Multitone Expands its Appear Range of Powerful and Secure Mobile Messaging ApplicationsBY MULTITONE ELECTRONICS - 28/11/2017 Multitone Electronics plc, a specialist in the design, manufacture and implementation of integrated communication systems, has unveiled two new versions of its powerful but intuitive and fully secure corporate mobile communications application. The Multitone Appear smart app now operates in a number of healthcare and retail sectors, showing the status and availability of contacts. Ensuring voice, text, video and image messaging are properly routed and acknowledged. Multitone Appear+ provides new multimedia and rich-content functionality, whilst Multitone Appear Lite simplifies the application for high speed and convenient messaging, with acknowledgement and proof of delivery. Both new versions are powered by Multitone’s Multitone’s Technical Director, Ron Wray, explained the rationale behind the new versions: ”One application that has proven to be particularly useful is for medical teams as it provides a rich multi-media communications environment, but unlike superficially comparable social media platforms, it provides enhanced corporate features for security and protection. From our extensive consultation with medical staff, it became clear that additional versions would be well suited to specific needs and budgets.” Ron continued: “Multitone Appear+ provides features which enable medical clinicians to share information, images and video content to collaborate more effectively, while the Lite app has been designed to provide simple but quick messaging for staff on the go.” Multitone Appear+As well as all the key components of the original application, Multitone’s Appear+ offers new options. For example, a copy of the patient consent form can be attached as a digital signature, providing approval for sensitive clinical images to be shared between authorised users within a secure corporate network. The app also features an inbuilt SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) phone client, which is linked directly to Multitone i-Message and enables the user to securely call and talk to other app or phone users. Coupled with an inbuilt conference bridge the app also allows for users to come together for quick and easy group discussions. At the same time, Multitone Appear+ can be fully integrated with other building or medical facility systems, such as fire alarms and nurse call solutions, to ensure relevant staff can be immediately updated. Additionally, the app offers a ‘Smart Buttons’ option which can be configured to directly link and operate other organisational systems (including doors, lights, alarms), or to show a list of tasks for better time management. Multitone Appear LiteDesigned as an intelligent and dynamic pager alternative, this app ensures messages are shared with the right team members and escalates to a supervisor in a timely manner if unanswered. The application features acknowledgement receipts and stores information securely. As with the other versions, Multitone Appear Lite can be operated over a Wi-Fi or mobile network, meaning it can be used on or off site as required. Ron concluded, “The Multitone Appear range has almost limitless options with regards to communications and resource management. Our development team works closely with our customers to develop solutions that are essential and practical. We highly value this input and it will be a key part of the product evolution moving forwards.” To find out more about Multitone’s Appear range and how it can help your medical facility, please call us +44 (0)1506 418198 or visit the website: www.multitone.com.

Top 12 reasons why we still need pagersPublished on November 24, 2017 Igor Gluic CTO Healthcare leaders always impress me. They are independent thinkers who understand the evolution of medicine and they are passionate about serving the needs of patients. This type of professional starts by focusing on people, not a walking list of symptoms. Legendary management consultant Peter Drucker once said, “Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.” For hospital personnel, this means delivering the best solution to a hospital’s competitive challenges through evidence-based results. Dr. George Cembrowski, Director of Medical Biochemistry for the University of Alberta, is keen on quality control in the lab and believes in ways to efficiently care for the patient while controlling costs for the healthcare system. Dr. Cembrowski is the author of Laboratory Quality Management and is often invited to address medical symposiums around the world. Dr. Cembrowski talked about the efficiency of healthcare in Canada and the United States. He believes the escalating cost of medicine can be reduced with a better analysis of big data originating in the laboratory. The need for ongoing education was a central theme of his insights and the conversation soon moved to telecommunications in healthcare. Does he have a pager?“I love my pager!” enthused Dr. Cembrowski as he pulled aside his coat to reveal a pager clipped to his belt. “Even when I am in the underground parking lot, the page reaches me so that I am always prepared for my next visit.” His pager had the name of our brand on it: *Medipage. “Many of my associates use them, too.” Dr. Cembrowski added that while he has a smartphone and likes the functionality it offers in his day-to-day workflows, he never goes without his pager. “I trust it,” he said. Hospital Code Blue: The group paging feature reaches multiple pagers—at the same time—with 1 page/message.
There’s much to love about pagers in hospital settings today. Besides the reliability, there’s the ability to be discreet since they’re smaller and quieter than a smartphone. Phones alert for anything and everything, even when things aren’t urgent. Pagers generally are used when seconds count in an emergency. Here are 12 reasons for carrying a pager, some of which might surprise you.
Pagers may not be as glamorous as your smartphone but you can trust them times of emergency. * Medipage is the trademark brand that Citipage Ltd. uses for employees with Alberta Health Services. same bandwidth. |

