LTE TECHNOLOGY:

THE FUTURE OF PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS

May 14, 2013

LTE Technology:

2 Copyright 2013

• Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology is fast becoming a ubiquitous, global telecommunications solution. LTE offers improved economies of scale, faster and more reliable access to important data, and dynamic communications options, all of which are tremendous advantages that the public safety community will begin to realize by leveraging this technology. This session will focus on the use and benefits of LTE in the public safety sector.

Public Safety Broadband Network

• Changing Public Safety Communications

• Designed to AUGMENT and not replace existing Mission-Critical voice networks

• Voice MAY be possible in the future

– Big difference between dial-up voice and Mission-Critical PTT voice

• LTE is the latest broadband band technology but is VERY different from LMR

4 Copyright 2013

Services It Will Provide

• Data to and from First Responders

– During patrol and incidents

– Advanced data applications

• Fingerprints, EKG, floor plans, access to databases

• More information for those responding

• More information for incident command

– New applications not available today

• Local, regional, and nationwide applications

5 Copyright 2013

Services It Will Provide (2)

• Fixed image and video capabilities

– Pictures of suspects sent to responders

– Pictures received by PSAPs from Public

• Video

– From the first responders

– From the scene to other units and command

– From fixed cameras to responders

– To others to help identify bomb type, etc.

6 Copyright 2013

Spectrum Used

• 700-MHz spectrum

– Adjacent to Verizon Wireless LTE system

– Adjacent to PS LMR 700-MHz spectrum

– LMR channels are 12.5 KHz wide and support a single voice conversation

– PS LTE “channel” is 10 MHz X 10 MHz wide

• Supports multiple data and video sessions

– Ideal spectrum for wide-area/in-building use

Broadband vs. LMR System Design

The Differences

9 Copyright 2013

LTE Broadband System Design

• LMR Systems Base

– High-level sites

– High-power transmit

– Transmit as needed

– Coverage 20-40 miles

– Omni antenna

• LMR Mobile/HT

– High power (5-100W)

– External antennas

– Talk-around (simplex)

• LTE Broadband Cell

– Low-level sites

– Low-power transmit

– Transmits 24/7

– Coverage 1-5 miles

– Sectored antennas

• LTE Devices

– Low power (250 MW)

– Built-in antennas

– MUST use cell site

10 Copyright 2013

Other Differences

• LMR

– Wireline/control station/microwave

– Low capacity requirements

– Dumb networks • Trunked are semi-smart

– Set and forget

– External spkr/mic

– Channel change by user

• LTE Broadband

– Fiber/microwave

– High capacity • 30-50+ Mbps per site

– Smart cell sites

– Requires network core

– Modify perimeters to handle data demand on real-time basis

– Channel change by network

11 Copyright 2013

LMR and LTE System Differences

12 Copyright 2013

Sites Versus Coverage • SBC Fire Department

– VHF (150 MHz)

– 6 simulcast sites • Satellite receivers

– Covers 95% of county

– Indoor coverage: good to 5W HT

– Connections • Microwave/telco

• Control stations

– One-to-many: yes

• LTE broadband system (proposed)

– 700 MHz

– 62 sites

– Covers 93% of county

– Indoor coverage will be fair

– Connections • Fiber/microwave

– One-to-many: no

13 Copyright 2013

What Public Safety Must Learn

• LMR and LTE systems are very different

– Different design criteria

– Different types of operation

– Different types of applications and capabilities

• LTE systems bandwidth will need to be managed on an incident-by-incident basis

• The networks will cost more to build and operate

– Device prices will be lower and more affordable

• Network construction will be an ongoing process

• How to integrate voice and data networks

• The limitations of LTE for mission-critical voice services

• That both narrowband and broadband networks will be needed for at least a decade if not longer

LTE Enhancements

Heterogeneous Networks

Where To Use Small Cells?

Small added value:

- Low offload per user

- Similar bit rates

- Small coverage area

High added value:

- High offload per user

- Higher bit rates

- Large coverage area

eMBMS – LTE Broadcast

LTE broadcast brings scalability

and cost optimization

LTE Broadcast Enables New Models For Premium Media Content

Is Technology a friend or foe? Both!

46 Copyright 2013

Technology is the key weapon in organized crime, anti-social behaviour, foreign and domestic terrorism and, of course, cybercrime, all of which are demanding new policing strategies and tactics.

While there will never be a move away from the universal ‘protect and serve’ ethos, today’s policing priority is prevention, which is why technology is being used more and more as a weapon for the good guys, too.

“I can get more done in my pajamas before my first cup of Earl

Grey, working on my laptop, than you can do in the field in a year.”

5400 images per second over a

broadband radio

It is worth asking:

1. Will it deliver the wisdom appropriate for the situation in the

most appropriate form and critical time?

2. Will it solve problems, without creating more?

3. Can the operational return on investment be demonstrated?

Delivering new

technological benefits

seems now to be easy…

…delivering

simplicity is not

Merge not converge

Merge using standard interfaces

• No vendor lock-in

• Choose tools to suit precise needs (resilient and robust)

• Best return on investment

It’s not about the device,

nor about how they communicate

but rather what you do with it.
