چکیده

This article describes a next-generation architecture for wireless communications, based on mobile phone carriers (GPRS) and broadband (WiFi), developed for the field of railways and allowing "train-to-earth" communications. This communication channel aims to complement traditional railway communication systems and its benefits make the deployment of new services, such as passenger oriented services, possible. Moreover, the result of this work is in itself a framework for the addition of new on-board applications that have the capacity to connect the trains with control points. As part of the architecture’s validation, currently underway, new digital services in the field of railways are being implanted. Keyword: Wireless Communications, Railway, WiFi, GPRS, Web Services

High-speed railway channel measurements and characterizations: a review

Wireless communication for high-speed railways (HSRs) that provides reliable and high data rate communication between the train and trackside networks is a challenging task. It is estimated that the wireless communication traffic could be as high as 65 Mbps per high-speed train. The development of such HSR communications systems and standards requires, in turn, accurate models for the HSR propa...

Indoor Non-directed Optical Wireless Communications - Optimization of the Lambertian Order

For an indoor non-directed line of sight optical wireless communication (NLOS-OWC) system we investigate the optimized Lambertian order (OLO) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We firstly derive an expression for the OLO from a conventional Lambertian LED model. Then, we analyze the indoor multi-cell NLOS-OWC channel characteristics including the optical power distribution and the multipath time ...
