Satellite Technology for Advanced Railway Signalling (STARS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2018,

The STARS project paves the way for the future EGNSS deployment in safety relevant railway applications. By evolving the highly developed and deployed ERTMS standard through the implementation of the satellite positioning functionality, it will be possible to reduce the cost of the future railway signalling systems, especially for lines with lower traffic density. The project deals with three main ...

Next Generation Train Control (NGTC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

The main scope of this Next Generation Train Control (NGTC) project is to analyse the commonality and differences of required functionality for mainline and urban lines and develop the convergence of both ETCS and CBTC systems, determining the level of commonality of architecture, hardware platforms, and system design that can be achieved. This will be accomplished by building on the experience of ...

SECurity of Railways against Electromagnetic aTtacks (SECRET)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

SECRET addresses the protection of railway infrastructure against EM attacks. Railway infrastructure is an attractive target for EM attacks, because of its familiarity and ease of access, with extended economic and security consequences.Today, the European rail network is evolving to harmonize the management system. This is reflected by new integrated technologies, adequate procedures and centrali ...

INtegrated European Signalling System (INESS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

"Due to the seamless guidance by rails, the railway system requires a dedicated signalling sub-system, whereby a major part of the functionality must be ensured and controlled on the infrastructure side. From a European perspective, the traditional signalling is one of the most conservative parts of the railway system strongly bound to the national traditions by all involved parties.Since 1990 the ...
