Measurement method for frequencies below 150 kHz for approval of railway vehicles
The cost for testing new vehicles can be up to 100,000 Euros. This cost can significantly reduce by a suitable measurement method for assessing the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) with the railway network.
In addition, the Swedish Transport Administration's infrastructure still uses signal technology with frequencies below 150 kHz. However, due to uncertainties in the measurements, this frequency range has omitted from the current standard. Not measuring within this frequency range significantly impairs the possibilities for a good assessment of the impact of new vehicles on older technology in the infrastructure of the Swedish Transport Administration.
