Taking the broadband
agenda forward
• The TCCA’s Critical Communications Broadband Group (CCBG) is working with other stakeholder groups worldwide to:– drive the standardisation of future common, global, mobile broadband
technology solutions for Critical Comms users.
– lobby regulators etc. for appropriate - & as far as possible harmonised - spectrum for deployment of future Critical Comms broadband networks.
• Thus the CCBG’s goals are to:– enable all Critical Comms users to access their information systems, apps.
etc. reliably & at broadband speeds on their professional mobile devices wherever they are & whenever they have the need.
– ensure that future Critical Comms broadband solutions meet the particular needs of Critical Comms users just as reliably as today’s voice & narrowband data services are delivered by current technologies (e.g. TETRA).

• Technology: can LTE infrastructures & services be made adequately reliable, resilient & available in practice for Critical Mobile use?
– all things are possible with the application of sufficient resources…
• Spectrum: can regulators be persuaded to assign enough, & in suitable bands, for Critical Mobile BB services to be operated in?
– thus far only in North America (700 MHz) & Australia (800 MHz)…
• Budgets: can administrations, politicians, funds-holders, etc. be convinced of the value of investment in Critical Mobile BB services?
– hence will delivering such services prove financially & practically viable?
• Delivery: what are the available options & relative pro’s & con’s?
– e.g. resource/service sharing with commercial operators, MVNO models, etc?
Some key issues…
The Critical Communications Broadband Group (CCBG) is a Working Group of the TETRA & Critical Communications Association (TCCA)
• CCBG participants include:– user organisations, governments, operators, standards & regulatory
bodies, equipment manufacturers & suppliers, consultants, etc.
– all members & partner organisations of the TCCA are entitled to participate
• The list of CCBG’s collaborative & cooperative relationships with other stakeholder groups globally is continually growing:– UIC (European railways)
– E-UTC (European utilities)
– PSC-E (European public safety)
– NPSTC & NIST (USA)
– CITIG & CATA (Canada)
– APCO Global (e.g. Australasia)
– and so on...

The Strategic Case
“WHY CMB?”
“What’s the value?”
The Critical Communications Broadband Group (CCBG) is a Working Group of the TETRA & Critical Communications Association (TCCA)
• Aimed at including support of fundamentally required features for critical comms applications in future standards releases, e.g. for:
– Group working
– Direct mode
– Resilience & security
– Speech as well as data services
Technology standardisation
