The railway station is a major touchpoint to customers including passengers. The railway community is considering the railway smart station services for the railway station operations and customers. Many railway companies are planning to adapt the smart station services and some companies have launched their smart station projects to provide the services. The railway smart station provides various station operation and value add service for passengers including the business communication. The Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS) Functional Working Group (FWG) of the International Union of Railways (UIC) and ITS/Vehicle/Railway ICT Project Group of Telecommunication Technology Association(TTA) have studied and considered use cases [2] and requirements [3] [4] [5] for the smart railway station. This document is based on the inputs by the activities.

The present document analyses use cases of smart railway station such as station operation monitoring and control, passenger supporting services and evolution use cases of business and performance applications currently included in TR22.989 in order to derive potential requirements.
