Shunting radio
As shunting at one calls Railway , a local radio network that the understanding of all the maneuvering is involved. It is usually only set up in larger train stations and consists of fixed radio equipment that z. B. are housed in the signal box and mobile radios that can be carried by shunting attendants and other employees in the track field . The use of the mobile radio devices is independent of fixed intercom stations, so that the radio devices carried can also be used at stations without shunting radio.
In addition, the train radios installed in the driver's cab of locomotives and control cars can be switched to some channels of the local shunting radio during the stay within a shunting radio network (mostly only to band C ).
The analog shunting radio at Deutsche Bahn has the frequency band in the centimeter- wave range around 460 MHz ( H -band) set up Europe-wide for train radio, as well as several bands in the ultra-short wave range (bands A to G ), each of which is divided into several channels. The switchover of shunting communication from analog radio to GSM-R shunting radio is taking place at Deutsche Bahn in stages and depending on the operating point over a period of several timetable periods.