Disaster-Proven Paging for Public SafetyPaging system designs in the United States typically use a voice radio-style infrastructure. These systems are primarily designed for outdoor mobile coverage with modest indoor coverage. Before Narrowbanding, coverage wasn’t good, but what they have now is not acceptable! The high power, high tower approach also makes the system vulnerable. If one base station fails, a large area loses their paging service immediately! Almost every technology went from analog to digital except fire paging. So it’s time to think about digital paging! The Disaster-Proven Paging Solution (DiCal) from Swissphone offers improved coverage, higher reliability and flexibility beyond anything that traditional analog or digital paging systems can provide. Swissphone is the No. 1 supplier for digital paging solutions worldwide. The Swiss company has built paging networks for public safety organizations all over the world. Swissphone has more than 1 million pagers in the field running for years and years due to their renowned high quality. DiCal is the digital paging system developed and manufactured by Swissphone. It is designed to meet the specific needs of public safety organizations. Fire and EMS rely on these types of networks to improve incident response time. DiCal systems are designed and engineered to provide maximum indoor paging coverage across an entire county. In a disaster situation, when one or several connections in a simulcast solution are disrupted or interrupted, the radio network automatically switches to fall back operating mode. Full functionality is preserved at all times. This new system is the next level of what we know as “Simulcast Paging” here in the U.S.
Swissphone offers high-quality pagers, very robust and waterproof. Swissphone offers the best sensitivity in the industry, and battery autonomy of up to three months. First responder may choose between a smart s.QUAD pager, which is able to connect with a smartphone and the Hurricane DUO pager, the only digital pager who offers text-to-voice functionality. Bluetooth technology makes it possible to connect the s.QUAD with a compatible smartphone, and ultimately with various s.ONE software solutions from Swissphone. Thanks to Bluetooth pairing, the s.QUAD combines the reliability of an independent paging system with the benefits of commercial cellular network. Dispatched team members can respond back to the call, directly from the pager. The alert message is sent to the pager via paging and cellular at the same time. This hybrid solution makes the alert faster and more secure. Paging ensures alerting even if the commercial network fails or is overloaded. Swissphone sets new standards in paging: Paging Network

Amateur Radio-Carrying D-Star One CubeSat among Spacecraft Apparently Lost11/29/2017 The first Amateur Radio satellite to employ the D-Star digital voice and data format — D-Star One — was among about 20 secondary payloads lost on November 28 after an otherwise nominal launch of a three-stage Soyuz 2.1 booster from the new Vostochny Cosmodrome in the far reaches of eastern Russia. The mission carried the Russian Meteor M2-1 satellite — the primary payload — as well as a Canadian Telestar experimental satellite, and 17 other secondary payloads, including D-Star One. According to reports, a fault occurred in the sophisticated and autonomous Fregat upper stage, which, after separating from the launch vehicle, inserts multiple spacecraft into their respective orbits. A so-called “space tug,” Fregat has been in service for nearly 2 decades and has suffered three previous failures. Russian space agency Roscosmos is investigating the Fregat failure. D-Star One, the first German commercial CubeSat, carried four communication modules, two designated for Amateur Radio use. It was developed by German Orbital Systems in cooperation with the Czech company iSky Technology as part of a plan to eventually assemble a low-Earth orbit communication network. “Hopefully, we'll get another chance to utilize D-Star communications with a satellite repeater sometime in the future,” Wayne Day, N5WD, commented on the AMSAT-BB. The Fregat upper stage functions as an orbital vehicle in its own right to access a range of orbital configurations through a series of “burns.” Made up of 6 spherical tanks arrayed in a circle, Fregat is “independent from the lower three stages, having its own guidance, navigation, control, tracking, and telemetry systems,” according to Gunter’s Space Page. The November 28 launch was only the second from the new cosmodrome. |

