Nokia is providing a common IT platform for all core software used in Poland’s GSM-R network. Driver-signaller radio communications in Poland already partially use GSM-R, but largely still rely on analogue radio networks which have limited functionality and are expensive to maintain. Frequentis says Poland will become one of the first customers to use the latest release of its fixed terminal rail communication system, FTS 3020, which features the new DICORA S20 operator working position with touch screen and the Divos recording solution which can record all calls and data over the GSM-R network. “The first phase of the network, the core nodes and equipping the first lines with GSM-R is planned for end of 2019 and we are looking forward to working with PKP on this implementation,” says Frequentis vice president public transport, Mr Thomas Karl.
