In order to reduce the wear of pantograph and catenary, prolong working time of the friction pair, and ensure the quality of current collection, a new type of pantograph active control strategy is designed. The strategy is based on the theory of friction and wears with electric current, control theory and micro-control technology, and is characterized by the dynamic wear test of catenary and the contact force control. The results show that the wear of the pantograph and catenary can be significantly reduced, the contact force fluctuation also can be effectively controlled, and the quality of the current collection of pantograph-catenary can be improved, while the active control strategy is applied.
