Overview
Background & policy context:
To complement the work carried out in the two projects called EIRENE and MORANE the UIC started a new project, called ERTMS/GSM-R to take account that ERTMS is a system, formed by three elements ::
- GSM-R as a radio telecommunication system and bearer system for ETCS
- ETCS as the future European train control system
- The future Traffic Management Layer, which was conceived during the EU project Optirails and has since been developed into a working system in the Europtirails project.
Objectives:
The new ERTMS/GSM-R project combined experiences from the trial-sites and knowledge from early implementing railways. This common development has continued up to to-day. Within this project there are three permanent working groups and a number of Ad Hoc groups integrated. These groups are:
- ERIG (European radio Implementation Group)
- Functional Group
- Operators Group
