| Abstract | This research project evaluated current wireless communication standards used by high-speed passenger rail services around the globe and determined, based on those findings, an architecture design suitable for U.S. high-speed rail implementations that addresses application requirements, overcomes limitations, and unifies several disparate communication services onboard passenger trains. The developed architecture was evaluated for its performance and feasibility using a new computer simulation toolset. The findings from this project were supportive of the architecture and pave the way toward real-world system testing during a follow-up phase. |
