With the informatization of high-speed railway, there are new challenges for train dispatching system and control system. Focusing on railway specialty and new requirements, and drawing on ZTE experience in R&D, ZTE has developed an innovative GSM-R solution for railway network operators to escort for the railway operation.

ZTE Innovative GSM-R Solution

• Comprehensive Reliability Solution: Unified BTS and CN platform is approved in large-scale commercialization. By employing dual-layer network, loop link and board backup technology, the comprehensive reliability solution provides reliability protection in all-level such as network level, link level and board level.
• High-speed Mobility Solution: ZTE proprietary AFC algorithm and high-speed handover algorithm meet the communication needs for the train at 500 km/h speed.
• Innovative Tunnel Coverage Solution: ZTE distributed BTS and multi-RRU co-cell solution can be used for tunnel coverage instead of traditional repeater solution, and this innovative solution provides better signal quality and unified network management.

Customer Value

• Safety Operation: Comprehensive reliability solution provides safe and reliable communication support for train dispatching system and control system, and guarantees the operation safety.
• Operational Efficiency: Advanced GSM-R communication platform meets the present and future telecom requirements of high-speed train, shortens the time intervals, improves train quasi-point rate, and enhances the operation efficiency.
• Low Cost: Distributed BTS speeds up project deployment, and unified network management system saves O&M cost. TCO then can be reduced effectively.

Success Story

• Russia Commercial Test Case: ZTE provided end-to-end GSM-R solution, and the rapid network deployment and product outstanding performance was highly recognized by Russian Railways.
• BJTU IOT: ZTE passed the IOT test in Beijing Jiaotong University and was approved by China Railway Ministry. It showed ZTE GSM-R system complied with the international standard and had powerful inter-connection capability.

ZTE innovative GSM-R system can quickly respond to customer demands, and solve railway communication technical problems such as reliability, high speed mobility, and weak field coverage to build a reliable, safe, advanced railway communication network. ZTE GSM-R will help the modernization and informatization of the railway communication.
