Le comunicazioni wireless sono diventate indispensabili nelle operazioni mission-critical, dove la comunicazione affidabile, veloce e sicura è fondamentale. Mentre guardiamo al futuro, diversi progressi e tendenze tecnologiche promettono di rivoluzionare questo dominio, migliorando le capacità dei primi soccorritori, delle operazioni militari e della gestione delle infrastrutture critiche. (MCC MAG, 9 Oct 2024, Natascia)
Se ultimamente avete seguito le notizie sui servizi Direct to Device (D2D), avrete notato un aumento del passaparola mediatico da parte degli operatori D2D LEO-sat. Ognuno di loro afferma di avere la migliore proposta per gli operatori di reti mobili (MNO) per espandere la propria rete oltre la copertura limitata della propria rete terrestre, evidenziando il crescente interesse in questo settore. Affinché l’industria satellitare comprenda la vera opportunità di business e il potenziale impatto del servizio D2D LEO-sat, è tempo di mettere le cose nella giusta prospettiva.

AT&T became the latest operator to look to the sky to extend the reach of its broadband network, teaming with OneWeb to serve enterprise and government customers in remote locations outside of its fiber footprint. (Fierce Telecom, Sep 8/09/2021).
Samsung this week announced a new solution that meets the 3GPP standard for Land Mobile Radio Interworking Function (LMR-IWF), which is designed to let public-safety LTE systems interoperate with P25 and other types of LMR networks. ( Urgent Communications, 27/09/2021).
Interoperability—the capacity of distinct and unique systems to communicate with one another effectively—has always been a challenge in public safety. Fire, police, 911, EMS, schools and private organizations often face challenges to share data and communicate effectively across organizational boundaries. In many cases, important information fails to reach all stakeholders involved in emergency response, increasing the risk of serious consequences. (American city and county, 31/08/2021).
- FirstNet Authority seeks input on potential solutions to off-network challenges
FirstNet Authority officials released a request for information (RFI) seeking input about direct-mode and other technological solutions to address the issue of providing broadband communications support “off-network”—when first responders are in a location not supported by FirstNet’s terrestrial macro LTE system. (Urgent Communications, 14-08-2021).
FirstNet continued its steady subscriber growth during the first half of the year, supporting more than 17,000 public-safety agencies with more than 2.5 million connections, according to an executive from AT&T, the contractor building and maintaining the nationwide public-safety broadband network (NPSBN).

This whitepaper discusses how the capabilities of LTE networks and especially how broadcasting functionality can be leveraged not only to provide mission critical communications at system parity with existing solutions, but to enrich them by allowing users to exchange multimedia content in addition to voice and enjoy access to mobile broadband. (GSMA)
A plan submitted seven months ago that called for UK public safety to transition mission-critical voice communications from the Airwave TETRA system to the LTE-based Emergency Services Network (ESN) in 2024 or 2025 was “overambitious” and is being revamped, according to the UK director heading the project. (Urgent Communications, 3/03/2021)
Ease of use, audio quality and cost effectiveness are key reasons why push-to-talk-over-LTE technology has become an accepted part of modern public-safety communications—although not at the exclusion of land-mobile-radio (LMR) voice—according to speakers from the EMS, fire and law-enforcement communities.
