Case Study AWTG, Smart City: Enhancing Railway Connectivity in the UK Through 5G Innovation Industry Transportation Location United Kingdom Partner AWTG End User England’s Connected Heartland Railways Download PDF Reference Overview The England’s Connected Heartland Railways (ECH-R) project, a major initiative backed by the UK government’s 5G Innovation Regions program, is revolutionizing rail and rural connectivity. With the aim of delivering a high-performance 5G solution, AWTG selected Airspan as its RAN partner to lead this project. Through the deployment of Airspan’s AirSpeed 1900 Outdoor Small Cells, the initiative will provide seamless mobile broadband coverage for passengers, enhance efficiency for operational teams, and extend trackside connectivity for rural communities. Challenges One of the core challenges of the ECH-R project was ensuring reliable, high-speed connectivity within the complex environment of a major transport system. Traditional mobile networks often struggle to provide lowlatency, high-bandwidth service in crowded and dynamic settings, especially where real-time monitoring, onboard diagnostics, and seamless communication are critical. Additionally, extending broadband access to underserved rural communities required overcoming significant infrastructure gaps.

Case Study Gogo Delivers Reliable Inflight Connectivity & Entertainment Services by Using Airspan Air-To-Ground Solutions Industry Transportation Location North America End User Gogo Download PDF Reference Overview Airspan has deployed a cutting-edge 5G Open RAN network to deliver seamless, high-speed Air-to- Ground (ATG) connectivity across North America. Covering the contiguous United States and parts of Canada with around 1,000 ground stations, this solution ensures continuous 5G coverage for business and commercial aviation. With customdesigned Aircards installed on the belly of aircraft and high-gain mMIMO antennas, Airspan’s solution provides passengers with office-like internet speeds, enabling them to stay connected at high altitudes and speeds beyond traditional network limits. Challenges Deploying 5G ATG connectivity for aviation presented several critical challenges: High Speeds Jets regularly exceed 500km/h, surpassing the speed capabilities supported by standard 3GPP specifications. Extended Range Aircraft often operate far beyond typical cell range, requiring a network that can extend signal coverage over vast distances. Rapid Handovers Fast handovers are necessary for aircraft traveling between ground stations at high speeds, requiring a solution that ensures uninterrupted connectivity. High Throughput & Low Latency Passengers expect highspeed internet for video conferencing, streaming, & business applications, which demands high throughput and lowlatency connectivity in-flight. Solution & Benefits Airspan’s 5G Open RAN macro tower solution, equipped with high-gain mMIMO antennas and custom designed Aircards,addresses these challenges and transforms the inflight connectivity experience: Enhancing the Physical Layer (L1) to support the unique characteristics of airborne connectivity By improving the L1 physical layer to exceed standard 3GPP specifications, Airspan ensures stable connectivity at speeds beyond 500 km/h, extends the signal range to cover long distances, and enables seamless, fast handovers between ground stations. This allows aircraft to maintain uninterrupted high-speed connections throughout the flight, even in challenging environments. Delivering High Throughput & Low Latency With custom-designed Aircards installed on the belly of the aircraft, the 5G network provides high-throughput, low-latency connectivity. Passengers can enjoy smooth video conferencing, media streaming, and other bandwidth-intensive applications, creating an office-like experience in the air. Seamless Coverage With approximately 1,000 ground stations across NorthAmerica, the network ensures continuous 5G coverage from takeoff to landing, keeping passengers connected throughout their flight. Scalable & Future-Ready Built on Open RAN architecture, the solution is scalable and adaptable, allowing for easy upgrades and expansion to meet future demands in aviation connectivity out its nationwide Air-To-Ground (ATG) network.
