Abstract
The sources of wayside noise for the high -speed train are the aerodynamic noise, rolling noise and power unit noise. We should know the major source to control noise radiated from train. In this paper, we present the test results on the wayside noise and the vibration of the rail/sleeper during the passing of Korean Train Express (KTX). It turns out that the major noise sources for KTX are the rolling noise and power unit noise at 300 km/h. Generally, the noise attenuation with distance is independent of train speed. However, the test results show that in the near field the noise levels decrease by about 5~6 ㏈(A) per doubling of distance at speed in the range of 50~120 km/h and about 3~4 ㏈(A)/d.d at 300 km/h.
