Why extend GPS coverage underground?

Positive Train Control (PTC) compliance enabled

Benefit from GPS time synchronization thanks to accurate train positioning in underground or covered train stations. With the SubWAVE™, operators can now keep operations PTC compliant.

Most equipment used by operators rely on GPS

No need to replace or modify TETRA/PMR devices already deployed. Instead of adding a new layer of technology, GPS coverage is brought to them.

Added value for traffic management & passenger information

Operators can monitor their fleet both outside and underground. They can optimize their traffic and even give passenger precise information.

GPS Coverage benefit to all

Rescue Forces, the public, and most user are equipped with GPS-enabled devices (TETRA or PMR, smartphones, etc.). With GPS Coverage extension, rescue forces can locate emergency calls and find the best route to improve their response time.

What is SubWAVE™?

  • SubWAVE™ is a real-time GPS emulator providing signal in facilities out-of-range from natural GPS.

     

  • Using telecom network to broadcast, SubWAVE™ emulates GPS signal matching real coordinates, computable by standard chipsets.

     

  • Since almost every portable device has a GPS positioning feature, SubWAVE™ allows majority of trackers to keep working underground.

     

  • Zone-based or continuous along a path, SubWAVE™ enables efficient positioning, everywhere.

How does SubWAVE™ work?

An  add-on to the telecom infrastructure offering a seamless transition between outdoor and underground

SubWAVE™  is a real-time GPS emulator installed in the telecom cabinet and plugged to the telecom broadcast network.

GPS signal is then available by any GPS-enabled device, everywhere radiocommunication is deployed.

Depending on the infrastructure, the number of SubWAVE™ racks is variable and our teams design the best architecture to fit your needs.
