Multi Service Radio Communication for MAGLEV and Train Systems

Evolution of system concepts is mostly driven by new requirements. Particularly in public transportation systems increasing demand for passenger communication as well as for safety/security purposes is characteristic. Broadband radio communication can provide the services for these requirements. The RBS network of the evolutionary TELEFUNKEN maglev radio system is IP-based. A fast and seamless RBS handover for instant routing of the radio link to a vehicle is implemented there. The system uses a digital modem with the possibility of instantaneous adaptation of the modulation scheme to propagation conditions. To handle rapid changing conditions in train communications, fast signalization with minimum protocol overhead is crucial for throughput optimization. By using decision criteria depending on the required quality of service, a high reliability is maintained.
