Background• Joint recognition by EU/US to cooperate
in the development of Technical Specifications for Mobile Broadband
• The Public Safety Partnership Project (PSPP) agreement signed by TIA and ETSI in Washington DC, May 22 - 2000
• Named “Project MESA” in recognition of the city, where the partnership agreement was finalized and ratified in January 2001 in the City of Mesa, Arizona.

Working Towards
• One globally applicable suite of mobile broadband specifications aimed primarily at the professional market of public protection and disaster response including military peacekeeping and non-tactical operations.
• Technical Specifications driven by globally harmonised user requirements and scenarios.

Significant Events• International Criminal Activities in general
are increasingly facilitated by communications technology surpassing that currently available to Law Enforcement.
• A Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between the US and the EU in the field of telecommunications equipment exists.
• The EU-Treaty of Amsterdam raised the EU Police cooperation to Union level, further facilitating international cooperation.

UK Perspective
• A new national radio communications system for the Fire Service in England and Wales.
• The system will enhance the capability of the Fire Service to meet the new radio interoperability requirement agreed by the primary emergency services.
• Communications between the emergency services will be equal to the demands placed upon them.

Spectrum, Specifications and Standards MUST have built in resilience and can operate irrespective of organisational and geographical boundaries
The Key to MESA is...
Whether the system is privately owned by a government or is a government/commercial partnership providing a priority service to the emergency services
Combination of Mobility and bit rates above 2 Mb/s

A User Perspective A User Perspective
• Multiple Applications over varied size geographical areas and terrain
• Voice and full mobile data using vehicle mounted and handheld devices
• Real time pictures, sent from handheld and airborne thermal imaging cameras to Incident Commanders both at the incident and remote from the incident
• Personnel and equipment tracking devices

Achievements So Far
• Statement of Requirements (SoR) produced
• Awareness across the US and from EU Member States now well established
• User involvement from 40 organisations from the US, Europe, Africa and Asia

What is Next?
• Technical work is now commencing on the recently produced Statement of Requirements (SoR)
• MESA Plenary#5, September 25-27, 2002, Copenhagen, Denmark
• Encourage further user involvement from other organisations and countries
• Preparation for WRC 2003 to deal with Spectrum matters
