  1. Interoperability Technology - High-speed Mobile Data Minneapolis – St. Paul Regional Initiative Roger R. Laurence Hennepin County Communications Manager Minneapolis, Minnesota

  2. Overview • Governance Approach • Multi-layer RF Strategy • Leverages Existing System • Data Interoperability • Transport Layer • Application Layer • Unique Challenges

  3. Governance Approach • Regional Radio Board JPA • Executive Committee • Technical Operations Committee • Data Layer Committee

  4. Procurement Approach • Regional Plan Development • Multiple Vendor RFI Rounds • Parallel Competitive RFPs • Commercial Wireless • 700 MHz Wideband with Broadband Options - High Site and/or Low Site • Result: Multi-layer Strategy

  5. Multi-layer Strategy • Wide Area 700 MHz Wideband • Localized Broadband Overlays • Commercial Wireless Services

  6. Localized Broadband Layers • Municipal Based WiFi -Cities of Minneapolis & St. Louis Park Initiatives • Municipal Based Mesh - Cities of Chaska and Buffalo Systems

  7. Future Wide Area Broadband • 700 MHz Broadband Layer - Hennepin County • Waiting for FCC Rulemaking • Waiting for Technology • Waiting for Standards • Waiting for Funding

  8. Commercial Wireless Layers • Technology Bridge • Administrative, Backup, Out of Area Roaming & Hand Held Devices • Current: Commercial Wireless EVDO • Future: Cyren Call Public Safety Broadband Proposal

  9. 700 MHz Wideband Layer • TIA-902 Standards Based • Cost Effective Regionwide System ($6 Million) • Roaming & Interoperability • Tactical Wideband • Less Video

  10. 700 MHz SAM Standards

  11. 700 MHz Wideband Layer • Initial Deployment is 96 kbps on 25 kHz Width • Speeds up to 230 kbps with Upgrade in 2008 to Full 50 kHz Channel Width

  12. System Topolgy • Uses Existing Voice System Antenna Sites & Microwave/ Fiber Backhaul

  13. Leverages Existing Voice System Backbone

  14. Tactical Network Extension • For Incidents Involving a Lack or Loss of Terrestrial Infrastructure

  15. Transportable Site - COW • Deployable Infrastructure Package • Part of ICC Suite • Mpls/St Paul TIC Plan Element • Voice & Data RF • Satcom Link • Radio & Laptop Caches • Gateways

  16. HCSO Incident Communications Center

  17. Transport LayerInteroperability • TIA-902 RF Backbone • Wide Area Roaming • Multi-Agency Enterprise Network Connectivity • National Interop Potential with TIA-902 • Multi-Vendor Sourcing

  18. Multi Vendor Sourcing • Motorola HSD-50 System • M/A-COM VIDA System Slide Source: 10/26/05 M/A-COM Presentation to FCC

  19. Application Layer Interoperability - Codespear • Secure Messaging Across Agencies • Text to Speech Conversion • Multi Device Capable • Digital Whiteboard • Broadcast Alerting • Video Capable

  20. Unique Challenges • Complex Channel Plan • FCC NPRM ref 700 MHz Wideband vs. Broadband • FCC Rule Waivers • Integration with Existing Voice Systems • Vendor Delivery Dates

  21. Complex Channel Plan 40 of 66 Wideband Channels Planned for System Remainder Primarily Orphaned

  22. FCC 8th NPRM Docket 96-86 66 WB Channels 54 Reserve Channels Slide Source: NPSTC Comments to FCC Docket 96-86

  23. FCC Rule Waivers

  24. NPSTC Comments to Waiver

  25. Integration with Existing Voice System (Not) • Voice System is 6.x SmartZone w/ 2 MSOs • Data System is 7.x • Concerns Over Security, Costs to Upgrade Voice to 7.x Platform & Future Migration Paths

  26. Protracted VendorDelivery Dates • MA/COM – 18 Months ARO w/ Quick Start Option • Motorola – 6 Months ARO w/ Upgrade in 2008
