  • TETRA Dla Polski
    A Mikromakro Institute Report TETRA for Poland 8 July 2011 ORGANISATIONAL & BUS INESS MODELS ISBN 978-83-62824-01-4 TETRA for Poland Page 1 TETRA for Poland ORGANISATIONAL & BUSINESS MODELS The deployment and implementation of a single nationwide communications system for public protection and disaster relief services is a complex challenge for any country. Synergies in the technical organisation of communications systems must be created for a number of different services, governed by different regulations and financed from different sources, which requires adaptation to their specific needs. One cannot discard the experience gained from their earlier operations, but on the other hand, some old ways, like the physical ownership and control of infrastructure need to be changed, because it is now better to share infrastructure with others. Securing stable financing for a major project can be quite a challenge, as it will compete with other important public policy objectives financed from the national budget. Even when governed by uncompromising security or national defence requirements, public telecommunications projects are increasingly often planned as long-term cooperation with private partners. The telecom sector has been commercialised over the last decade or so, and learned the ways of the market economy. Even if not designed to compete with market players, state-operated projects must take account of the market environment or else they will be unable to cope with their operating costs or secure finance for development. When taking on new challenges in the area of telecommunications, the public sector may take advantage of the knowledge of the private sector in the fields of technology, infrastructure roll-out, management of telecommunications operators' costs or application of sophisticated financial instruments.

  • The Case for Dpmr
    Quarter 4 2015 RadioResource INTERNATIONAL Advances in digital technology have Adriven the world of professional mo- bile radio (PMR) during recent years, but there remains a large number of users with existing analog or partially digital systems — both conventional and trunked systems such as MPT 1327 — who don’t re- quire the more advanced features and capabilities of full digital operation. Digital Private Mobile Radio (dPMR) provides an ideal solution for those users because they can in- corporate a repeater or digital trunk- ing controller into their systems to have the option of operating in ana- log or digital modes. Other users are building or renew- ing their systems and want to employ digital, and dPMR offers a competi- tive alternative that many users are choosing. dPMR Advantages dPMR appeals to users of existing analog systems and those who only need to operate one base station and a few portables and mobiles, Use Cases as well as to small radio-linked communities where the reason- able cost of dPMR equipment makes it a sensible proposition. Another advantage of for dPMR is its flexibility. For dPMR example, there are dPMR446 products that are the digital version of PMR446 in Europe, or family radio service (FRS) in the United Photo courtesy Icom States.

This page intentionally left blank. Voice Radio Communications Guide for the Fire Service i Acknowledgment The U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) is committed to using all means possible for reducing the incidence of injuries and deaths to firefighters. One of these means is to partner with organizations that share this same admirable goal. One such organization is the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF). As a labor union, the IAFF has been deeply committed to improving the safety of its members and all firefighters as a whole. This is why the USFA was pleased to work with the IAFF through a partnership supported by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Science and Technology Directorate, First Responders Group, Office for Interoperability and Compatibility to develop this second edition of the “Voice Radio Communications Guide for the Fire Service.” The USFA gratefully acknowledges the following leaders of the IAFF for their willingness to partner on this project: General President Harold Schaitberger General Secretary-Treasurer Thomas Miller Assistant to the General President Occupational Health, Safety and Medicine Patrick Morrison International Association of Fire Fighters, AFL-CIO, CLC Division of Occupational Health, Safety and Medicine

  • Radio Operations and Policies EMS COMMUNICATIONS CLASS - REFRESHER 2020
    Rensselaer County Bureau of Public Safety 800 MHz Radio User Training Radio Operations Radio Operations and Policies EMS COMMUNICATIONS CLASS - REFRESHER 2020 Zone Batt Nuis Radio MESSAGE FROM THE BUREAU OF PUBLIC SAFETY Operations The Rensselaer County radio system is an extremely vital part of the safety of our first responders while they provide a service to the residents of Rensselaer County. It is imperative these first responders operate and practice proper radio procedures while operating on the system at all times. This multi-year project costing 21 million dollars to provide a digital 800 radio system, paging system and 911 center renovations are all invaluable in providing vital communications for the emergency services. This presentation was developed to provide authorized users the proper usage and operation of the radio system, which includes; incident command structure, on-scene operations, fleet mapping, channel selection, mutual aid and inter agency communications. A full set of policies and procedures to include the Communications Field Operations Guide (CFOG) and Field Users Guide are available online: http://rensco.com/departments/publicsafety/ Thank you for attending and for your service to our communities. Director Jay Wilson Radio Operations: System Description Radio Operations • The Motorola 800 MHz Digital Trunked Radio System provides simulcast trunked and direct channels for Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, County Highway and County Government throughout the county. • The trunked system is designed to provide a high degree of street level portable radio coverage, established at a 98% portable street level countywide standard, operating at head level without a speaker microphone. • Direct or Ground channels are simplex (single frequency - radio to radio) 800 MHz channels that do not require access to a trunked repeater and are to be used for on scene, hazardous environment and interior building operations.
