[0046] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 , this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0047] 25Hz phase-sensitive track circuit traction current imbalance monitoring system, including:

[0048] Current acquisition module 100: This module is located at the power transmission and receiving ends of the rail and is used to collect the traction current signal in the rail in real time. The current acquisition module 100 includes several current transformers, which are coupled to the secondary side of the choke transformer to sense the unbalanced current and convert it into a voltage signal.

[0049] Several signal conditioning modules 200 are respectively configured at the rear stage of each current transformer, and include a preamplifier unit 201, a bandpass filter unit 202, a postamplifier unit 203, and an analog-to-digital converter unit 204, which are electrically connected in sequence. The preamplifier unit 201 is used to initially amplify the signal, the bandpass filter unit 202 is used to filter out interference signals in the traction current signal, the postamplifier unit 203 is used to further amplify the filtered signal, and the analog-to-digital converter unit 204 is used to convert the analog signal into a digital signal.

[0050] Data processing module 300: configured in the post-stage of several signal conditioning modules 200, including data processing chip U8, used to calculate the amplitude difference and phase difference of the two-rail current signals. The amplitude difference is obtained by calculating the peak value of the two-rail current, and the phase difference is calculated by Fourier transform. The amplitude difference and phase difference are compared with the internal preset amplitude difference threshold and phase difference threshold, and an imbalance index is generated. The imbalance index is generated using weighting, and different weights are assigned to the amplitude difference and phase difference, for example, both are 50%;

[0051] The current acquisition module 100 senses the unbalanced current of the rail in real time and converts it into a voltage signal. Combined with the multi-level processing of the signal conditioning module 200, the data processing module 300 finally calculates the amplitude difference and phase difference of the current on the two rails and generates an imbalance index. The overall process greatly improves the signal-to-noise ratio and accuracy of the signal, providing high-quality data support for the precise monitoring of the unbalanced state of the traction current in the track circuit, solving the problem of misjudgment caused by poor signal quality in traditional monitoring, ensuring the accuracy of train occupancy detection, and improving railway driving safety.

[0052] In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-6 The preamplifier unit 201 includes resistors R1, R2, R3, R4, an operational amplifier U1, and R5. The operational amplifier U1 and its surrounding components constitute a differential amplifier circuit, which can initially amplify the weak initial voltage signal, thereby enhancing the effective signal strength in the early stages of signal processing and preventing the signal from being covered by noise during subsequent filtering and conversion.
