The bad state of catenary is able to directly influence the power supply safety of traction power system. In this paper, four aspects on the catenary research of high-speed railway are reviewed in detail, namely the solution methods for catenary equilibrium state, the dynamic modeling methods of catenary, the non-contact detection methods of catenary, and the static and dynamic evaluation methods of catenary.

In view of the lack of dynamic assessment method for the catenary, the modern spectrum evaluation, timefrequency analysis, big data technology and their combi- nations will be the important means for future catenary evaluation.展开更多
