Expected results
- Development of a future proof telecom architecture including all necessary network elements, based on 5G SA, IMS/SIP Core, MCX and more generally on 3GPP standards, and conform to all FRMCS Specifications from UIC, 3GPP and ETSI.
- The end-to-end architecture must include pre-commercial versions of onboard equipment (TOBA, Telecom On-Board Architecture) and of the corresponding Trackside Gateway ensuring the relevant management of telecom streams, independently of carried services, and then facilitating the bearer flexibility of the solution.
- Testing of key functions” with essential operational applications such as voice, REC, ETCS level 2 with supporting functions KMS and PKI, ATO over ETCS (GoA 1/2).
- Development of associated test specifications and test plans.
- Deliver technical inputs for Migration strategy to move from GSM-R to FRMCS.
- Validate the capacity of the systems to meet KPIs and Fault Configuration Accounting Performance Security (FCAPS) in order to estimate and predict service behaviour.
- Provide feedback to specifications (refinement of possible gaps and input to future specifications.
