In this study, a method for detecting the railway surface defects called “squats” using the ABA (Axle Box Acceleration) measurement of trains was proposed. ABA prototype design, implementation, and field tests were conducted to derive and verify the results. The field test was performed using a proven precision measurement system, and the measured data were signal-processed using a Matlab program. The algorithm used to determine the position of the squats was developed based on wavelet spectrum analysis. This study was verified for a section of a domestic general line and, following field verification for the section, squats was detected with a hit rate of about 88.2%. The main locations where the squats occurred were the rail welds and the joint section, and it was confirmed that in some sections, unsupported sleepers occurred at the locations where the squats occurred.
