LTE for Public Safety

The Public Safety community has embraced the need for broadband wireless to meet their growing requirement for bandwidth intensive applications to improve real-time collaboration and situational awareness. Nokia Siemens Networks actively delivers to this vital need with a robust, full-featured LTE voice and data solution. With solid Public Safety solution partners in various regions, Nokia Siemens Networks enables true wireless broadband, including video streaming, real-time file sharing and Push-To-Talk over LTE. Nokia Siemens Networks is the frontrunner in LTE, with a long track record in demonstrating technological leadership, including conducting the world's first LTE call and achieving record LTE data speeds.

By working together with Nokia Siemens Networks to deploy Broadband LTE networks, government and public safety agencies can quickly realize the promise of the 3GPP LTE broadband to support their mission-critical communications:

  • Network coverage with roaming across jurisdictional boundaries
  • Large coverage footprint, allowing applications to be utilized across a complete network
  • Priority access for high bandwidth communications
  • Secure delivery of critical information to first responders in the field
  • Sufficient bandwidth for applications requiring demanding quality of service, including streaming video

LTE for Public Safety is a complete end-to-end solution comprising

  • The core network, providing packet routing, mobility management and service provisioning for users
  • An LTE Radio Access Network (RAN) providing wireless coverage to network users
  • Network Management servers and consoles for performance and status monitoring of network elements
  • Overall multi-agency (legacy) network administration that allows user provisioning in both broadband data and agencies’ legacy (voice) systems
  • Mobile and fixed user equipment
