Successful Transition to FRMCS – UNIFE Position Paper on the Key Success Factors for the transition to FRMCS
This UNIFE position paper outlines the industry’s view on the successful transition to the Future Railways Mobile Communication System (FRCMS) and the key factors that need to be addressed to successfully achieve this. This publication draws on lessons learned from the earlier introduction of the Global System for Mobile Communications – Railway (GSM-R) in the 1990s. The paper, developed by the UNIFE’s UNITEL Committee, also outlines the timeline and phased approach envisaged to achieve FRMCS’ expected deployment from 2025.