Verizon Plans to Deploy Broadband in Up to Five Markets in 2018Verizon Communications announced it will launch wireless residential broadband services in at least three and up to five U.S. markets in 2018. Verizon’s first commercial launch is planned for Sacramento, CA, in the second half of 2018. Details will be forthcoming, according to the carrier. Verizon trialed 5G residential applications in 11 markets this year. The commercial launch is based on customer experience and on the carrier’s confidence in new technology using millimeter-wave spectrum. The carrier estimates the initial 5G market opportunity for residential broadband at 30 million households nationwide. Verizon Global Networks President/CTO Hans Vestberg called the announcement a “landmark” and said the 5G launch will not “have a material impact on Verizon’s consolidated capital expenditures in 2018.” Also, the initial launches “will provide a strong framework for accelerating 5G’s future deployment.” T-Mo Rolls Out Roll Out Plans for 28,000 Small CellsT-Mobile plans to deploy 28,000 small cells “in the short term,” according to Karri Kuoppamaki, T-Mo’s VP of Technology Development and Strategy. Although he didn’t say anything else about the rollout, he did go into a bit more detail about T-Mobile’s approach to deploying small cells:
In addition to deploying these small cells, T-Mobile is working to build out its 700 MHz and 600 MHz coverage. T-Mo has said that while its 700 MHz Extended Range LTE rollout is largely complete, it does plan to deploy 700 MHz coverage “in a few remaining areas” through December. Meanwhile, 600 MHz LTE has been deployed in Cheyenne, Wyoming and Scarborough, Maine. T-Mobile said that it plans to roll out 600 MHz LTE coverage in a handful of other markets in 2017, including West Texas, Eastern Washington, Western North Dakota, and Central Virginia. |

Any entity that uses the Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC) must register with Telcordia Technologies d/b/a iconectiv. This is because Neustar is transitioning the operation of the NPAC to iconectiv pursuant to a new FCC contract. Affected users include providers of telecommunications and telecommunications-related services as well as Service Bureaus, law enforcement/public safety agencies and users of Wireless Do-Not-Call services.
Law Enforcement and Public Safety agencies that use the NPAC to look up the carriers that provide service to particular telephone numbers, even if only occasionally, should be aware that the NPAC is being transitioned from the current provider, Neustar, to a new provider, iconectiv. Law Enforcement and Public Safety agencies need to take affirmative steps to complete this transition and will need to be registered with inconectiv in order to continue to utilize the NPAC. The FCC has commenced outreach to law enforcement agencies and Public Safety Answering Points who will access the inconectiv NPAC Interactive Voice Response (NPAC-IVR) Service.
Deadlines
Law Enforcement and Public Safety entities and Users of Wireless Do-Not-Call Service must register by November 30, 2017 if they want to participate in pre-cutover testing and December 31, 2017 for all users, whether or not they are participating in testing. Failure to register in a timely manner will result in disruption to your access to the NPAC system until the registration process is completed.
Upcoming Important Milestones
- Testing will begin in December 2017
- Cutover for services will begin in early March 2018

On October 30, the FCC announced that it has reached a $1.7 million consent decree with Securus Technologies resolving an investigation into whether Securus provided inaccurate and misleading information to the FCC regarding the company’s transfer of control to Platinum Equity, LLC. As part of the consent decree, Securus will implement a strict compliance plan. With the resolution of the investigation and the commitment of Securus to the compliance plan, the agency approved the company’s proposed transfer of control from Securus Investment Holdings, LLC to Platinum Equity, LLC. The FCC’s action underscores the need to file the required approval applications well before any planned merger, sale or other transaction, and to provide accurate information — whether in connection with wireline matters or wireless licensing matters.
Specifically, the FCC’s Wireline Competition Bureau, in its review of the merger application, found “Securus’s cavalier and willful attitude towards the FCC and its transaction review process unacceptable.” Because this conduct was wholly relevant to the pending merger applications, the Wireline Competition and International Bureaus paused further consideration of the transaction and referred the matter to the FCC’s Enforcement Bureau. The approval application stated: “We have received approvals for 48 of 48 state money license transfer approvals, Hart Scott Rodino Justice Department approval, and all necessary State/PSC/PUC approvals.” However, when the company executives made their representations, four State Regulatory Authorities had not yet approved the transfer of control.
As a result, the FCC’s Enforcement Bureau opened an investigation into apparent violations of FCC rules requiring all material information submitted to the agency be correct and complete, and not misleading. To conclude the investigation, Securus has agreed to pay a $1,700,000 civil penalty and to implement a three-year compliance plan to ensure that it adheres to FCC rules. The compliance plan requires Securus to appoint a compliance officer, implement internal procedures, submit periodic reports and ensure that all FCC filings be reviewed and receive written approval by legal counsel.
The Securus transaction involves a transfer of control to a holding company entity that has no competing operations, and that was not involved in the violations of FCC rules. With the resolution of the Enforcement Bureau investigation and Securus’ commitment to the compliance plan, the FCC found that this transaction imposes no public interest harms. Additionally, the FCC found that the transaction may increase capital resources available to Securus to implement or continue offering certain services and programs for inmates and law enforcement that it has committed to offer.
While this case does not involve the transfer of FCC wireless licenses, it is nonetheless instructive. When filing applications, it is critically important that applicants be forthright with the Commission. A failure to be forthright could result in the FCC determining that an applicant lacks “candor”, which could preclude the applicant from holding an FCC license authorization.

