Abstract

Pantograph arcing caused by Off-line of pantograph-catenary (OLPC) will generate Electromagnetic disturbance (EMD), which will affect train control system and communication system. This paper proposes a simplified model of the train and pantograph to investigate propagation characteristics of EMD from OLPC in the viaduct scenario, containing attenuation law in transverse and longitudinal directions. As a result, the electric field strength of EMD from OLPC increases with distance in transverse direction from 10m to 30m in the viaduct scenario, which is different from the ground scenario. The fitting formulas are found to research the attenuation law at different frequency points. We get the conclusion that the limit and measurement distance is not applicable for the viaduct scenario in current standard. To prove this, measurement in the viaduct scenario is completed, and the plausible evidence to explain the result is discussed. These results are useful in the measurement of radiated emissions, on-board equipment layout and the research of standard in high-speed railway.
