Public Safety Market Situation • The trend for Public Safety is P 25 based systems • Multiple vendors have, or are developing P 25 compliant products • Most vendors lack the experience and capability to design and implement wide-area systems • Radio interoperability over-the-air is understood • Very little focus on system to system and multi-agency interoperability • No multi-vendor network exists today 12 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

Building future Public Safety Systems A tough challenge! • How to provide new services and functionality to Public Safety Communication Systems while introducing innovative solutions for Interoperability? § EADS brings its new Vo. IP cooperative system architecture to power and service P 25 solutions with several partners § EADS/Nortel is leading the work on the P 25 ISSI § EADS/Nortel proposal for P 25 PII was adopted by the P 25 Committee in Jan 2002 13 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

Project 25 Objectives 4 key objectives · provide enhanced functionality with equipment and capabilities focused on public safety needs. · improve spectrum efficiency. · allow effective, efficient, and reliable intraagency and inter-agency communications. · ensure competition among multiple vendors through Open Systems Architecture. 14 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

Why P 25 Phase II? • FCC Spectrum Efficiency – Equipment FCC certified after Jan 1, 2005 below 512 MHz …. – Requires 6. 25 k. Hz channel efficiency (4. 8 kpbs/6. 25 k. Hz) • 12. 5 k. Hz deployments will need additional capacity – Overlay of 2 slots into 12. 5 k. Hz facilitates channel reuse – Eases coordination, eliminates hunt for new channels • New channel structure can bring additional features • Automatic handover, Air interface encryption, voice Quality. . • Facilitate Multi-agency operation, repeater vehicle • User representatives are reviewing new features list for a revised So.

EADS/Nortel Networks P 25 Ph II Standard Benefits: ü Enhanced modulation for traffic channels ü Double capacity while keeping same sites ü 3 to 4 times the net data rate ü Superior support for migration without capacity impact • No change in IMBE codec required • Support of Enhanced Full Rate version ü ü 19 Full Duplex for unit to unit and PSTN calls, Enhanced features for Vehicular Repeater Unified Control Channel Transparent P 25 Phase I Interoperability © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

Why P 25 Inter-RF Subsystem I/F (ISSI)? • Many disparate P 25 systems today – Multiple vendors – Multiple frequencies – IP compatible network interfaces alone do NOT guarantee P 25 system interoperability • Need for: – Federal/Provincial/City agencies to extend individual P 25 system coverage for: • Wide-area public safety emergency response • Sharing critical information in routine day-to-day operations – New P 25 networks to interface with existing networks 20 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

IP-based P 25 ISSI standard • P 25 ISSI MUST be open, flexible, scalable, and forward-looking • Scope must include … – Addressing scheme – Protocols for call setup, voice transport, mobility management, PTT management – IP security protection scheme – Signaling and payload data compression schemes 21 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

How to Move Forward • Drive completion of the ISSI standard • Drive ISSI as a key building block to a standardized Inter System Interface (ISI) for connectivity & interoperability amongst Federal/Provincial/City networks • Demonstrate P 25 ISSI for trunked voice services – EADS proposes a multi-vendor demonstrator of the standardized P 25 Inter RF Sub System interface for communication across Public Safety systems 22 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved

Summary and Conclusions • The system of systems vision is the future of large scale public safety networks • Public safety systems need standardized system connectivity for interoperability across RF systems, • P 25 ISSI provides the foundation for system interoperability in a multi-vendor environment • Standards alone do not guarantee interoperability; interoperability needs an agreed system architecture • The Public Safety community needs to work together to support a multi-vendor demonstration system • An approach needs to be agreed to test and certify standards compliance 23 © EADS 2004 – All right reserved
