  5. 24. Pre-study of new electrical coupling between train cars

    University essay from Signaler och System

    Author : Emanuel Wahlqvist; [2012]
    Keywords : Multiplexer; Train coupler; Electric coupler; Train signals;

    Abstract : This study is meant to be an initial study of the possibility to replace the discrete control signal wires over the electrical coupler between train cars with a data bus system. The reason for this is that the electrical coupler is large and heavy due to the high amount of contacts it contains. READ MORE
