Abstract
Nowadays, combining high-bandwidth connections (e.g., 5 Mb/s/user) and fast-moving users (e.g., on a train at 300 km/h) while keeping a sufficient level of QoS is still an unsolved bottleneck. In this article we propose a cellular trackside solution for providing broadband multimedia services to train passengers. A radio-over-fiber network in combination with moving cells forms the base of this realizationKeywords
