§ § § Executive Committee met yesterday for a “Broadband Coverage Workshop” The US Office of Emergency Communications (OEC) led the workshop. Presented data collected from a variety of nationwide sources to establish a baseline/starting point when establishing coverage objectives for First. Net We can use this data and refine it to meet our unique public safety operational needs

Guidelines Focus on coverage…. not infrastructure § The goal is to define and prioritize operational coverage needs § RAN site selection, backhaul, hardening requirements, etc. are for a later discussion § These site selection factors will be addressed through SLIGP funding This is a starting point…. . nothing is final § The maps provided by OEC are to help States identify its own coverage objectives § Many coverage factors/approaches that the State develops can/will adjust throughout the consultation process

Guidelines LTE is a mobile data solution first…. . mission critical voice is yet to come § § NPSBN will initially support mission critical data and (potentially) supplementary voice System will not replace need for land mobile radio (LMR) systems (based on current technology)

Focus on Coverage • Where is reliable coverage needed? • For what level/ device types? • Using what potential methods? Capacity RAN Design • How many total users? • Estimated number of sites • What is their operational area? • Initial cost estimate • Parameters for asset data collection • What type of applications do they use?

information? • Prior to consultation with First. Net, IPSC will ‐ ‐ ‐ Validate agency information Gauge interest and needs Disseminate information as it becomes available • Expect to be contacted by one of our new Field/Outreach Coordinators

Summary • • State should develop an understanding of their operational user requirements to be communicated to First. Net • Coverage • Users (Capacity) First. Net will develop a system design based on these needs which will be refined through consultation Focus outreach on the near‐term needs of consultation OEC and tools available to public safety agencies – – – Coverage and User Information Mobile Data Survey Tool Broadband Resources
