Summary
In this episode we speak with Jérôme Härri from the Safe4RAIL-2 project. He leads the part of the project which focuses on introducing wireless to replace a network of wires to and from the TCMS, or brain of the train. Quite a bit of research and testing had to be done to reach a point where technologies could be deployed in a demonstrator.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 826073.

| 0:00.0 | Powerful collaborations, cutting-edge science, and curious minds coming together for a glimpse of the future. |
| 0:11.0 | Stay tuned as we look at the latest updates on some of the most promising technology projects. |
| 0:18.0 | Hello and welcome. |
| 0:22.2 | I'm your host, Peter Ballant from Technicon. |
| 0:25.0 | Today we continue our series in the Safe for Rail 2 project, where we discuss different |
| 0:30.0 | work packages to get a better understanding of how they affect the whole. |
| 0:35.1 | Safe for Rail 2 is a European project aimed at improving the safety and efficiency |
| 0:39.8 | of the European Railway system. Today we focus on Work Package 2, which addresses the T-CMS, |
| 0:48.2 | or the brain of the train. As you can imagine, this system is interconnected with wires. |
| 0:55.0 | Lots of wires. |
| 0:56.0 | In Work Package 2, project partners are exploring the next logical step for the TCMS. |
| 1:03.0 | Wireless. |
| 1:05.0 | One of the core activities of this work package was the development of equipment suitable for the wireless train backbone. |
| 1:12.2 | Here to tell us more is Jerome Harry. He is an associate professor with the communication |
| 1:17.6 | system department at Euracom, and he has done considerable research in the field of wireless |
| 1:23.3 | vehicular communication. In Safe for Rail 2, he's the leader of Work Package 2. |
| 1:29.7 | Welcome, Jerome, and thanks for coming on today. |
| 1:32.5 | My pleasure. |
| 1:33.6 | We will talk about your specific contributions to Safer Rail 2 in a moment, but a common |
| 1:40.0 | question when people hear about projects like Safe for Rail 2 is when could we expect to see |
| 1:46.0 | these changes and improvements in trains? And I see their point. I mean, technology-wise, you are |
| 1:52.5 | well-developed, but interestingly, when we talked offline, you mentioned that it's not just about |
