Urgent Communications takes a look at the current attitudes in the public safety sector regarding its much-anticipated nationwide broadband network, and examines the pros and cons of allowing critical-infrastructure entities to access it.
Also in this issue, we examine the progress that TETRA has made in the U.S.; how high-accuracy location technology can be used to great effect in post-disaster recovery operations; and why LMR networks may be phased out in favor of LTE far faster than many people think. Finally, we provide a primer for finding and securing radio spectrum.
