Reduction of Pantograph Noise of High-Speed Trains
Journal of Mechanical Systems for Transportation and Logistics, 2010 In order to reduce the pantograph noise that greatly contributes to overall noise, we have developed two types of low-noise pantograph. Further noise reduction was realized by the effects of attenuation of the pantograph noise insulation plate and by using only one pantograph per trainset.
