Huawei and Alstom the Completed World’sFirst CBTC over LTE Live Pilot

On June 29th, 2015, Huawei and Alstom, one

of the world’s leading energy solutions and

transport companies, announced the successful

completion of the world’s first live pilot test of

4G LTE multi-services based on Communications-

based Train Control (CBTC), a railway signalling

system based on wireless ground-to-train

communication. The successful pilot, which

covered the unified multi-service capabilities

of several systems including CBTC, Passenger

Information System (PIS), and closed-circuit

television (CCTV), marks a major step forward in

the LTE commercialization of CBTC services.

Alstom is the world’s first train manufacturer to integrate LTE 4G into its signalling system solution, the Urbalis Fluence CBTC

solution, which greatly improves the suitability of eLTE, providing a converged ground-to-train wireless communication network

for metro operations. The LTE pilot project has been launched after a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between

Huawei and Alstom in April 2014. The two parties agreed Huawei would contribute the eLTE infrastructure for the pilot and

optimizing the network planning to meet requirements for broadband data services, and mission critical voice trunking services.

Alstom provided the train and LTE onboard technology. The pilot was carried out at Alstom’s test track near Valenciennes in France.

During the pilot, Huawei and Alstom jointly conducted several

tests, including laboratory and static test on trains, dynamic test on

metro tracks, and testing of eLTE Multi-Services capabilities. Huawei

provided its Digital Urban Rail LTE-M Solution with a focus on

multimedia applications, voice trunking dispatching, and broadband

data services based on 4G LTE standards to satisfy growing demands

from the rail industry.

Huawei LTE-M Solution for Urban Rail

CURRENT STATUS IN URBAN RAILIn recent years, public Wi-Fi access points have become a

popular commodity in urban areas. Due to the explosive growth

in use of multimedia devices like smart phones, tablets and

notebooks, the demand on services of these devices in crowded

places such as metro stations has dramatically increased. Huge

numbers of Wi-Fi devices on the platforms and in the trains

create chances of interference with Wi-Fi networks, which

When the CBTC system uses Wi-Fi technology to implement

train-to-ground communication, the external interference from

2.4G frequency band may probably force running trains to stop

unexpectedly.

Besides, a Wi-Fi AP's coverage range is only 219 yds (200m).

Trains moving at a high speed may experience frequent wireless

handovers with long latency and high packet losses, which

degrades passengers’ experience in enjoying the onboard

passenger information and entertainment services.

On the other hand, services for urban rail operation and

management keep growing in number and diversity. However,

communication networks are deployed separately for service

systems, which results in high costs and complex Operation and

Maintenance (O&M).

HUAWEI LTE-M SOLUTION,HELPS BUILD A SMART RAILHuawei offers Digital Urban Rail LTE-M Solution (“Huawei

LTE-M Solution”) for the urban rail industry to build a smart rail.

Based on the 4G LTE technology, Huawei LTE-M Solution helps

solving the existing issues in urban rail networks and improves

operation efficiency through innovative designs, such as the

redundant dual-network, anti-interference design, guaranteed

9-level QoS mechanism, long-distance wireless coverage and

design.

Huawei LTE-M Solution ensures reliable train-to-ground

communication using a dual-network architecture and

redundancy design at the system, device and board levels. The

use of dedicated-frequency LTE networks and technologies

such as Interference Rejection Combining (IRC) and Inter-Cell

Interference Coordination (ICIC) enhances the network’s anti-

interference capability. When encountering interference, the

eLTE network can still have available bandwidth to provide

services with guaranteed QoS, thereby ensuring the reliability of

mission critical services.

Huawei LTE-M Solution is able to deliver an excellent

performance on high-speed trains. The LTE train-to-ground

communication system supports 80 Mbit/s throughput for

trains traveling at speeds as high as 268 mph (431 km/h).

By constructing a unified bearer network for data services,

including CBTC, trunking, PIS and CCTV, this solution helps

customers improve operating efficiency and reduce both

network construction and O&M costs. By providing long-

distance wireless coverage along rail lines, the solution

dramatically reduces the number of devices that are needed

in complex environments such as tunnels. By implementing

a unified network management system for network and

Huawei aims to help customers build a smart rail with a reliable

broadband train-to-ground communication network that

greatly improves the operation efficiency and brings better

experience for passengers, while reducing the O&M costs of

rail.

