EGNSS-based virtual balise in railway signalling can offer significant cost savings

GNSS within European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS):

Reduction of ERTMS dependence on infrastructure and elimination of unnecessary cost connected with physical balise installation and maintenance(virtual balise concept)

Improve ERTMS attractiveness for low traffic lines

Make the best use of European GNSS, and new potential of multi-GNSS, multi-frequency, satellite augmentation, authentication, etc.

• There is a window of opportunity in the T&S market:

‒ Telecom, driven by 5G network roll-outs

‒ Electricity, with the transition from traditional to smart grids

‒ Finance, given the need to comply to newest financial regulations

‒ Critical infrastructures linked to PRS

Galileo ability to compete in T&STiming & Sync.

• By 2020, networks will have to adapt to

new regulations and standards
