PSCE Launches New White Paper on Next Generation Emergency Communications
The document addresses the current state of emergency services and the challenges linked to the evolution towards Next Gen. emergency communications and focusses on the vision of the H2020 EMYNOS project.
In the new White Paper, PSCE states that current emergency systems and 112 services are based on old-fashioned telecommunication technologies which cannot accommodate the agile, rich-media content communications currently used by European citizens in their everyday life.
As telecom operators’ networks are nowadays IP-based, emergency communication systems need to be adapted to fulfil regulatory requirements in terms of Next Generation emergency services. This becomes even more evident with the future deployment of 5G networks, expected to support a wide variety of applications and services with heterogeneous performance requirements.
In that sense, the transition to 5G will constitute a huge challenge for emergency service operators.
These challenges and more are highlighted in this new PSCE whitepaper that can bew downloaded here
