Tribal Working Group “A Tribal Working Group (TWG), comprised of volunteer delegates from associations with diverse geographic and disciplinary interests in tribal public safety, was established to provide advice on Indian Country outreach, education, and inclusive engagement strategies. FirstNet’s intent is to inform and involve federally recognized tribes in planning for and deployment of the FirstNet network. The TWG provides unique and valuable perspective to FirstNet’s Board and staff, as well as to state single points of contact (SPOCs). They meet monthly via teleconference, along with several in-person meetings each year.” http://www.firstnet.gov/consultation/public-safety-advisory-committee/working-groups

FirstNet Funding • FirstNet is a Zero-Sum Game • Fees = Costs • All FirstNet fees are reinvested to construct, maintain, operate, or improve the nationwide network • Three Funding Sources • $7 billion • Excess spectrum capacity fees • Subscriber fees
Public Safety currently relies on the same commercial carriers as the general public for data. Public Safety has a mission critical data network just like they have a separate two-way radio network for voice communications.
Commercial carriers cannot provide priority or exclusivity for public safety. Public safety data takes priority on carrier mobile networks.
In a disaster or other emergencies, public safety can take over carrier networks. Public safety has no means of preempting users on carrier networks.
The Possibilities with the NPSBN • Initially send data, video, images, and text, and make cellular quality voice calls • Fast access to needed information to complete mission • Priority access • Modular on-scene access • Applications that may be supported by FirstNet • High speed internet access • Status webpage • VPN support • SMS/MMS services • Video services • Hosted applications (NCIC, CJIC, etc.) • Dynamic Priority and QOS adjustments • 911 services (traditional and NG911) • Cellular Telephony • Commercial Mobile Alert System

With Public Safety Broadband… Fast Access – All on your mobile device! • Built to public safety standards • National interoperability • 4G LTE standards for high speed data • Security
Ubiquitous Interoperability: Federal, Tribal, State and Local Responders
Coverage Challenges • The NPSBN is intended to cover: • 50 States • 6 Territories • 3,250 Counties • 3.8 Million Square Miles (the vast majority is rural or wilderness)
Coverage Options The nature of the terrain, the density of populations, and the preexistence of other infrastructure are factors when determining coverage approaches. Big Cells Small Cells Deployables Satellite Repeaters Vehicles Deployables MicroCells PicoCells FemtoCells CoWs SoWs MacroCells
Public Safety Grade Considerations • Public Safety Features (to be incorporated into LTE) • Priority Access • Preemption • Quality of Service • Direct device-to-device • Group communications • Push to talk
Use Applications The NPSBN will provide fast access to applications which can be shared broadly or on a limited, credentialed basis. Examples include: • Streaming video / surveillance • Large file transfer / download • Situational awareness • Field fingerprinting • Field reporting • GIS / Mapping tools • Locations of local resources / infrastructure • Electronic access to building blueprints • Medical histories • Medical telemetry • Material safety information • Command post operations • Database queries Reference: FirstNet Presentation at MIT /BPD Symposium on HS, “Creating a Nationwide Network for Public Safety", 11/7/2013, slide 8
