A comparison of TETRA and GSM-R for railway communications
This new whitepaper looks at the TETRA and GSM-R standards, comparing the two technologies and showing why TETRA has important advantages.
The rapid adoption of TETRA technology by the public safety sector has catalysed its use in a growing range of markets, but why is TETRA so suited to railway operations? What are the factors that have driven its success and led to such exponential growth in its use?
This new whitepaper looks at the TETRA and GSM-R standards, comparing the two technologies and showing why TETRA has important advantages in the following areas:
- Spectrum efficiency
- Coverage
- Cost
- Public safety and mission-critical features
- Manufacturer support
- Future-proofing and future development of the technology
