As the conventional eddy current type rail displacement sensor has a small distance (liftoff) from the railhead top surface to a sensor, there is the possibility that a sensor wakes up trouble and malfunction for a collision with the snow and the gravel. As the conventional triangle coil has low Q level, a change of the impedance to depend on rail displacement for when I raise a liftoff is not provided enough. Therefore, the problem that the detection precision of the rail displacement falls to occurs. In this article, I improved a Q level by becoming examination, the high frequency of the drive circuit of the coil structure and enabled measuring it at 50mm that was conventional double size by a liftoff.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