The FCC has granted the request of Arizona Public Service Company (APSC) for waiver of the 800 MHz application freeze along the border with Mexico, to permit licensing and implementation of a new statewide radio system. APSC is Arizona’s largest electric service company, serving more than 1.2 million customers (out of a state population of 1.85 million).
APSC utilizes two-way radio to maintain reliable communication between dispatchers and service personnel working on substations, distribution and transmission lines, and generation facilities throughout the state. Additionally, APSC shares its radio system with the State of Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs, the Arizona Radiation Regulatory Agency, and the Emergency Operations Center in each of Arizona’s fifteen counties. APSC also stated that its radio system is an aging 800 MHz radio system that is difficult to maintain and relies on equipment that has been discontinued and is no longer supported by the manufacturer. As a result, APSC has a need to implement a new Project 25 radio system that will have redundancy and resiliency to ensure reliable communications during critical outages.
APSC plans to deploy this new system in parallel with its existing system in order to ensure that service is not interrupted. However, it does not have enough spectrum to operate both the legacy system and the new system in parallel, while the new system is tested and communications are transitioned from one system to the other.
In granting a waiver of the freeze, the FCC noted the unique and unusual factual circumstances of the instant case, and concluded that APSC had met the standard for grant of a waiver of the border freeze and for early access to Expansion Band channels. The FCC found that application of the rules would be unduly burdensome and contrary to the public interest, and APSC has no reasonable alternative. Reliable communication is essential for critical infrastructure industry entities like APSC and the public safety agencies that share APSC’s radio system.

On November 2, Sens. Bill Nelson (D., Fla.) and Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) introduced legislation to accelerate the deployment of next-generation 911 (NG-911) services. Among other things, the so-called Next-Generation 9-1-1 Act of 2017 would expand a federal NG-911 grant program and establish an advisory board to recommend updates to the definition of NG-911.
Specifically, the bill would extend the current NG-911 grant program for five years and authorize appropriations for fiscal years 2018 to 2022. It would also lower the matching requirement from 40% to 20%. Interestingly, funds could not be used for any part of the FirstNet system; however, states would be required to coordinate with FirstNet to ensure that NG-911 services were interoperable. Additionally, a 17-member Advisory Board for Next Generation 9-1-1 Interoperability would be responsible for recommending any updates to the definition of NG-911 that was adopted in the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2017.
“Upgrading the nation’s 9-1-1 system is literally a life and death matter that must become more of a national priority,” said Sen. Nelson. “In this digital world, Americans must have more than one way to access the 9-1-1 assistance they need and expect when emergencies occur. No plea for help should go unanswered because a call center doesn’t have the technology to receive a text, video or picture.”
“As a former prosecutor and co-chair of the NextGen 9-1-1 Caucus in the Senate, I know how important it is for our first responders, law enforcement officers, and public safety leaders to be able to communicate seamlessly during times of crisis,” said Sen. Klobuchar. “Our legislation would provide state and local governments with the resources they need to efficiently transition to NG 9-1-1 and strengthen our country’s emergency response networks.”
In a statement released the same day, Commissioner Rosenworcel said, “Today, roughly 240 million calls are made each year to 911. But like so much else, we need to remake our 911 services to reflect the digital age we live in. The future will bring Next Generation 9-1-1 to call centers to support voice, text, data and video communications. But to get there, we need strong coordination, a focused effort, and real leadership. So kudos to Senator Nelson and Senator Klobuchar for introducing the Next Generation 9-1-1 Act of 2017.”

