5 EMTEL – Next Generation 112 (1) Core elements for network independent access to emergency services Currently named NG 112 architecture. The specification describes the architecture, the core elements and corresponding technical interfaces for network independent access to emergency services. Elements are Border Control Function, Emergency Service Routing Proxy, Emergency Call Routing Function, Public Safety Answering Point, Legacy Network Gateway and Location Information Service (LIS). Current revision is to include LIS RESTful API to support CRUD functionality on location objects and ETSI NG 112 Plugtests#4 feedback.

6 EMTEL – Next Generation 112 (2) Interoperability testing of core elements for network independent access to emergency services WI triggered after the 1 st ever NG 112 Emergency Communications Plugtest organized by ETSI in cooperation with EENA (European Emergency Number Association), with EMTEL support. Describes the test cases and scenarios for interoperability testing of the core elements for independent access networks the idea is to cover all Plug. Tests scenarios. Main scenarios covered location based and policy-based emergency call routing network or handset derived caller location (e. g. AML) legacy, IP, enterprise/campus, and IMS based access networks TR 103 480, expected publication in 2021 © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 6
7 EMTEL – PEMEA Pan European Mobile Emergency Application (PEMEA) ESInet Shared Services and PEMEA Instant Message Extension There are hundreds of emergency calling applications in Europe but usage is constrained to the boundaries of the PSAP they are integrated with. PEMEA server-side architecture to solve this problem and make possible that data arrive to the most appropriate PSAP wherever the call is made. Accurate location and other information provided by the apps will be sent to the PSAP in a time of need.

8 EMTEL – Public Warning System (PWS) European Public Warning System (EU-ALERT) using cell broadcast service to alert the public PWS required for all EU members states by May 2022 per Directive 2018/1972 on EECC article 110. EU-Alert based on 3 GPP TS 22. 268 and 3 GPP TS 23. 041 New PWS service requirements mostly come from the FCC and are included in 3 GPP specifications for usage world-wide. TS 102 900, last publication was in February 2019 TS 102 182, last publication was in July 2020 © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 8
9 EMTEL – Io. T and emergency communications Use cases and communications involving Io. T devices in provision of emergency situations EMTEL via an STF (Specialist Task Force, which is an expert group dedicated on a topic to accelerate the WI delivery) conducted a study of use cases and communications involving Io. T devices in provision of emergency situations. The purpose of this work item was to prepare the requirements for communications involving Io. T devices in all types of emergency situations (e. g. communications of individuals with authorities/organisations, between authorities/organisations, from authorities/organisations to individuals, amongst individuals). The STF output led to the production of TR 103 582, and the updates of TS 102 182 (from authorities/organisations to individuals) and TS 102 181(between authorities/organisations) where relevant to Io. T in case of emergency communications. TR 103 582, published in July 2019 TS 102 181 update, v 1. 3. 1 published in June 2020 TS 102 182 update, v 1. 5. 1 published in July 2020 © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 9
1 0 EMTEL – Advanced Mobile Location Transporting Handset Location to PSAPs for Emergency Calls AML functionality is triggered by an emergency call and is designed to supplement the basic network location provided wherever possible. With AML, location information established by the handset is transported (e. g. through use of SMS) to the Emergency Service Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). Handsets can use more than one location technology to establish a location, e. g. combine location information from Cell and Wi-Fi sources. Commission Delegated Regulation (EU)2019/320 of 12 December 2018 with regard to the application of the essential requirements reffered to in Article 3(3)(g) of Directive 2014/53/EU in order to ensure caller location in emergency communications from mobile devices Current revision is to update the current AML data fields to adapt it to the needs of the users and also include AML roaming. TS 103 625 update, expected publication in 2021 © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 10
1 1 EMTEL – Total Conversation Access to Emergency Services, specification and user guide Total Conversation is a combination of three media in a conversational call: video, Real-Time Text and audio. It helps to have equivalent access for all to emergency services, e. g. including the visually and hearingimpaired people. For instance, it can be useful for people with disabilities who need video for sign language communication or Real-Time Text for a text-based conversation instead of, or as complement to a voice conversation. Current revisions are to include a reference to NG 112 architecture, where applicable. TS 101 470 and TR 103 201 updates, expected publication in 2021 © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 11
1 2 EMTEL related Plugtests Already four NG 112 Plug. Test events happened, co-organised by EENA and ETSI. In 2021 a 4 th Plugtest event held on NG 112/NG 911 emergency communications, 22 February to 5 March 2021, on remote Joint international testing in conjunction with NENA’s Next Generation 9 -1 -1 Industry Collaboration Event (ICE 9), co-organised by EENA, NENA (911 Association) and ETSI. The scope of the 4 th Plug. Test included components of the 112 communication chain such as Location & location based call routing Audio, video, real-time text Policy based routing ETSI TS 103 479 core services © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 12
1 3 EMTEL - emerging work areas EMTEL, with an efficient monitoring of technological developments in the telecommunications, can quickly determine new areas requiring investigation for potential WI in relation with emergency communications. EMTEL has members active in other bodies, enabling them to bring another perspective and coordinate with these groups. © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 13
1 4 EMTEL other work areas Interface between ETSI and CEC/EFTA and other pertinent bodies, like 3 GPP, ITU, CEN and CENELEC Close relations with PT Emergency Services of ECC CEPT. Close relations with European Emergency Number Association EENA. EMTEL members contributed to the Global Standard Collaboration (GSC) Task Force on Emergency Communications (“dormant” status at the moment). © ETSI 2021 – All rights reserved 14
