DAS coverage, GSM-R, and network supervision for rail operators.
In-tunnel DAS coverage, operational communication systems, and network supervision for railway and metro operators. Proven experience with multiband radiating cable and microwave backhaul.
Rail environments have specific radio requirements: in-tunnel service continuity, GSM-R coverage for train control, operational communications, and interoperability with cellular operators. Teleproject addresses these challenges by combining RF coverage studies, radiating-cable and DAS installation in tunnels, and expertise in microwave radio links for backhaul.
We work as a single point of contact for turnkey projects — from initial design and field testing through commissioning and SLA maintenance. Our experience covers DMR simulcast networks for operational communications, multiband DAS systems for cellular and GSM-R coverage in tunnels, and radiating-cable continuity monitoring using the patented TP-CCV2 system.
The typical challenges of the sector.
What makes radio communication projects complex in the rail and metro sector.
PMR and GSM-R coverage in tunnels
Ensuring continuity of train control and operational communications along extended railway tunnels and underground metro routes.
Work on active tracks
Carrying out installation and maintenance within railway operational windows, with dedicated safety procedures and qualified personnel.
Multi-operator interoperability
Coexistence on the same infrastructure of different cellular operators, GSM-R systems, and the railway operator’s own operational network.
Service continuity
Strict SLAs on mission-critical systems, with 24/7 remote monitoring and guaranteed response times for every fault.
