Projects for the development of the transport system of the Russian Federation involve the introduction of advanced optical technologies in the infrastructure of high-speed modern transport systems in the context of the implementation of un- manned maintenance technologies. The article presents the following areas of research carried out by the authors: — organization of high-speed super-long single-span trunk communication lines without intermediate allocation of digital channels and paths laid in areas with limited access by the maintenance personnel in areas with no infrastructure (underwater obstacles, mountainous terrain, desert and swampy areas). The authors of the article highlighted the main factors influencing the design features of high-speed ultra-long single-span communication lines; — application of photonic switching (PS) technology in high-speed backbone communication networks to ensure operational logical reconfiguration of channel structures and digital paths. Within the framework of this direction of research, the authors have proposed methods for calculating the probabilities of the occurrence of internal blockages in various structures of PS based on the use of the method of mathematical induction in order to synthesize PS structures of a given capacity; — development of effective technologies for remote monitoring of the health of transport infrastructure facilities using passive optical transmission lines. Within the framework of this line of research, the authors analyze the features of the physical prop- erties of optical fibers used as a distributed sensor on the basis of which an integrated system can be built that can measure various physical parameters, such as vibration, deformation, temperature and other parameters.

Subject Russia's rail and road infrastructure. Significance As the world's largest country, Russia faces unique challenges in developing its transport infrastructure. Fiscal constraints since 2014-15 have prevented the necessary investment, and the continuing deterioration in connectivity between regions hampers economic activity and amplifies existing social problems. Impacts Investing in transit corridors should strengthen Russia's position in the global supply chain. The two-year delay to the Moscow-Kazan high-speed railway demonstrates the difficulties of qualitative improvements. Underdeveloped urban and inter-city transport systems impede labour mobility and productivity. Initiatives to transfer road maintenance costs to final users will meet with resistance against 'taxing' a public good.

The North of Russia in the short term remains not captured high-speed movement. Such situation can be rectified by application magnetic and levitation technologies, and so string trestle technologies. However, the careful ecological and economic reasoning, and also adaptation of constructive elements and technologies to North conditions has to precede use of such technologies. For development of the railway high-speed communication it is necessary to create rings of the high-speed movement. Thus the cellular network structure which is much more effective existing treelike, taking place in the Komi Republic, the Arkhangelsk and Murmansk areas will be initially formed. Container message of trestle type Ivdel - Indiga about 1100 km long can become possible application of magnetic and levitation technology in the north of Russia. From Ivdel the container highway can be continued in the southern direction to border with China. At the organization of the high-speed movement it is necessary to divide passenger and cargo transport streams. If to execute passenger modules in the form of individual vehicles (four-five-seater), elements of infrastructure will be less expensive. The sizes and loading capacity of containers for high-speed transportations can be also reduced. Developers of string transport systems actively study questions of design of transport modules of various mission, creation of low-cost transport infrastructure. In the conditions of the North of Russia development of transport system which would combine advantages of magnetic and levitation and string transport is of interest. Stability of such system can be provided when using effect of «a magnetic potential hole». Implementation of large transport projects of the high-speed movement in the Russian Federation can promote strengthening international cooperation and be carried out on its basis.

Based on the difference of thermal expansion coefficient between Si and Ge, low-intensity tensile stress can be introduced into Ge epitaxial layer on Si substrate. S-Ge/Si semiconductor (as known as low tensile strained Ge grown on Si substrate) has a higher carrier mobility when compared with unstrained-Ge or Si material, so that s-Ge/Si is appropriate for the production of high-speed circuit. At the same time, transformation from indirect bandgap semiconductor Ge into Pseudo-Direct bandgap semiconductor (which is also called PD-Ge) will be happen after s-Ge/Si is heavy doped, which makes LED produced of PD-Ge material perform a higher luminous efficiency because the radiative recombining probability of carriers in PD-Ge material is greatly improved compared with unstrained one. Taking the advantages referred of s-Ge/Si into account, s-Ge/Si has the potential to PD-Ge monolithic optoelectronic integration. Carrier mobility of the semiconductor is one of the key physical parameters during the design and simulation of PD-Ge monolithic optoelectronic integrated system. While as far as the authors are aware, carrier mobility model of s-Ge/Si is still rarely reported to date. In view of that all above, based on the E-k relation in both conduction band and valence band of s-Ge/Si material, the analytical models of physical parameters in energy band are established, and the models are verified by experiments. Then the s-Ge/Si carrier models are further established based on our band structure model, and the Monte Carlo method is used to verify our s-Ge/Si carrier mobility model. The quantificational results of our paper will help understand s-Ge/Si material physics and provide an important theoretical basis for the design of PD-Ge monolithic optoelectronic integration.

Magnetic suspension in high-speed ground transport systems is an alternative to the rail wheel. The successful solution to the development of high-speed ground transport is largely determined by the creation of operationally efficient linear motors, the main task of which is to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and create tractive force to ensure the movement of the crew according to a given program in the range of operating speeds. The article investigates linear asynchronous motors with longitudinal closure of magnetic flux of single-ended design. As a result of investigation of physical processes in linear motors caused by edge problems it was found that the cause of the transverse edge effect is the finite width dimensions of the reactive bus, the change of which causes closure of eddy currents within the active area of inductor, leads to weakening of magnetic field in the central zone and to reduction of tractive force. The discrepancy between the calculated and experimental indicators of physical processes in linear asynchro- nous motors due to significant idealization of mathematical models led to the development of a three-dimensional theory, brought to the calculation programs. The developed calculation program of electromechanical characteristics of linear induction motors with inductor and reactive bus layout, as well as their geometrical and physical parameters allows to determine the necessary integral motor characteristics in the form of a levitation function.

Research objective: studies of economic and transport infrastructure development in the Arctic and Northern Territories of Russia. Research methodology: analysis of transport infrastructure in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the types of railways used in Russia. Results: economic development of any region is proportional to the development of the road transport infrastructure and logistics. When a conventional railway is operated in the Arctic conditions, it is not always possible to maintain a cargo turnover that would ensure its efficient use, and transshipment from one mode of transport to another is very problematic. A new type of railway is proposed, i.e. a light railway. Conclusions: the proposed new type of transport offers all the main advantages of narrow gauge railroads (high speed of construction, efficiency, etc.) and helps to eliminate their main disadvantage, i.e. the need for transloading when moving from a narrow gauge to the conventional one with the width of 1520 mm, along with a significant reduction in capital costs.
