摘要

本篇論文討論到相較於以行動電話這類無線通訊的方式，在電氣火車系統中使用電力線通訊技術來傳送網路封包的優點。同時也建立了一個在具備移動接點(Mobile Contact)的電氣火車供電系統中，其電力線通訊的資料傳輸模型系統。在此系統中，使用軌道供電之模型火車作為電力線移動接點之載具，使該接點可在電力傳輸路徑之間移動。藉此來模擬電力線通訊應用於以軌道供電之電氣火車系統時的狀況（如：捷運系統和高速鐵路等），以及量測在多種不同的行進速度下，其傳輸品質和效能。最後將會提到電力線通訊應用於實際電氣火車系統時可能的問題。

This thesis discusses the benefits of using the powerline communication (PLC) as the technology to transmit the network packets instead of using the wireless communication system, such as cell phones, in an electrical railway system. An electrical railway system model with the data transmission using the powerline communication with mobile contacts in the power supply system is built. A track-powered model train module is used as the carrier of the mobile contact, which travels along the path of the power line. With this model, the simulation of the powerline communication applied to the electrical railway system, such as rapid transit system and high speed railways, is conducted, so are the measurements of data transmission and the performance evaluation under various speeds. In the end, the possible problems with the powerline communication being applied to the real world electrical railway systems are presented.
