The goal of the public safety broadband projects in Europe is to pave the way to a pan-European mission critical mobile broadband communication network. Within this session, challenges, highlights and findings from the last three years will be presented by the industry leaders who are coordinating the project.
  • Will TETRA networks be replaced by mission critical mobile broadband communication networks in near future or remains TETRA the preferred medium for audio and will be part in parallel with MC Networks in operation across Europe?
