Secure communication in tunnels for emergency services and rescue teams
A tunnel often interrupts direct communication with the outside world, which can reduce our subjective sense of safety. Emergencies such as accidents or fires in tunnels are significantly more dangerous than those on open roads. In such situations, continuous and uninterrupted radio communication between the rescue teams inside the tunnel and the external units can be a matter of life and death.
As one of the leading system integrators in the field of tunnel radio, STRABAG Infrastructure & Safety Solutions designs and implements systems that enable all common radio systems to be extended within tunnels, ensuring uninterrupted communication at all times. The use of cutting-edge technologies allows seamless radio traffic for emergency teams. By broadcasting FM and DAB+ radio programs, drivers can be directly addressed and guided with targeted instructions – either live or via pre-recorded messages. This creates a safe and responsive environment for emergencies – and for everyday operations.
Modular Design
Thanks to the modular design of our tunnel radio solutions, a wide variety of connection scenarios can be realized. Depending on the application, our systems can be configured using either single-frequency or frequency-repeater technologies. Broadband, band-selective, or channel-selective amplifiers reliably ensure the required signal strength throughout the tunnel.
Regardless of the radio technology used, our systems guarantee fast, reliable and – in emergencies – life-saving communication in the event of an incident in the tunnel.
Enhanced Safety
Intelligent network management systems immediately detect any disruptions in the system. Faults can be quickly and efficiently diagnosed and localized via remote analysis.
A redundant system design can further increase the availability of the radio system – a crucial factor for safety-critical infrastructure such as tunnels.
