This paper presents an overview of the challenges and state-of-the-art physical layer enhancement designs for next-generation railway communication, also known as high-speed train (HST) communication. The physical layer design for HST must be adapted from its general network counterpart due to the harsh propagation environment and extreme conditions, the strict latency and reliability requirements of specialized rail applications, and the scarcity of the frequency band due to regulation. In this survey, we examine how conventional multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) family techniques such as beamforming, multi-cell MIMO, and relays can enhance the physical layer performance for HST. Physical layer enhancement assisted by novel reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology is also analyzed from different perspectives. Dedicated control channels, reference signals, waveforms, and numerology designs for train-to-infrastructure (T2I) and train-to-train (T2T) communication in sidelinks are also reviewed. Finally, a brief introduction to artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML)-aided HST physical layer design is provided. Several promising research avenues have also been suggested. |