This solution enables metro operators to ensure safe train operations by leveraging eLTE-based CBTC train signals while providing mission critical voice trunking dispatching and broadband data services such as live video streaming of CCTV images and Passenger Information System. With the solution, metro operators are able to effectively reduce operation and maintenance costs as well as quickly obtain passenger information, therefore greatly improving the serviceability of trains.

Huawei Deployed Africa’s First Smart eLTE Urban Rail Communications System in Ethiopia

BACKGROUNDAddis Ababa, as the capital city of Ethiopia and hub for the economy and transportation, has high population density and

on minibuses that offered infrequent service, had long queues and did not have stations. To address this, the Ethiopian government invested US$475 million on the Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit project, which was constructed by China Eryuan Engineering Group (CREEC) and has been in commercial operation since September 21, 2015.

The project’s first phase consisted of rolling out the 31 kilometers South-North and East-West rail lines with a control center and 39 stations. Communication plays an important role to ensure effective services and monitoring of operations throughout the entire rail system. Ethiopian Railways Corporation (ERC) and CREEC had stringent requirements for the implementation of the Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit’s communications system and needed a system that provides high end-to-end performance and high levels of reliability and stability.

INTEGRATED DIGITAL RAIL SOLUTION DESIGNED FOR ADDIS ABABA LIGHT RAIL Under the project, Huawei provided several of the key technologies forming its Digital Urban Rail Solution, including end-to-end LTE-M Solution and related communication systems.

The demand for these new technologies is getting higher due to the vast increase of video services usage in light rail transit networks. That includes the surveillance system, passenger information system, and other services that consume considerable bandwidth and give rise to new challenges in terms of operation efficiency, reliability, and rail network maintenance.

To address these challenges, Huawei leveraged its 4G LTE, high

a version of its integrated Digital Urban Rail Solution specially tailored for the Addis Ababa Light Rail. The solution includes a highly reliable train-to-ground communication platform complete with all the necessary services systems, including an eLTE wireless network, a transmission network, an IP-based fixed network, communication power supply, a telephony system and a closed-circuit television system.

Numerous interactive tests were conducted on Huawei LTE-M Solution and other services and peripheral devices to ensure stable operation.

HUAWEI BRINGS ETHIOPIAN RAILWAY NETWORK TO LIFE WITH LTE-M SOLUTION SINCE SEPTEMBER, 2015The major advantages of the LTE-M Solution for this project

· Its ultra-wideband technology, which enables wireless dispatching and various other services, including voice trunking and single-network ticketing data management, thereby reducing the need for trackside devices and lowering maintenance costs.

· Its nine-level hierarchical quality of service technology, which ensures critical real-time services designed to meet the demands of real-time wireless big data transmissions, such as those resulting from the ticketing system, while supporting concurrent voice dispatching and data transmissions.

· Its utilization of LTE cell technology to provide a wireless network that covers 1,200 meters with just one cellular-based eLTE cell. The structure requires just four baseband units and nine radio remote units. It also provides over 150,000 hours of mean time between failures, which means a reliability rate of over 99.999 percent. These structures can be deployed repeatedly along the railway line, an arrangement that helps reduce maintenance cost and complexity.

After the project completion, the entire rail line is able to run at 80 kilometers per hour and has the capability to carry 60,000 passengers per hour. The light rail transit system will drastically

Huawei Completed Proof of Concept on Amsterdam Metro

BACKGROUNDSince 1997, the Amsterdam metro system consists of four metro

routes, including Route 50, Route 51, Route 53 and Route 54. With

52 stations in the network, the metro serves major areas within

Amsterdam, as well as the surrounding towns of Amstelveen,

Diemen and Ouder-Amstel. The North-South Line Route 52 (Noord-

dedicated 2.6GHz frequency band for the test, and Huawei LTE-M

Solution was used to transport the real time video stream of the

surveillance cameras to the driver’s cabin of the train. The PoC on

During the lab test, QoS was the most important feature to be

tested. By classifying priorities for different services (i.e. 64Kb/s

constant bit rate, HD video stream and Best Effort data), the eLTE

with these expectations, which gave the green lights for the second

step of the project.

the existing surveillance cameras on the platform were connected

to the eLTE network, while a laptop was connected to the customer

premises equipment (CPE). The laptop/CPE was placed inside the

streaming continuously from the cameras. When the laptop/CPE

moved out of the station, the eLTE (2.6GHz) signal was strong

enough to reach the next station (more than 700 m), which means

that eLTE has a much wider range than Wi-Fi, which typically

provides a range of 200 meters.

