Voltage Measurement and Control System for a Distributed Traction Power Supply System

Abstract

One of the problems to introduce the high-speed traffic is the need to improve the efficiency of the DC traction power supply system. The most promising method of improving this system is the transition to a distributed power supply system for traction load. During its implementation, there is a problem in measuring the voltage levels in the traction network to ensure the effective operation of the system. The article discusses the use of the sensory method for determining the voltage sensors location and checks the range of the antennas to provide redundancy of information transmission in a distributed traction power supply system.