With the Commission having voted on a Second Report and Order, Order on Reconsideration and Memorandum Opinion and Order in the Spectrum Bands Above 24 GHz proceeding (GN Docket No. 14-177, also known as the “Spectrum Frontiers” proceeding), the commercial wireless industry has been pressuring the FCC to hold auctions for 28 GHz and 37-39 GHz band spectrum by the end of next year. The 28 GHz spectrum to be sold has been reconfigured from the LMDS band.
An exparte notice filed recently by CTIA emphasized the importance of making significant blocks of spectrum available for licensed terrestrial mobile use to facilitate 5G mobile broadband networks and services. In the filing, CTIA urged the Commission to set a deadline of 2018 for moving forward with an auction of the bands made available in the 2016 Spectrum Frontiers Order and to be addressed in the forthcoming Second Order. For our clients holding LMDS A Block licenses, the FCC’s vote would help advance the reconfiguration of their licenses in the manner we reported last year.
CTIA also urged the Commission to move rapidly to allow use of the 32 GHz, 42 GHz, and 50 GHz bands within a fixed timetable, to seek expeditious comment on the use of the 26 GHz band for terrestrial mobile wireless, and to not foreclose discussion of expanding the Part 30 framework to the remaining Local Multipoint Distribution Service bands (i.e., smaller non-contiguous portions of the LMDS A block and the LMDS B-Block that have not been allocated for 5G).
AT&T on its own today ramped up the pressure on the agency to auction the millimeter wave spectrum without delay. "Now that the Commission has the 5G ball rolling with spectrum allocations, we urgently need to get to the next step — auctioning this newly allocated spectrum so that mobile broadband providers can deploy as quickly as possible," wrote AT&T Assistant Vice President Stacey Black in a company blog post.
The Second Report and Order in the Spectrum Frontiers proceeding makes available 1,700 MHz of additional high-frequency spectrum for flexible terrestrial wireless use; provides 4 gigahertz for core satellite use; and adopts, refines, or affirms a number of service rules to promote robust deployment in these bands. A Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeks comment on certain related earth station, buildout, and licensing issues.
Accenture has estimated that the network deployment build of 5G will involve ten to 100 times more antenna locations than 3G or 4G, meaning that all manner of infrastructure will be required, including traditional towers, small cells, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and unlicensed Wi-Fi offload.
With an anticipated explosion in 5G “small cell” deployments, efforts to clear the way for rapid 5G network buildout has also prompted industry efforts on Capitol Hill. In this regard, Wireless Infrastructure Association President Jonathan Adelstein recently testified at a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing on 5G that "it is more important than ever to plan for future spectrum need," according to his written statement.
According to Adelstein’s testimony, “5G networks will be up to 100 times faster and five times more responsive than today’s networks. It will be able to support 100 times more wireless devices. It will bring faster speeds, greater value, and more choices for consumers. 5G will spur life-altering innovations in telemedicine, distance learning, improved public safety response, mobile banking, and a host of industrial and manufacturing functions.”
Adelstein’s testimony concludes that the enormous opportunity of 5G will only happen if Congress adopts sound policies that encourage investment and innovation.

On November 13, Verizon announced that AT&T, Verizon, and a third party named Tillman Infrastructure entered into a joint agreement to build hundreds of cell towers. The Verge reports that Tillman is a private company that makes and owns towers, and will construct the towers to suit AT&T and Verizon in locations in need of more coverage. The new towers may be available for lease to our clients and other private radio users, as adjunct tenants.
"We continue to focus on technology innovation and investing in the latest software platforms to provide the best possible customer experience on our network," said Nicola Palmer, Chief Network Officer for Verizon Wireless. "At the same time, it is imperative to reduce operating costs. We are reviewing all of our long-term contracts as they come up for renewal and we are excited to develop new vendor partners to diversify our infrastructure providers."
"We need more alternatives to the traditional tower leasing model with the large incumbents. It's not cost-effective or sustainable. We're creating a diverse community of suppliers and tower companies who will help increase market competition while reducing our overhead," said Susan Johnson, SVP of Global Supply Chain, AT&T. "We look forward to working with Verizon as we establish site locations and sign new lease agreements with additional suppliers in the coming years."

At the recent Competitive Carriers Association trade show in Fort Worth, a representative for AT&T was reportedly reaching out to smaller wireless carriers about working with AT&T to build out coverage for the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet). This could be a significant opportunity for our rural clients to participate in a major infrastructure project that will cover all 50 states, 5 U.S. territories and the District of Columbia, including rural communities and tribal lands in those states and territories.
FirstNet is an independent authority within the Commerce Department that has been charged with responsibilities for deploying and operating the nationwide public safety broadband network and will hold the license for both the existing public safety broadband spectrum (763- 769 MHz / 793-799 MHz) and the reallocated D Block (758-763 MHz / 788-793 MHz). The FirstNet public-private operating framework allows the network’s commercial partner to access a portion of the partnership’s spectrum for commercial use, subject to public safety’s priority and possible preemption at times and in areas where the spectrum is needed by first responders. The immediate goal for FirstNet is to provide a broadband (4G LTE) network nationwide to carry data, although it will provide an option for voice communications as well. The cost of constructing and maintaining a nationwide network has been estimated by many experts to be in the tens of billions of dollars over the long term. The law anticipates that most of these costs will be covered by partnerships between FirstNet and the private sector in return for commercial access to FirstNet’s spectrum.
On March 30, 2017, the Department of Commerce and FirstNet announced their selection of AT&T to build a $46.5 billion wireless broadband network for first responders. The broad terms of this 25-year agreement between FirstNet and AT&T are:
AT&T was the only commercial vendor/partner selected under the FirstNet contract, which required it to deliver detailed deployment plans to each state and territory within 180 days. Governors would then have 90 days to decide whether to opt-in to FirstNet, or to opt-out and build their own Radio Access Network which must be interoperable with FirstNet. To date, fourteen states/jurisdictions (including AL, CO, GA, MA, MS, MO, NH, NC, OK, PA, RI, VT and WI) have opted to issue their own RFPs and provide an alternative to the nationwide FirstNet deployment, while Washington and Oregon have announced plans to issue a joint RFP as a preliminary step before making a final decision. AT&T timely delivered deployment plans to the 56 states and territories and to date, and almost 60% of these (33) have opted in to the FirstNet RAN.
States that have not yet made a decision on the AT&T/FirstNet proposal could be sizing up other choices. In this regard, one of the bidders eliminated from consideration, Rivada Mercury, has been urging smaller carriers to lobby their state officials and encourage them to evaluate their options. Two high-profile politicians appointed to Rivada’s board of directors, former Florida governor Jeb Bush and former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley, attended the CCA convention and criticized the FirstNet/AT&T proposal as a “pig in a poke” and lacking transparency/accountability. Rivada filed a lawsuit last November in the U.S. Court of Appeals of Federal Claims over what the company says is the illegal and wrongful exclusion of Rivada from the FirstNet procurement process.
According to industry reporting, Rivada seems to have made some progress in its efforts to get smaller wireless carriers behind its public safety proposal. Representatives from C Spire, Shentel and VTel Wireless each voiced support for Rivada’s proposed alternative to AT&T/FirstNet at the CCA event, and the company is working with U.S. Cellular to develop alternative network proposals in several states.
“These states [that are opting in to the AT&T/FirstNet proposal] are opting into something that is ill-defined and not in their best interest,” argued William Pirtle, SVP of wireless for Shentel, a regional wireless operator based in Virgina.
We are available to help interested clients reach out to AT&T with regard to a possible relationship concerning the FirstNet buildout in their area of operation.

