Advances in information and communication technologies lead to the adoption of wireless communications in all sectors, including railway domain. Wireless communications for railway can be used for several applications, requiring safety, reliability, availability, high capacities, etc. Furthermore, wireless communications have been deeply integrated into people’s life and current public telecommunication services increased the needs for mobility services. Railway domain is more and more competitive and it becomes crucial for railway operators to make additional revenue by offering more comfortable and pleasant travels thanks to new on board services. Thus, broadband Internet access on board trains has become, in recent years, an essential and highly expected service in the railway domain. This paper aims at presenting the different technologies that can bring an Internet access on board High Speed Trains.
