SPECTRUM/2025/METING_SPOOR/1 - 1: Measurement of Mobile Coverage on Belgian Railways
About This Opportunity
TranslatedThis mission aims to collect measurement results concerning mobile coverage on Belgian railways, conducted by the four active mobile operators. The measurements will cover both external coverage outside trains and internal coverage within trains. The objective requires the engagement of external expertise to implement automated, precise, and reproducible measurement procedures. The mission mandates the installation of necessary measurement devices within the trains and the subsequent processing of the collected data by the service provider. This data processing is essential for the Belgian Institute for Postal services and Telecommunications (IBPT) to control and publish the results. The selected service provider will be responsible for deploying the required equipment to gather data on the mobile coverage of the Belgian railway network. This includes assessing connectivity both outside the trains and the passenger connectivity inside the trains. The resulting data will be utilized to map the mobile network coverage across the railway infrastructure. This initiative is critical for understanding and ensuring the quality of mobile communication services for passengers and operations along the Belgian rail network, facilitating informed regulatory decisions and service improvements by the IBPT.
This is a services contract in the information and communication technology, architecture and engineering and transport and logistics sectors. Located in Belgium, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