The FCC has issued a Notice of Violation to the State of Hawaii for operation of an aeronautical utility mobile unit in Honolulu. Pursuant to a complaint from the Honolulu International Airport, the FCC located a mobile radio unit inside a State vehicle transmitting on the frequency 121.9 MHz while on the airport tarmac.
The FCC’s Rules state that at “an airport which has a control tower, control tower remote communications outlet station (RCO) or FAA flight service station in operation, communications by an aeronautical utility mobile station [such as the state’s mobile unit] are limited to the management of ground vehicular traffic.” Here, the FCC noted that the state vehicle’s mobile radio was operating continuously on the frequency 121.9 MHz, which caused harmful interference to the FAA’s SOC tower and other users at the airport.
When operating on radio frequencies, it is critically important that operations comply with all special conditions and the FCC’s rules (including any restrictions that may exist in the rules). A failure to do so could result in a finding of improper operation – which could lead to the imposition of significant fines.

The FCC has announced the Enhanced Specialized Mobile Radio (ESMR) dividing line in the 800 MHz band for ESMR and non-ESMR systems in the Canada Border Regions (CBR) 1 through 6. In 2008, the Bureau released a Report and Order establishing a post reconfiguration band plan in the 800 MHz band for licenses operating in the CBR. The CBRs encompass the geographic area in the U.S. within 140 kilometers (87 miles) of the border with Canada and are divided into eight regions.
In the 800 MHz Second Report and Order, the FCC directed the 800 MHz Transition Administrator (TA) to assign post-reconfiguration replacement channels to border area licensees while ensuring that ESMR systems were separated from non-ESMR systems in the CBRs by assigning non-ESMR licensees to replacement channels in the lower segment of the 800 MHz band while maintaining the upper portion of the band for licensees operating ESMR systems. The FCC noted that because U.S. licensees have limited access to primary spectrum in CBRs 1 through 6, the dividing line between ESMR and non-ESMR segments of the band would vary depending on the number of channels occupied by Business, Industrial, Land-Transportation (B/ILT) and high-site Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) licensees in each region. Thus, the Bureau advised the TA that it “may wait until replacement frequencies have been assigned and negotiations are complete” before identifying the dividing line for CBRs 1 through 6.
Through recommendations from Sprint, the TA has identified (and the FCC has accepted) the following dividing lines for each of the six CBRs, as follows:
| CBR 1 | Region 19 – New England | 863.300 MHz |
| CBR 2 | Region 19 – New England Region 30 – Upstate NY Region 55 – Western NY Region 55 – Western PA |
863.900 MHz 863.900 MHz 864.575 MHz 864.825 MHz |
| CBR 3 | Region 33 – Ohio Region 21 – Michigan |
862.925 MHz 862.925 MHz |
| CBR 4 | Region 22 – Minnesota Region 32 – North Dakota Region 25 – Montana Region 12 – Idaho |
864.150 MHz 864.150 MHz 864.150 MHz 864.150 MHz |
| CBR 5 | Region 43 – Washington State | 864.150 MHz |
| CBR 6 | Region 2 – Alaska | 862.250 MHz |
The boundaries of CBRS, based on longitude and distance to the US/Canadian border are, as follows:
Region 1 - 66°W - 71°W (0-100 km from border)
Region 2 - 70°W - 80° 30’ W (0-100 km from border)
Region 3 - 80° 30’ W - 85° W (0-100 km from border)
Region 4 - 85° W - 121° 30’ W (0-100 km from border)
Region 5 - 121° 30’ W - 127° W (0-140 km from border)
Region 6 - 127° W - 143° W (0-100 km from border)

