Abstract

Computer based data acquisition system for EMC experimentation in Italian Railways F. Cipollone, E. Fedeli & A. Fumi Ferrovie dello Stato S.p.A., Divisione Infrastruttura, Italy. Abstract New electrical and electronic technological applications in power supply and signalling railway systems will result in the dramatic increase, in the near future, of electromagnetic complexity of the whole infrastructure and vehicle environment. Thus, preliminary studies of the compatibility of new technologies with the pre-existing installations have become more and more important from both a technical and economical point of view. For this reason, during the last year, FS S.p.A. has set up a field test measurement campaign to study EMC problems related to interaction between 25 kV - 50 Hz power supply system, adopted in the new high speed lines of Italian Railways, and the traditional railway network supplied with 3 kV dc, particularly in the cases of interconnection or close proximity
