Highly resilient FRMCS/5G design for future rail operation

Nokia and Digitale Schiene Deutschland have analysed various architectural options and features available in 5G and their suitability for new use-cases in railway operations. Read this whitepaper for more information.

Railway operations are mission critical in nature. Resiliency therefore plays a key role in enhancing safety as well as minimising service interruptions.

In a collaborative project between Nokia and Digitale Schiene Deutschland (DSD), the organisations analysed various architectural options and features available in 5G and their suitability for the new use-cases envisioned by DSD. For instance, the organisations explored the impact of the various fronthaul split options on railway infrastructure, CAPEX and OPEX. Additionally, redundancy concepts for track side transport network, edge and cloud system, orchestration and security were also considered. Find out more in this whitepaper.
