Monitoring and Wi-Fi Systems for Railroad Application

Introduction

Rail operators are facing ever-increasing challenges when it comes to onboard monitoring and customer satisfaction. Along with the ubiquity of Power over Ethernet (PoE) and the Internet of Things (IoT), operators are indicating a strong interest in increasing connectivity to remain competitive. An infotainment system will keep the passengers satisfied and up to speed with any schedule changes, while the monitoring system will enable the operator to quickly assess and solve unforeseen situations as they arise. However, though expressing a strong interest in implementing new systems, operators indicate that finding the right solution for their application is still one of the main obstacles to innovation.

Challenges

Limited space: has to compete with other onboard systems in an already constricted space
Large capacity requirements: monitoring systems need to store large amounts of data over long periods of time
High number of communication nodes: increased concern for loss of data integrity
Environmental challenges: wide temperature variations and electromagnetic interference from the surroundings

Solutions

RAID with dual SSD: a compact solution that offers high storage capacities and increased fault tolerance
Wide temperature: all modules are tested and certified for wide temperature operation
Isolated Communication Modules: tested and certified to withstand surge and HiPOT occurrences
Customized software and data recovery system: ensures data integrity and a smooth operation

Result

With the implementation of this monitoring and Wi-Fi system, the operator can ensure customer satisfaction as well as a stable and reliable connectivity. The operator is fully equipped to handle unforeseen situations and can ensure the highest degree of onboard safety.
