Seamless and lossless handovers

TRainCom® MT radio systems maintain a continuous, highly reliable radio communication link between track-side base stations and the train-borne counterparts also during movement.

For this continuous radio transmission, seamless and lossless handover between adjacent base stations is a mandatory requirement. For TrainCom its dedicated handover mechanisms have already proven their performance even up to highest vehicle speeds. As a result of TRainCom®’s fast, seamless and lossless handover procedures, operators can rely on a steady system function:

  • Undisturbed guaranteed transfer (even of time-critical data)
  • No application data loss
  • Seamless roaming
  • No system breakdown
  • No network reorganization
  • High data link reliability
  • Constant data rate guaranteed
  • No performance reduction due to movement (train speed)
  • Maximum system availability even > 99.999 %
