within t