Kongsberg Seatex AS requested a waiver of the Commission’s Rules to permit certification and use of maritime broadband radios (MBRs) in either the 5460-5660 MHz or 5850-5925 MHz bands. Kongsberg manufactures the MBR, which is a real-time, phased array digital radio that operates in the 5 GHz band. Kongsberg sought a waiver to permit equipment authorization and use of the MBR in United States waters on two channels (to allow the operation of two separate networks in the same area) in the 5460-5660 MHz or 5850-5925 MHz bands. A waiver is necessary because the Commission’s rules do not provide for the certification and use of the MBR in these frequency bands, since they are allocated for other purposes.
With regard to the 5460-5660 MHz band, the FCC noted that International Telecommunication Union Resolution 229 (Rev. WRC-12) restricts wireless access systems in the 5470-5725 MHz band to an EIRP of one watt in order to protect existing services in the band. Kongsberg’s proposed maximum EIRP of 60 dBm equates to 1000 watts, which far exceeds this limit. The FCC also noted that aircraft operate airborne weather radars in the 5460- 5470 MHz band for storm avoidance. As a result, the FCC concluded that it would not be in the public interest to grant a waiver that could interfere with other services, especially safety-related services, so we deny the waiver for the 5460-5660 MHz band.
With respect to the 5850-5925 MHz band, the FCC stated that Kongsberg’s waiver request discounts the possibility of interfering with Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) because “[t]he MBR system will normally be used at a large distance from shore and a power-regulating algorithm in the system will secure that the lowest power possible for good communication is used,” but provides no technical analysis of the interference potential. Since Kongsberg did not provide sufficient technical information, the FCC agreed with commenters that Kongsberg had not shown good cause for use of the band.

The FCC has issued a Notice of Violation to East Arkansas Broadcasters for failure to timely replace or repair obstruction lighting on its antenna tower at Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Rule Section 17.56 requires tower owners to repair or replace lights, automatic indicators or automatic alarm control or alarm systems to be completed “as soon as possible.” In this case, the Notice to Airman (NOTAM) database indicated that four NOTAMs had been issued since February 2017 (February 2, 2017 – expiring on March 2, 2017; May 18, 2017 – expiring on July 14, 2017; June 29, 2017 – expiring on September 29, 2017 and October 2, 2017 – which will expire on December 31, 2017.) In this case, the FCC stated that it has no information that the lighting system had been repaired since the first NOTAM was issued.
The FAA and FCC specify obstruction marking and lighting on certain antenna towers in order to ensure that the tower does not constitute a hazard to air navigation. Failing to repair lights and other equipment that is designed to ensure that tower lighting properly functions creates hazards that can result in fatal aviation accidents. Thus, it is critically important that repairs to obstruction lighting and associated automatic indicators and alarm equipment be completed as soon as humanly possible. Simply put, a delay of months is not acceptable and will come to the attention of the FCC’s Enforcement Bureau.

RADWIN Ltd and RADWIN, Inc. (Radwin) is a privately held corporation that manufacturers and distributes point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and non-line-of-sight broadband wireless equipment operating in the 5 GHz band. The affected devices are Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U-NII) devices that were marketed in violation of the FCC’s equipment authorization and marketing requirements. The noncompliant U-NII devices allowed users to modify device settings in a way that could cause harmful interference to Terminal Doppler Weather Radar systems operated by the FAA’s air traffic controllers to detect hazardous weather conditions for aircraft. The Commission’s requirements ensure that devices that emit radio frequency radiation comply with the Commission’s technical requirements and do not cause harmful interference to Federal agency public safety systems, such as TDWR, or to other authorized Federal and non-Federal communications systems, once the devices are marketed to the public. To settle this matter, Radwin admits that it violated the Commission’s equipment authorization and marketing rules with respect to these noncompliant U-NII devices, will implement a compliance plan, and will pay a $95,000 civil penalty. Additionally, through software updates, Radwin took remedial action in order to ensure that current and deployed devices are modified to disable the DFS mitigation and sensitivity features that were contained in each device that was previously sold.

