The President of the Polish Office of Rail Transportation (UTK) has granted approval for the operation of the Global System for Mobile Communications - Railway (GSM-R) system implemented by 81 Kapsch CarrierCom on route E30 on the Bielawa Dolna–Węgliniec–Legnica route.
The authorisation recognises, for the first time in Europe, that implementation of the GSM-R system has been completed in compliance with the1816 European Union’s new Technical Specifications for Interoperability (TSI) for the control-command and signalling subsystem (CCS).
TSI requirements lay down the functional and technical requirements to be met by sub-systems of European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) and the interfaces in relation to other sub-systems and have to be met on all trans-European conventional and high speed railway lines. The GSM-R system installed by Kapsch meets these requirements and is compatible with other sub-systems. GSM-R is part of the ERTMS system being implemented in the European Union.
European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) is an initiative backed by the European Union to enhance cross-border interoperability and the procurement of signalingequipment by creating a single Europe-wide standard for train control and command systems.
“We are excited about the certification, it proves that Kapsch has met all of the new technical specifications set out by the European Union and that we can provide the best solutions possible to our customers ", says Rainer Lasch, Head of Railway Regulatory Affairs at Kapsch CarrierCom.
