Major critical users classes concerned

Two major classes :
Mission critical (private) such as Fire, Security, Health, Civil protection Non mission critical :
Administration critical (public and private) for Government agencies, Utilitiesin order to decide, coordinate, inform... Consumer critical (public) to allow the public (residential) to make an emergency call, communicate, be informed... Business critical (corporate) such as Companies, Operatorswhich are also concerned to maintain their work environment such as VPNs, data bases, ROBO, SOHO...

Using different communications means dedicated or commercial, with different EC policies,different services.and who need to inter work

Walter LEGRAND- EDSN Presentation

Emergency communications types

Communications types in case of emergency:
1 Mission critical communications day to day or emergency, or disaster Local: on site users (Fire, Security, Medical) Remote: Call centers (112), operational/tactical Computer Aided Dispatches (CAD), Control centers (GIS, AVL) users 2 Utilities (electricity, gas) communications 3 Agencies (local/regional/central administration, government, meteorology, environmental) communications 4 Operators communications 5 Corporate business communications 6 Consumers communications

Using different network standards: PMR, PSTN, GSM, WLAN...

6 Walter LEGRAND- EDSN Presentation

Mission critical communications

Use of a separate ( operated or not ) private, fixed and mobile, voice and data digital network (TETRA, APCO25, TETRAPOL as defined in ITU report M 2014) High quality voice and data, end to end secured, fast set up, high traffic on a small area, operational whatever conditions, redundant nodes... With specific features used like fast call set up, Security, Group call, Emergency call, a full set of specific Services Direct Mode DMO With on site coverage, possibly ad hoc, anyway DMO Composed of different sub systems like
Radio access, Core network, Repeaters, Control centers, Call centers ...

Allowing inter working between different organizations on the same or different networks
7 Walter LEGRAND- EDSN Presentation

Business critical communications

Maintain business for Voice and Data Disaster recovery Geographical dispersion, but maintain service
Rely on public and private VPN networks, circuit and packet switched Networks requirements for Corporate V+D continuity:
Network fast switching, data rerouting, redundancy, variable bandwidth, back up access Mobile switches, IT Hubs... VPN connectivity...

Remote access Remote management

8 Walter LEGRAND- EDSN Presentation

Consumers critical communications

Infrastructure for PSTN, ISDN, IP, Cables, GSM, TV Consumers need Voice and Data emergency communications, call back But also Agencies and Administrations, Corporate need of Communications resources for information, coordination and control (warning, reports, back up switching) Day to day: allow some resources as defined in ETS, GETS...
(But use of PMR could be easy as under loaded)

Emergency: generally public communications completely congested

Have to be restored, rerouted, controlled...

Walter LEGRAND- EDSN Presentation

Consumer/Business and Mission critical connexity

Routine situation:
PMR networks services for mission critical users ETS (GETS, Pas) limited set of PMR services on public networks for non mission critical users Possible end to end Public to Private (to public) calls (Roaming)

Emergency situation: differentiate on site mission critical users and remote users
On site connexity
Inter working of public/private networks to share information

PMR

Remote connexity Have Points of connection between Private and Public networks through gateways, with guaranteed QoS, Security to allow: Some back up/rerouting for Control and Call centers users Some administration, business, consumers Public ETS priority/emergency calls Some end to end Public to Private (to public) calls

IPFN architecture as an open intelligent inter working platform Work Item created in SPAN in June 2000 Document EG 210 936 TC approved in December 2001
users requirements and scenarios architecture (new function identified as Core Profile Server...) recommendations listed with liaison to Tiphon, SES, ECMA...

BOF meeting SPAN-TIPHON on IPFN in Washington in March 2001

Recommendations taken in release 4 and 5 (Priority, Security) of TIPHON with Public Private inter connection needs

Conclusion
Consumer and mission critical telecommunications core
networks can offer complementarity and interoperability in routine and disaster situations, by being interconnected.

SPAN 14 has an architecture work ongoing with proposals of new functional sub systems, work is also linked to the EGERIS EC IST project Classify situations, define commercial and dedicated networks roles, users types to clarify scenarios.
