Vision on Mobile working
Society is changing
PublicSafety work is changing
• PublicSafety officer is confronted with new
possibilities.
• The public is expecting that PublicSafety
follows the trends in society.
• PublicSafety work is time and place
independent
Three pillars
Fully in connection
• Always the possibility to get and find the right
information
Rich in observation
• Different sources; from databases, maps, pictures to
(real time) video
The right information, at the right moment, for the
right person
• who needs what, when and how detailed?
• different persons/functions different needs
• different locations different needs

Mission critical communication for Public Safety
‘Mission critical mobile voice’ – lessons learned
1 common standard.
1 harmonised frequency band: 2x5 MHz in 380-400 MHz
BUT: We need more data in the field
‘Mission critical mobile Broadband’
1 common standard: LTE + specific extra’s
1 harmonised frequency band
Goal: Being part of the ‘worldwide LTE ECO system’
The Public Safety World
- Mission critical operations, information and communication
- Working under stress + high risks
- Mobile communication is often the only ‘lifeline’
- It has to work ALWAYS,
especially when everything else fails
frontline officers must trust the solution.
PPDR cannot operate with ‘Best Effort networks’
House Committee on
Homeland Security
Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis III agreed that law enforcement can’t
rely on commercial carriers for public-safety emergency communications.
“In the minutes immediately following the attacks, cell-phone communication was
ineffective and virtually non-existent,” Davis said. “For this reason, radio
communications for first responders became the only means to deploy forces and
manage the operations. These frequencies play a critical role during a major
incident and allow us to do our jobs properly.”
Case study: the London Royal wedding
CEPT-FM-PT49 is looking for Broadband PPDR spectrum
Explanation made by LEWP-RCEG
for the frequency discussion
- Approved in LEWP-RCEG 11 May 2012
- Used in CEPT-FM-PT49
‘Moving overload’
- In the past: photo’s stored on film
- Last years: photo’s stored on memory chip
- Today: photo’s send directly by I-phone’s
Where? Close to the coach !!
Overload around the coach
security camera’s on coach blocked
Information to and from security workers blocked
Commercial networks a risk for PPDR

Council - COMIX recommendation
Effective cross-border cooperation requires adequate
communication capabilities including interoperable
radio communication systems in border areas and
between operational services from different Member States
In the long term, law-enforcement and public-safety radio
communication systems will need to support and to be able
to exchange high-speed mobile data information;
current law-enforcement, public-safety and commercial
networks may not be able to support this
Frequencies
CEPT-FM-PT49
• PT49: special working group for PPDR mobile broadband
• PT49 has a close relationship with LEWP
• LEWP Matrix is basis for frequency demand discussion
• ‘Report A / CEPT-199’ with LEWP Matrix + German study
as basis is ready. Result: minimum 2x10 MHz needed
• Now working on ‘Report B’: which frequency band(s)?
2 options: 400 + 700 MHz band
PPDR prefers 700 MHz band
RSPP
Radio Spectrum Policy Program RSPP Art. 8(3), Quote <<The Commission shall, in cooperation with the
Member States seek to ensure that sufficient spectrum is made available under harmonised conditions to support the development of safety services and the free circulation of related devices as well as the development of innovative interoperable solutions for public safety and protection, civil protection and disaster relief.>>
Consider our needs
2 x 10 MHz – minimum for terrestrial network
- ‘Harmonised’ model
- At least in CEPT
- Globally in 700 MHz
- Allows flexible model: real use on National basis
- LTE combined with 700 MHz choice
- commercial technology
- roaming to commercial networks
WRC15 gives an unique opportunity for (worldwide)
PPDR Broadband solutions
Does it make socio-economic sense? • PPDR offers more socio-economic benefit than IMT
• WIK-Consult: “if improved disaster response could reduce property
losses by a mere three per cent (ignoring the value of any lives
saved), the cost benefit analysis proves out”
• LSE: estimates a consolidated annual socioeconomic value of £5
billion from the use of 2x10 MHz in the 700MHz band for public safety
in the UK and across EU28 countries, an annual value of
approximately €34 billion is computed.
• To auction or Not to Auction?
Using auctions to authorise spectrum for PPDR was rejected by
Marcus on the grounds that it would not allow interoperability across
European states and that the PPDR community is too fragmented to
place bids on it that reflected its true value.
Further activities RCEG
- Continuing working on frequencies + standardisation:
CEPT-FM-PT49, ETSI, TCCA-CCBG
New initiative: umbrella group worldwide for 3GPP work
- Mobile data applications
- EC Research program:
Where can we participate (FP7) + can we make our own
proposals (Horizon 2020)?
International cooperation
Tetra & Critical Communication Association (TCCA)
Subgroup CCBG:
Critical Communication Broadband Group
Broader scope: also Railways, utilities etc.
PPDR want to be part of global LTE Eco system
There are many TCCA-CCBG activities on LTE
Basic work done in CCBG
Via CCBG input to 3GPP + ETSI
Some countries participate directly in 3GPP + ETSI
TCCA-CCBG
TCCA-CCBG activities on LTE, 3GPP etc.
See ‘landscape’
There is an “umbrella document” with all user requirements
+ system requirements
Based on all kind of existing URS’s
There is a discussion on architecture:
What in the LTE core + what in an “upper application layer”

(without harmonisation and with frequencies available it can sooner)

• Many existing networks will not be ready for replacement • Voice services over LTE will be limited in early implementations • Full TETRA functionality will take longer to replicate
• For many markets Tetra will still be used for voice anyhow • Commercial networks will also still be used
(e.g. for non-mission critical) in a hybrid model
