Going Beyond Narrowband Limits —
To Meet Public Safety Needs
Broadband CDMA solutions supple-
ment and enhance land mobile radio
(LMR) networks with advanced
multimedia capabilities. Arming first
responders with advanced multimedia
services allows them instant access
to mission-critical data, giving local,
state and even federal agencies the
ability to exchange information
data-intensive applications such as
video, e-mail with attachments and
web access to agency databases.
The urgent need for effective,
capable, interoperable emergency
response services has been powerfully
demonstrated in recent major disas-
ters, such as Hurricane Katrina and
the destruction of the World Trade
Center towers on September 11,
2001. Today, organizations respon-
sible for public safety and security
must be prepared to meet escalating
challenges at the local, state and
federal level, while operating within
tight budgets.
across jurisdictional boundaries.
Wide area public safety wireless
communications today use LMR
technologies such as P25. Because
of the small size of the radio channels
used by these technologies, these
networks are unable to support
Constraints of existing public safety networks
The wireless technology that currently supports public
safety significantly lags behind commercial developments.
Land mobile radio technologies support primarily:
• Push-to-talk group voice
• Textual applications such as text-based messaging
Proprietary land mobile radio solutions and weak standards
significantly impede voice interoperability.

Innovative Capabilities that Leverage
Existing Land Mobile Radio Transmission Towers
The Alcatel-Lucent Broadband 700
MHz solution represents a quantum
leap in first responder communication.
Based on open-standard, commercial
CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO Revision A
(EV-DO Rev A) broadband technol-
ogy, the Alcatel-Lucent solution
provides transmission rates up to 3.1
Mb/s and coverage radius of 18 miles
per site and higher. This performance
dramatically exceeds the limited-range
public safety solutions deployed in
the 4.9 GHz public safety band, which
typically have a range of 300 yards
or less. Broadband technology is
deployed as an overlay to existing
LMR networks. Because of the long
ranges achieved by the technology,
existing LMR transmission towers
can be reused, eliminating the high
costs associated with new tower
construction.
Delivering cutting-edge data and
multimedia capabilities enables key
personnel to communicate faster
and more effectively in emergency
situations, no matter where they’re
located. First responders and the
emergency command center can
stay in constant communication,
providing everyone with accurate,
up-to-date information that helps
save lives and minimizes additional
risks to the public — and to emer-
gency workers.
users beyond the range of their
home public safety network can still
maintain a connection via a local
700 MHz or a commercial wireless
network — streamlining connections
in times of crisis.
Fast, easy communication
across jurisdictions and systems
In times of emergency, the ability to
communicate seamlessly with all key
resources is critical. The Alcatel-
Lucent solution offers a unified com-
munications infrastructure that can
be shared across cooperating public
safety agencies, while leveraging
existing investment in public safety
radio infrastructure and training.
Because CDMA technology uses
standardized protocols and interfaces,
In addition, the Alcatel-Lucent solu-
tion enables rapid deployment of
additional capacity on portable plat-
forms, such as a command center, as
needed, when fixed infrastructure is
not available to handle an emergency.

More powerful information tools
By using CDMA technology, the
Alcatel-Lucent solution can support a
growing spectrum of advanced com-
munication capabilities that create a
“desktop in the field” — and enhance
day-to-day, task force and mutual-aid
response. These voice, video, text
and data capabilities include:
• Streaming video (surveillance,
remote monitoring)
• Broadcast (multicast) audio or
video sent simultaneously to
multiple handsets
Increased operating efficiency
• Digital imaging
Broadband EV-DO Rev A offloads legacy narrowband or
wideband wireless data technologies and enhances them
by delivering the following benefits:
• Automatic vehicle location
• Computer-aided dispatching
• E-mail
• Decreased narrowband channel load: Time-consuming
tasks, such as database lookups and dispatch messaging
are off-loaded to broadband spectrum
• Mapping/GIS (geographic
information system)
• Enhanced day-to-day operations: Remote access to
databases to streamline routine tasks and decreases
paperwork
• Remote database access
• Text messaging
• Telemetry/remote diagnostics
• Push-to-talk with fast call set-up
• Web access
• Enhanced incident operations: Mission-critical informa-
tion exchanged in real-time — anytime, anywhere —
including floor plans, mug shots, incident stills, surveil-
lance feeds and on-scene video
• Voice over IP, including interop-
erability with legacy and new LMR
infrastructure through the use of
gateways
• Enhanced Task Force Operation: Simplified secure
sharing of voice, video, and multimedia data among
task force members.

Economy of scale, wider choices
The EV-DO Rev A broadband technology used in the Alcatel-Lucent
solution is a high-volume, open-standard commercial technology used by
major service providers worldwide. As a result of wide-ranging competitive
activity, using a mainstream mobile technology can often deliver a growing
range of new capabilities, more cost effectively. Leveraging the economies of
scale the commercial networks offer helps drive down expenses for network
elements, mobile devices and development of innovative features. Wide
deployment also encourages ongoing product support — and helps maintain
a commitment to the open standards that allow interoperability. For first
responders, these benefits include:
• High-performance capabilities resulting from billions of dollars in R&D
investment for the commercial market
• Vendor competition that enhances innovation
• Highly diverse selection of user devices.
• Roaming on commercial networks with a common device
• Forward/backward compatibility as commercial technology evolves to 4G.
