GNSS Rail market revenues
Rail market trends and drivers
• Global GNSS penetration growing steadily, mainly for non safety of life applications like asset management or passenger information systems
• Outside Europe, due to different safety requirements, GNSS is starting to penetrate also in train positioning for signaling (PTC, KLUB-U, proprietary solutions for private lines)
• Global harmonization of railway signaling (e.g. ERTMS, PTC)
• Cost benefit Analysis for GNSS based railway signaling is very positive: industry needs further support to include E-GNSS into the technical specifications for signaling and train control

Reduce the number of physical balises and improve the precision of the odometry
Improve availability of thesupply chain visibility information for logisticcompanies- Georeferenced cargo
status monitoring- Corridoring,
Geofencing
Asset management Improve monitoring of the railway assets both for operators and Infrastructure Managers
Cargo monitoring
Passenger information systems
Improve precision and availability of positioning for on board PIS
Role of EGNOS in Rail
The future:
EGNOS V3 under development, offering multifrequency/multiconstellation augmentation,
will further improve accuracy and reliability of the positioning information
EGNOS is key for safety relevant railway
applications!
integrity delivered by EGNOS is the enabler
of GNSS based positioning in railway
signalling
accuracy improved by EGNOS is offering
improved precision of positioning for free,
which can further contribute to efficiency of
train localisation in ERTMS
Due to the difficult rail environment, any safety
relevant GNSS based solution must be
complemented by additional sensors to cover
availability gaps
Challenges for EGNOS
Railway stakeholders need to define
requirements in the difficult railway
environment
UNISIG is working on defining user
requirements with the support of GSA
Unlike in Aviation, railway is suffering
multipath effects and signal outages
(cuttings, tunnels, urban canyons)
Minimum requirements on GNSS are
difficult to define. There is a need for and
require additional performance testing to be
conducted by railway experts with the
support of the satellite industry
Results of FP7 projects addressing the
issue of additional sensor integration (ex.
odometer, eddy current sensor) are
available for railway experts
Objective development of a
safety relevant satellite based on-
board train localisation unit to be
used on low density railway lines
EGNOS relevance GaLoROI
is using EGNOS to provide
integrity and increased
positioning accuracy in
combination with Eddy current
sensors
R&D - Low density line signalling Project name: GaLoROI
Objective development and demonstration
of innovative GNSS Safety of Life rail
application for the train control, speed
supervision, traffic control and traffic
management of UIC-E lines (low density lines)
EGNOS relevance The innovative
conception of safely integrated signalling, train
control and traffic management is based on
integrity powered by EGNOS
R&D - Low density line signallingProject name: SATLOC
Objectives
verification of the suitability of
EGNSS (including EGNOS and Galileo
early services) for safety railway
application for low density lines
definition and development of safe
localization of trains based on EGNSS,
aiming at harmonization with ERTMS
specifications
R&D efforts continue in H2020
A new H2020 project will leverage the achievements of FP7 and pave the way for
inclusion of E-GNSS into future evolutions of ERTMS
High level strategic roadmap: where we want to be
Safety relevant
• E-GNSS used for train positioning and odometry in ERTMS
• E-GNSS adopted as one of the key elements of the train command and control solutions enabling safe and efficient operations on low density lines
Non Safety relevant
• Rail as a key player in the future European multimodal transport
• Multi-constellation use of E-GNSS for multimodal logistics

High level strategic roadmap: how to get there
Safety relevant
• Performance tests in the frame of R&D and joint activities with UNISIG activities
• Support UNISIG and Next Generation Train Control project in their effort to define requirements in the difficult railway environment and defining virtual balise
• Implementation of technical solution into ERTMS specifications
Non Safety relevant
Support the establishment of standardised, E-GNSS enabled asset and cargo tracking solutions for positioning of rail as a key player in the future European multimodal transport
