NPSTC Emerging EMS Technology Report
This report examines how public safety broadband may support new EMS patient care technologies through a review of five use cases involving medical emergencies.
DownloadNPSTC MCPTT Console Report
This report provides an overview of selected technical and operational issues associated with the implementation of Mission Critical Push-to-Talk (MCPTT) using FirstNet, specifically focusing on consoles used by public safety agencies.
DownloadMirroring Futures: MCX versus FRMCS
Of all the many disciplines covered under the Railway Systems umbrella, none has evolved so dramatically, and so rapidly, over the two and half decades as has railway mission-critical telecommunications systems. This white paper explores the relationship between two mobile radio standards (MCX and FRMCS), their differences and similarities, potential migration paths between them and the extent at which the 5G roadmap will impact either of them.
DownloadGlobal Recommendations for Emergency Services Organisations to manage the outbreak of COVID-19
DownloadP25 Sharing Equals Cost Savings WhitePaper
The growth of Statewide and Region-wide P25 LMR networks has presented a new value proposition for many counties and municipal agencies. It is now often more cost effective to join the larger P25 Standards based system than to procure/support/maintain or upgrade an existing legacy radio solution.
DownloadPSTA LMR/LTE Interoperability Technical Subcommittee Report
This document describes interoperability of numerous existing LMR technologies to broadband PTT.
DownloadUse Case of IoT in Emergency Situations
Study of use cases and communications involving IoT devices in provision of emergency situations written by ETSI
DownloadThe Evolution of Security in 5G
This whitepaper explores enhancements in 5G technologies that have been developed to address current and emerging cybersecurity threats in commercial networks.
DownloadAssessing the effects of radio failure in high risk incidents
According to a 2018 SAFECOM survey over 30% of the responding participants report that unplanned system failures greatly affect their organization’s ability to communicate.....
DownloadTCCA Public Safety Prioritisation
New white paper from TCCA’s Broadband Industry Group looks at the status and challenges of implementing priority mechanisms for first responders.
DownloadMulti-bearer enterprise wireless solutions for mission-critical mobile data systems
Important considerations for implementing a mobile data solution on ESN using a vehicle communications hub with multiple network operators (MNOs), multiple bearers per network, including traffic prioritisation and Quality of Service support.
DownloadAlternatives for mission-critical services in public mobile networks in Norway
A 2018 white paper laid out three potential alternatives for Norway, which comprises 324,000 square kilometers, much of which is in harsh, frigid terrain. The three proposals for mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) broadband include a single turnkey provider, several competing providers or a governmental mobile virtual network operator (MVNO).
DownloadThe Case For Private, Standard Technology Wireless Mission Critical Communications Networks
For several decades, critical infrastructure entities, such as oil and gas, utilities, rail, and first responders, among others, have relied on their own telecommunications networks. In this whitepaper, Ondas Explains the case for private, standard technology wireless mission critical communications networks.
DownloadCutting Through the Hype: 5G and Its Potential Impacts on Electric Utilities
The Utilities Technology Council (UTC) and its global affiliates released a new white paper focusing on the emergence of 5G communications and whether and how utilities, particularly electric utilities, will be impacted.
DownloadNG911 & FirstNet - Emergency Communication Centers Provide the Critical Link
Two specific technologies, Next Generation 9-1-1 (or NG9-1-1) and the Public Safety Broadband Network (or FirstNet), have captured significant attention as emergency communications center leaders seek strategies to integrate these technologies into their operations. This whitepaper explores the similarities, differences and inter-relationships between these two emerging technologies.
DownloadChoosing the right mobile device for your organisation's PTT solution
You have identified your two-way radio communication strategy as part of your digital transformation project and now you’re thinking, “Where should I start?” Since your PTT over LTE solution is most likely a smaller project within a larger digital transformation project, it’s important to consider which components are required for multiple digital transformation projects and which components are exclusively for the PTT over LTE project.
DownloadPPDR Roadmap for evolution from LMR/PMR to 4G/5G
This paper presents the current roadmap to operational use of mission critical broadband for organisations looking to move away from narrowband networks.
