This inception study, carried out by railway infrastructure managers SNCF Reseau and CFL in a consortium of six partners involving four public Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) from Luxembourg, prepared the deployment of 5G infrastructure for rail use cases. These cover digital railway operation and passenger connectivity enhancement by densifying telecommunications infrastructure and pushing for a complete 5G coverage. To achieve this with optimal resources, cooperation and synergy are key between railway and public mobile network operators.
