ETCS STANDARDS

At AEGIS Rail, we are committed to providing cutting-edge solutions and services that align with the European Train Control System (ETCS) standards. Our offerings encompass a wide range of standards and modules that ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance in rail operations.

Understanding ETCS Standards

CCS NTSN (National Technical Specification Notices)

The CCS NTSN is critical for ensuring GB compliance with ETCS standards. It outlines specific technical specifications that must be adhered to, facilitating seamless integration and operation across borders.

AEGIS Rail provides comprehensive support in implementing the NTSN.

TSI (Technical Specifications for Interoperability)

TSIs are essential for harmonizing rail systems across Europe. They define the requirements for subsystems to ensure interoperability, safety, and efficiency. AEGIS Rail provides comprehensive support in implementing TSIs to enhance cross-border rail operations.

RMR (Railway Mobile Radio System)

RMR comprises GSM-R (Global System for Mobile Communications – Railway) and FRMCS (Future Railway Mobile Communication System) to transmit real-time data Ca between the train and control centres, enabling dynamic speed adjustments and route management.

AEGIS Rail ensures that clients' communication systems meet these standards for reliable and efficient operations

RGS (Railway Group Standards)

UK RGS are developed to maintain high safety and operational standards within the rail industry. Our team at AEGIS Rail helps clients implement these standards effectively to ensure optimal performance.  RGS are sometimes NTRs.

ENs (European Norms)

ENs are standards that provide guidelines for various aspects of rail technology. AEGIS Rail offers expertise in applying these norms to enhance the quality and safety of rail services.

NTR (National Technical Rules)

These rules complement TSIs and the CCS NTSN by addressing national specificities. AEGIS Rail assists clients in navigating NTRs to ensure that their systems comply with both European and national standards.
