Pp. 1-6.978-1-6654-7087-2978-1-6654-7088-9http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/15988This paper presents a field study relating to the impact that public operator cellular networks such as UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System), LTE (Long-Term Evolution), and 5G-NR (5G - New Radio) have on railway GSM-R (Global System for Mobile Communications – Railway) networks. The validation of the interference calculation relied on actual network measurements taken along railway lines using a dedicated probe. Emissions from public networks, in some scenarios, have been shown to affect GSM-R networks to a large extent. The developed algorithm is currently being used in real GSM-R network planning to mitigate this negative effect on base station coverage and service performance.engGSM-RUMTSInterferenceRailway communicationsFrequency planningconference object10.1109/ICECET55527.2022.9872792
