Wireless Communications with Passengers in Subterranean Environment

项目名称：	Wireless Communications with Passengers in Subterranean Environment
摘要：	Communications in subterranean environments represent a severe challenge for transit agencies around the globe. This project supports the efforts of Drakontas LLC, the Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO), and Drexel University to develop and deploy a wireless communications system for passengers in subterranean environments. Passengers stuck on trains in transit tunnels face uncertain issues when attempting to evacuate during emergency situations. The primary objective of this project is to evaluate various wireless technologies to assess their support of establishing real-time data communications among a transit agency's control center, a train operator, and train passengers, such that passengers receive timely and accurate information during transit events. The research will identify and evaluate potential solutions to improve wireless data communications in subterranean locations, leveraging previous work conducted by the team in this area, as well as knowledge of other best practices in transportation systems worldwide. The project will also demonstrate working prototypes of an enhanced passenger communications system guided by the results of the evaluation.
