Evaluation of the Rationality of Using GSM-R Modems of the New Series

Abstract

The article highlights the problematic issues related to the appearance of a new specialized GSM-R modem TRC-5RME (ext)* H on the market, the serial production of which was launched in 2020 by the German company TRIORAIL, which is one of the leaders in the European market for the production of specialized equipment for railway rolling stock. Would it be rational to use the new TRC-5rme (ext)* H modem to solve the tasks assigned to the rolling stock communication equipment? What major changeswill already existing solutions that have been used for a long time on the railway transport of different countries undergo? To identify the factors contributing to the adoption of such a decision, a comparative analysis of the characteristics of modems will be carried out. Special attention will be paid to the speed of information transmission and indicators of the reliability of the communication channel. The design features of the modem of the new series will also be analyzed, a preliminary assessment of the integration of the TRC-5rme (ext) H modem into existing communication equipment manufactured by enterprises will be carried out.
