Abstract
Characterization of rolling stock from the perspective of exterior noise emission is typically carried out by following the technical procedures detailed in the international standard ISO 3095. Whilst this standard can be considered adequate for conventional rolling stock, the advent of very high speed railway transport has introduced a number of challenges in terms of the characterization of noise emission. The most relevant one is the multiplication of noise sources, with the substantial increase in aerodynamic noise emissions from particular zones in the train including: pantograph, pantograph recess, inter-coach gaps, front of train, connection cables, low-level turbulences, high level noise, etc. This paper proposes an improved methodology for acoustic characterization that although more difficult than the procedures described in the standard ISO 3095, is not as difficult as acoustical analysis based on microphone arrays.
