I just read the WeChat article titled "Revisiting the Electromagnetic Environment of Railway Communication" at this URL: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/vYuET2ItRGd1P3MAW58I4g
In one passage, the author mentions that "the next generation of wireless for early railways is the 450MHz LTE-R system. Professional research institutions were unsure where to begin their research, and after earnestly requesting assistance, they joined an existing research team to start studying the next generation technology.
In 2016, the Railway Group conducted various professional tests on the Daxin Line, including LTE-R communication testing. I participated in the review after the test and found that the research institute's communications department only performed coverage testing at 450MHz. I raised concerns about this. However, the reviewing body disagreed with including my comments in the review report, stating that the participating unit was already aware of the issue. But did they really know?!
At that time, some tests were conducted based on the presence of issues at 450MHz in the electrified railway sections, and the electromagnetic environment situation was already explained in the public account. However, since the experts were primarily focused on the system's functionality, they did not pay much attention to the electromagnetic environment situation. "There were essentially no experimental or research studies conducted."
Amateur handheld radios in the 430-440 MHz range are very close to 450 MHz. For public safety reasons, I believe it's best not to use amateur radio on trains. This is my initial impression, and I don't know if it's correct. I also hope that experienced experts can analyze and explain the electromagnetic environment and interference related to railway communication for everyone.