HUAWEI LTE-M SOLUTION, ENSURES THE RELIABILITY OF MISSION CRITICAL SERVICESFor Amsterdam Metro, Huawei LTE-M Solution adopts a dual

network redundancy design (networks A and B) with 9-level QoS

mechanism to ensure zero interruption of mission critical services,

such as CBTC. Mission critical services are carried on networks

A and B simultaneously, with the two networks backing up each

other. Non-critical services are carried only on network B.

The PoC has proven to the customer that Huawei LTE-M Solution

provides a very robust train-to-ground communication system

as alternative to Wi-Fi based network underground. And more

importantly, Huawei LTE-M Solution delivers QoS which will give the

customer more possibilities in the future to have more operational

services and offer data services to the passengers, while ensuring

the reliability of mission critical services.

Existing systems for metro operation adopted Wi-Fi technology

to implement train-to-ground communication, which can be

vulnerable to external interference from the 2.4GHz frequency

band. In addition, limited ability of the Wi-Fi standard to support

terminal mobility created significant complexity to achieve the

desired Quality of Service (QoS) for metro applications. For the new

train-to-ground communication system to be deployed on North-

South metro line, Amsterdam Metro was looking for an alternative

solution for the current planned Wi-Fi solution to serve multiple

services, such as Signaling & Control, video surveillance, passenger

information and multimedia entertainment. Meanwhile, KPN (the

Amsterdam telecom operator) challenged vendors to provide a

managed high-availability 4G network for Amsterdam metro and

Huawei Urban Rail Cloud Solution offers a secure, efficient, and agile cloud platform that accelerates the transformation from single-line to multi-line operations, helping customers make the most use of Big Data and build smart urban rails.

The urban rail cloud platform centrally carries ISCS, AFC, PIS, ACS, CCTV, and other application systems. The platform connects siloed urban rail business systems, streamlines platforms, integrates resources, and standardizes architecture and data. This contributes to resource sharing, on-demand allocation, and flexible scaling supported by holistic operations, collaborative services, standardized and normalized services and data, as well as unified and platform-based resources and architecture. In this way, the platform helps customers transform from single-line to multi-line operations, and lays a solid foundation for closer service linkage and Big Data analytics.

According to the forecast of the Union of International Trans-port Providers, or UITP, by 2020, 40% of the world's existing urban rail lines (except those in China's mainland) will be completely automated, and 75% of newly constructed lines will use the fully-automated driving technology. Global urban rail operators, driven by new technologies, are actively transforming toward unattended driving to improve the overall operational efficiency and train operation safety. Automatic train operation will require more reliable information systems and better service linkage.

With significantly increasing scale and passenger volumes, urban rail lines in large- and medium-sized cities have been or will be connected into a multi-line network that requires more efficient and smarter operations. However, currently, the urban rail lines operate independently, lacking consistent service architecture,

Cloud platform at the NOCC and virtualized servers at stations implement multi-service integrated bearing and resource sharing.

Highlights of Urban Rail Cloud Solution

The hierarchical intra-city remote disaster recovery architec-ture provides different services with specific reliability mechanisms:active-active mechanism for mission-critical services, eliminating service interruption; VM cluster backup and other mechanisms for non-critical services. The VM live migration mechanism is also adopted to ensure service continuity even when a physical device is faulty. The FusionSphere virtualizes computing, network, and storage resources into virtual resource pools and supports cluster deployment. Large-bandwidth DWDM networks are used for transmission. This scheme achieves dual-activation for mission-critical urban rail services between the active and standby OCCs and ensures 24/7 service availabili-ty. The disaster recovery capabilities are greatly improved.

Intra-city remote disaster recovery architecture ensures high reliability for mission-critical services.
