Indian Railways has selected Nokia Siemens Networks for deploying Global System for Mobile Communications "“ Railway (GSM-R) infrastructure at the Kolkata metro line.
This deployment will improve the safety of the Kolkata metro line while lowering operational costs for Indian Railways.
Nokia Siemens already supports Indian Railways' rail network spanning 3,500 km across four zones.
As a result of this expansive GSM-R deployment, Nokia Siemens has become India's top GSM"‘R solutions provider.
Nokia Siemens is providing its energy-efficient Flexi Base Stations and Flexi Base Station Controllers that offer vastly improved capacity. The company is supplying all operational components including switching centers, Intelligent Network (IN) platforms, service and management platforms, controller data transmission elements and mobile handsets for drivers.
Nokia Siemens Networks is also providing its In-Building Solution to enhance indoor coverage for the Kolkata metro project. The scope covers care services that include spare part management, software maintenance, third-party software support and training.
"Reliable railway communications is vital to address the increasing traffic density while ensuring better passenger services and safer operations. Nokia Siemens Networks' GSM-R solution will help Indian Railways provide a better, safer service at reasonable operational costs," said Sandeep Girotra, head of India Region at Nokia Siemens Networks.
Nokia Siemens said GSM-R ensures a reliable network that allows seamless communications on board trains running at high speeds and in diverse terrains. Nokia Siemens' GSM-R core network components such as Railway@vantage core mobility servers are designed to address railways' demanding reliability and growing capacity requirements.
Nokia Siemens Networks' GSM-R solution significantly enhances communication with trains passing through tunnels, providing security in case of emergencies. Its total interoperability and compatibility vastly improves the safety and speed of all railway operational services.
