TETRA interoperability
TETRA is the first and so far only digital PMR standard that has created an open and competed multi-vendor market
Contents:1. National and international dimensions
2. Multi-vendor market
3. Process to achieve certified interoperability
4. Achievements until today
5. Conclusions
![Page 3: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Interoperability concepts
• Organisational interoperability– Between agencies– Between people
• Regional interoperability– Between regions– Across national borders
• Technical interoperability– Between equipment
“Capability for agencies to communicate with each other”
“Capability for peer agencies to communicate across borders”
“Process to ensure that equipment from multiple vendors are compatible”
![Page 4: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Organisational interoperability: solutions
Operating procedures– Agreements– Training
Dedicated radio channels– Common technical specification– Agreed procedures
Radio spectrum harmonisation– In some form this is a must
Technology harmonisation – standards– Necessary to gain radio compatibility
Shared networks– By far the most efficient tool– Requires high-tech system to ensure privacy– Both operational benefit and cost benefit
BEST RESULT
![Page 5: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Regional interoperability: solutions1. Political & organisational readiness
2A. Conventional technical measures• Extra equipment like cellphones• Extended coverage across border or repeaters• Control room interconnect by wireline• Radio swap between control rooms e.g. Belgium & France• Radio swap between users
2B. Network interconnect• TETRA Inter-System Interface (ISI)• Three-country pilot Belgium – Germany – The Netherlands• Cross-network PMR functionality, first time• True cross-agency & cross-border opportunity
![Page 6: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
“Process to ensure that equipment from multiple vendors are compatible”– Problem-free operation– Wanted functionality– In practice it is about protocol conformance
TETRA Interoperability• The TETRA Interoperability (IOP) concentrates on
technical interoperability certification of multi-vendor TETRA equipment.
• Successful IOP certification is fundamental in creation of open multi-vendor market.
• Open multi-vendor market is fundamental for the success of TETRA - and it has happened
Technical IOP: TETRA Interoperability certification
![Page 7: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Benefits of open multi-vendor market
User benefits• wide choice of compatible certified terminals• specialised product for special needs• continuous and genuine competition• less dependency - lower risk of market
disturbances
Industry benefits• wider market, bigger volumes• more possibility to invest – faster product
creation• longer lifetime of market
TETRA MoU Association runs the IOP certification process to guarantee open multi-vendor market

TETRA IOP achievements (1)
• TETRA Interoperability Profile (TIP) documents available to members
– in total 28 TIP specifications published by today
• TETRA Interoperability Test Plan documents available to members
– in total 15 Test Plan documents published
See list of documents
in the handout material
![Page 11: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
TETRA IOP achievements (2)• Certification test sessions arranged at manufacturer’s
premises to run the test cases specified in the Test Plans
• TETRA IOP Certificates are public documents and published at the TETRA MoU website
– 69 certificates published in 2004
–16 certificates published during 1Q 2005, 7 during 2Q
Most customers today require their equipment supplier to provide IOP certificates on the features they purchase
![Page 12: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

THE AMOUNT OF CERTIFICATES VARIESBETWEEN COMPANIES – AND IS GROWING- see status lists in handout package
TETRA IOP certification results
• 7 companies have received TETRA infrastructure certificates
• 9 companies have received TETRA terminal certificates in trunked mode
• 6 companies have received TETRA DMO certificates
![Page 13: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Speed of innovation Who else can do this – TETRA already does:• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with integral GPS receiver today?• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with 65 000 colour display today?• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with web & WAP browsers today?
Quick questionnaire in TETRA seminar in Oslo March 2005 revealed close to 30 new TETRA terminal models being launched during the last 3 years
Only open competition can boost this amount of product innovations and R&D investment
![Page 14: Multi-vendor interoperability with TETRA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815931550346895dc667dc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Conclusions
New dimensions of cooperation:• Between agencies: shared network best tool• Across borders: Common European standard
TETRA created multi-vendor market for PMR:
• True Interoperability is reality– Today in air interfaces (trunked & DMO)– Tomorrow in network interfaces (ISI)
• Customers benefit in– Price competition– Wide selection of equipment to choose
• TETRA demonstrates fastest product development in PMR business
