the KER STM’s in order to allow for a common Balise antenna to be used by ERTMS/ETCS On-board Equip- ment as well as by one or several KER STM’s. This interface is called Interface ‘K’. The Eurobalise Transmission System is a safe spot transmission based system conveying safety related information between the wayside infrastructure and the train, and vice-versa. Several countries use an older generation of Balises, as a group known as KER Balises. These are similar enough to make it pos- sible to read both Eurobalises and KER Balises with the same On-board BTM function and antenna unit if the BTM function and antenna are properly adapted. The combination of the antenna and the BTM function is hereafter denominated “On-board Transmission Equipment”. The overall architecture of the ERTMS/ETCS On-board Constituent and the KER STM’s regarding the Interface ‘G’ and the Interface ‘K’ is shown in Figure 1.
