Huawei Provides Reliable Networks For Safe, Efficient JakartaBandung Highspeed Railway
JAKARTA, Indonesia , Oct. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Indonesia's Jakarta - Bandung high-speed line, known as WHOOSH, is officially operational. This train will reduce travel time between Jakarta and Bandung from 3.5 hours to 40 minutes, which will encourage economic development along the route. Huawei is working with China Railway Signal & Communication (CRSC) and China Telecom to build a railway network dedicated to WHOOSH. This network facilitates real-time train communication, control and dispatching, providing reliable and robust technical support for smart, safe and efficient train operations.
As the first high-speed railway in Southeast Asia , WHOOSH stretches 142.3 kilometers between the capital Jakarta and the popular tourist destination Bandung in Indonesia . The maximum speed of the train is 350 kilometers per hour. WHOOSH is also the first project to deploy China's high-speed rail system, including all elements of the industrial value chain, outside China . WHOOSH reports that Indonesia has entered the era of high-speed trains.
WHOOSH is equipped with the China Train Control Level 3 (CTCS-3) system, which was independently developed in China . Due to the high speed and short departure distance of trains, a stable and reliable communication network with high security, high bandwidth and simple operation and maintenance is essential for train control systems. This ensures trains run safely, smoothly and efficiently.
According to Lai Chaosen, vice president of Huawei Indonesia, WHOOSH's train-to-ground wireless network adopts Huawei's mature solutions and uses network connections to achieve seamless coverage. Achieving up to 99.99% availability, the network ensures stable transmission of train control signals as well as intelligent orchestration and planning of train numbers and functions.
This data network uses the latest generation of data communications equipment from Huawei, which guarantees 100% network security through local hardware networks. Each link is redundancy protected and redundancy switching can be completed in 35 ms.
The transmission network uses Huawei's hybrid MSTP equipment, which provides the high bandwidth and stability required by more than 20 high-speed rail systems, such as planning and control, disaster prevention, video surveillance systems. , train tickets, passenger control and energy remote control. . This network is also able to meet the needs of future growth and evolution of rail services.
Liu Jieping, deputy chief engineer of the CRSC Jakarta – Bandung project, said the launch of WHOOSH is an important milestone in China's global high-speed rail strategy. The railway ground wireless network, transmission network, data network and other system solutions provided by Huawei have built a high-quality dedicated communications network for WHOOSH and provided reliable technical support for the safe and efficient operation of trains.
Dwiyana Slamet Riyadi, President of PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia China (KCIC), said: "We would like to thank all stakeholders, especially Huawei and CRSC, for their important contribution in preparing technological solutions and railway infrastructure. Train.Whosh High Speed Joint implementation of proven railway technology solutions and operational solutions can be a reference for the development of high speed railway infrastructure in Indonesia and similar projects in other countries in ASEAN.
