  2. Current PPDR Spectrum Usage • Most relevant to TETRA PMR/PAMR • ERC/DEC (96)01 – Emergency Services • ERC/DEC (96)04 – civil TETRA • ECC/DEC (02)03 – narrowband digital PMR/PAMR • ECC/DEC (04)06 – generic wideband PMR/PAMR decision; includes TETRA TAPS • Please note • ETSI delivered ETSI TR 102 491 (06/2005) to ECC (Approved & Published) on TETRA TEDS • ERC/DEC (96)04 includes the frequency range from 385-390/395-399.9 MHz • The NJFA 2002 (NATO Joint military/civil Frequency agreement recognizes the possibility of having a future ECC DEC for emergency services extensions, • ETSI delivered ETSI TR 102 485 (03/2006) to ECC (Approved & Published) on Broadband Disaster Relief GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  4. Future Wideband & Broadband Spectrum Usage for PPDR in Europe • Wideband PPDR • The preliminary CEPT/ECC proposal under consideration is to identify the band 380 MHz to 430 MHz as the tuning range for Wideband PPDR • Broadband PPDR • The preliminary CEPT/ECC proposal under consideration is to identify the band 4940 MHz to 5925 MHz as the tuning range for Broadband PPDR • Standardization • ETSI Work Items for the creation of Harmonized European Standards for WB & BB PPDR are in progress • User Requirements, Terms & Definitions • Report ITU-R M.2033 • ETSI TS 170 001 (JPP MESA) • ETSI TS 102 181(ETSI EMTEL) GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  5. Terms & Definitions • Public Protection (PP) • radiocommunications used by responsible agencies and organizations dealing with maintenance of law and order, protection of life and property, and emergency situations. • Disaster Relief (DR) • radiocommunications used by agencies and organizations dealing with a serious disruption of the functioning of society, posing a significant, widespread threat to human life, health, property or the environment, whether caused by accident, nature or human activity, and whether developing suddenly or as a result of complex, long-term processes. Note: The same Broadband DR equipment may also be used during extraordinary infrequent local incidents (PP(2) applications as described in ITU-R M.2033). (Definitions from ITU-R M.2033) GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  6. Consideration of incorporating SDR/ cognitive Functions in PPDR radio equipment (1) • Observations made by experts in relevant ETSI technical committees • May not improve interoperability • PPDR communications most effective if there are minimum number of standards • Spectrum usually congested in PPDR scenarios • flexibility of SDR implementations generally comes at the cost of bigger, more expensive terminals which require very significantly increased power consumption • Large and expensive terminals could restrict (economics and practicality) the deployment of such devices to personnel in the DR area that need interoperable communications. GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  7. Consideration of incorporating SDR/ cognitive Functions in PPDR radio equipment (2) • PPDR radio equipment often provides customized features and facilities. All radios these days are defined by significant specific software - but different types of terminal don’t use the same software structure. • The only such standard known is the Software Communications Architecture (SCA) - as supported by the SDR Forum - and that is unsuitable for the vast majority of PPDR activities. • SDR will undoubtedly have applications for specialist groups (such as the Military) but not for general DR applications with many potential users. • Consequences on SDR for PPDR equipment • We need to clarify that by "SDR" we mean "Standardized SDR, with stringent standards for radio hardware, software and architecture".  GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications
