LMR & LTE: A Multi-Network ArchitectureConvergence and Migration / Overlap

2

Converging Elements

• P25 specifies several service areas:• Voice – PTT Mission Support and Mission Critical• Mobility and Registration Services• Security Services• Supplementary Services • Data Bearer Services

• Which of these P25 Service areas do you use most?• The “Killer LTE App” is MCPTT Voice, our focus

Availability and Resiliency

Network Application

• Coverage • Extended coverage (COW,

IOPS, WiFi, Satellite)• Core Network Resiliency

• High Availability• Multi-site resiliency

5

High Capacity

Network Application

• Capacity - Carrier Aggregation• eMBMS capability

• RAN Aware Service delivery• Multicast support• Dynamic elastic scalability

6

Priority & Preemption Control

Network Application

• Prioritization of traffic for Mission Critical users with QoS

• Preemption of resources for Mission Critical users

• Application driven QoS, Priority and preemption

• Situational Awareness Engine• Incident Management System

7

End-to-End Security

Network Application

• Network hardened for security • 3GPP Driven Authentication• Operational Security

• Application authentication & End-to-end encryption

• FIPS 140-2 level 1• Intrusion protection

8

LMR Interoperability

Network Application

• Connectivity to Enterprise LMR Radio networks

• Interoperability with LMR Radio Networks

• Protocol & Data Management harmonization

Summary

• Convergence• Integration of technologies, processes and people

• Migration• Actual Implementation of Interoperability and training

• Overlap• Driven by how long migration takes, maturity of processes and technology
