RFI Needs

1. Reduction of investment costs (CAPEX) and maintenance costs (Opex) for

the simplification of the technological infrastructure;

2. Guarantee a standard level of the European rail safety (SIL4);

3. Improved safety and capacity of transport networks through the application

of moving block on secondary lines;

4. Modernise signalling system at lower costs to ensure the sustainability;

5. Ensure the interoperability of the fleet;

6. Minimum Impact on Operational Rules (e.g. All the update and

transmission functions for digital map have to be executed automatically

without train driver intervention or verification during the normal operation).
