To support data services for urban rail transit that includes train traffic control, train maneuvering, onboard Passenger Information Service (PIS), and video monitoring, Huawei offers an LTE-based solution that overcomes the limitations of previous technologies:
- Legacy communications systems run on separate networks, resulting in high costs and complex Operation and Maintenance (O&M)
- Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) signals are vulnerable to interference
- A Wi-Fi AP’s range is only 219 yds (200m), so trains moving at 75 mph (120 km/h) cause frequent handovers, degrading user experience
Huawei’s LTE solution eliminates these issues with dual-network communications on dedicated frequencies; unified long-distance train-ground communications; and multiple services over a unified transmission network.
Unify communications with high-redundancy wireless coverage
Huawei’s LTE-based solution ensures reliable communications using a dual-network architecture and redundancy designs at the system, device, and board levels. The use of dedicated-frequency LTE networks and technologies such as Interference Rejection Combining (IRC) and Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) enhances the network’s anti-interference capability.
Unified train-ground communications simplify maintenance
Huawei’s LTE network provides long-distance coverage, reducing the number of devices that are needed in complex environments such as tunnels. A uniform network management system for network and terminals simplifies the system O&M. In addition, no network devices are needed in tunnels, further simplifying network O&M. A single network supports multiple services, including CBTC, PIS, trunking, and CCTV. The LTE solution ensures network reliability and QoS of critical services using multiple schemes such as radio link budget, 9-level QoS, and a backbone transport network protection switching time less than 50 ms.
LTE networks carry multiple services for high-speed trains
The Huawei Mass Transit eLTE Multi-Service Unified Carrier Solution offers a highly reliable train-ground convergent communication platform supporting high-speed trains. The LTE train-ground communication system supports 80 Mbit/s throughput for trains traveling at speeds as high as 268 mph (431 km/h). With this solution, a unified network carries multiple services, improving operating efficiency and reducing both network construction and O&M costs.
