    The MONOCAB is an innovative monorail vehicle designed to operate in two directions simultaneously on a single rail track. To ensure smooth operations and efficient fleet management, various communi- cation needs arise. This paper outlines four common use cases and identifies nine communication requirements for the MONOCAB. Based on this, it presents a communication concept utilizing 5G technology, covering Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication, as well as time critical communication to an edge application in a central control centre and non-time critical communication for fleet management and provision of information for the MONOCAB users.

    This paper introduces the specific requirements of the domain of train operation and its regulatory framework to the AI community. It assesses sensor sets for driverless and unattended train operation. It lists functionally justified ranges of technical specifications for sensors of different types, which will generate input for AI perception algorithms (i.e. for signal and obstacle detection). Since an optimal sensor set is the subject of research, this paper provides the specification of a generic data acquisition platform as a crucial step. Some particular results are recommendations for the minimal resolution and shutter type for image sensors, as well as beam steering methods and resolutions for LiDARs.
