AbstractIn recent years, with the rapid development of high-speed railways (HSRs), power interruptions or disturbances in traction power supply systems have become increasingly dangerous. However, it is often impossible to detect these faults immediately through single-point monitoring or collecting data after accidents. To coordinate the power quality data of both traction power supply systems (TPSSs) and high-speed trains (HSTs), a monitoring and assessing system is proposed to access the power quality issues on HSRs. By integrating train monitoring, traction substation monitoring and data center, this monitoring system not only realizes the real-time monitoring of operational behaviors for both TPSSs and HSTs, but also conducts a comprehensive assessment of operational quality for train-network systems. Based on a large number of monitoring data, the field measurements show that this real-time monitoring system is effective for monitoring and evaluating a traction-network system.

Power quality is one of many issues affecting the traction power supply system. Prominent among the causes of poor power quality is voltage low-frequency oscillation (VLFO). In this paper, a fuzzy-based PI (FPI) controller to optimize the performance of the traction line-side converter (TLSC) and suppress the effect of VLFO is proposed. Firstly, the mathematical model of China’s railway high-speed five single-phase TLSC is developed, and then the FPI control unit is designed based on specific requirements. The fuzzy antecedent and consequence rules were generated based on the expert and previous knowledge of TLSC operation. An offline simulation of the proposed control scheme under different loads and parameters is conducted to verify the designed. To validate the model, the traction power supply system (TPS) is built on the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) real-time digital simulator (FPGA-RTDS), while the FPI control algorithm is load on modeling tech rapid control prototyping (RCP) real-time digital controller (RTDC). Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), and offline simulation studies between current decoupling (PI) control, sliding mode control (SMC), and the proposed control method confirms in addition to excellent dynamic performance; the proposed method can successfully suppress the effect of VLFO.

Upgrading of traction power supply systems will be required to transfer electrified railway lines to high-speed traffic. Coaxial cables and balancing transformers can be used as technical upgrading means. The article presents the results of computer simulation in the Fazonord software complex of the traditional 2x25 kV traction system, as well as systems with coaxial cables and Woodbridge symmetric transformers. Simulation results showed that the use of cables contributes to a significant increase in the level of voltage on current collectors of electric rolling stock. Use of modified Woodbridge transformers makes it possible to reduce the imbalance coefficient by the reverse sequence on high voltage buses of traction substations. However, the reduction is insignificant and depends on the modes of movement of trains in adjacent inter-station zones. The biggest positive effects occur in the integrated application of balancing transformers and coaxial cables.
