Pantograph-catenary interaction model comparison

The interaction between pantograph and catenary is the present problematic of current collection in electrical railways. Current collection enhancement is a key requirement for train speed-up in railway industry. Several models have been proposed in this sense to investigate the dynamic response of pantograph-overhead contact line. This paper presents a review of different pantograph and catenary models. More attention is paid to catenary models in order to evaluate its implementation on a real-time system. The accuracy is compared based on European Standard EN50318–2000 and the computation time between all realized models is also discussed.