The FCC has granted a waiver of its Part 15 equipment certification rules so that Evolv Technologies, Inc. (Evolv) can apply for FCC certification to market its Edge System – which is a walk-through security screening system intended for use at airports and other indoor locations under supervised operation. A rule waiver was needed because the Evolv device produces signal levels that exceed the limits in Part 15 for unlicensed devices. Evolv stated that the higher signal levels are necessary for the device to achieve sufficient signal-to-noise ratio for its operation, and to permit it to scan 600 or more persons per hour.
In justifying its rule waiver request, Evolv noted that its system has similar technical specifications (e.g., power and operating frequency range) to a security screening system that is manufactured by a competitor for which the Commission has previously granted a waiver of three Part 15 rules. Additionally, Evolv’s waiver request was supported by the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the Pentagon Force Protection Agency and American Airlines – who also expressed interest in deploying the Evolv technologies in their facilities. There were no comments in opposition.
In granting the rule waiver, the FCC noted that Evolv’s Edge device has the potential to “deliver strong public interest benefits.” In this regard, the FCC stated that the device is “designed to enable the rapid identification of concealed dangerous objects in places with high public foot traffic – including airports – where there is a strong interest in enhancing security and promoting safety of the public.” Further, the stronger signal level will allow the screening of people without requiring them to remove clothing or items in pockets as the walk through the screening device. Because of the importance of improving safety to the public in public places and the potential for the Edge device to provide these improvements, the FCC concluded that the public interest benefit in granting the waiver was “stronger” than applying the rule to the Edge device.

As we reported in our July 2017 Private User Update, the FCC took action to streamline and simplify its equipment authorization procedures for most radio-frequency devices such as cell phones, televisions, and other devices that are marketed, imported or operated within the United States. Those rules have now been published in the Federal Register and are effective as of November 2.
Under the prior regulatory scheme, the Commission has two different procedures – self approval processes such as verification and declaration of conformity and certification processes. Verification and Declaration of Conformity (DoC) are self-approval processes that are reserved for RF equipment that has an established testing methodology, low risk of causing harmful interference and a high compliance rate. The more rigorous certification process is reserved for equipment and/or devices that either employ new technologies, involve complex testing procedures, or have a high risk of causing harmful interference. Under the FCC’s newly adopted procedures, verification and DoC have been replaced with a single process – “Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity (SDoC). The Commission believes that this new process will be more efficient for RF devices that are well suited for self-approval – i.e., equipment that has a strong record of compliance and for which there is minimal risk of harmful interference. Equipment tested under the SDoC process is no longer required to display the FCC logo as was required for devices approved using the DoC process. Nonetheless, the FCC has maintained the requirement to display a compliance statement and the identity of the responsible party, and apply it to all self-approved devices, but permit it to be included with other information provided to the user instead of being displayed on the device itself. This compliance statement represents a new requirement for verified devices, but should not increase the burden on equipment manufacturers, since it replaces the requirement for a label on the device itself confirming the device’s compliance.
In order to permit equipment manufacturers to transition from the current verification of DoC systems to the SDoC regime, the FCC determined that while the new procedure will be effective immediately upon publication in the Federal Register (November 2, 2017), equipment manufacturers will be permitted to “continue to self-approve products using the existing DoC or verification procedures for up to one year from the effective date of the rules [November 2, 2018] if they so choose.” Further, the FCC has clarified that any equipment authorized under the verification or DoC procedures prior to the end of the transition period will remain valid without any further action by the FCC, so long as the equipment has not been modified in a manner that would require the issuance of a new equipment authorization under the FCC’s new rules.
The FCC also modified its labeling rules to comply with the Enhanced Labeling, Accessing, and Branding of Electronic Licenses Act (E-LABEL Act). The E-LABEL Act applies to all RF devices that have the “capability to digitally display labeling and regulatory information”, and requires the FCC to adopt rules which would allow manufacturers of RF devices to utilize electronic labeling in place of a physical label. In this regard, labeling must be accessible within 3 steps, meaning that the end-user must be able to access the information without having to drill down more than 3 steps. Further, manufacturers are required to provide easily accessible instructions on how to access regulatory information – either in the product packaging material, operating instruction booklet or on a product-related website. If a product-related website is used, then the packaging material must contain a statement that the information on accessing the regulatory information is available on the product-related Internet site, along with instructions on how to access the direct website. Further, RF devices that rely on another device to operate or on a wireless or remote connection and have no display must have a physical label unless the RF device can only be used in conjunction with a device that does have a screen. This is consistent with Canadian equipment authorization procedures.
The Commission also eliminated the requirement for importers to file with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) the FCC Form 740 – the FCC’s unique import declaration for RF devices brought into the United States. Because of the exponential increase in imported RF devices, this filing requirement became an unwieldy tool for the FCC and it placed an increasingly substantial burden on importers. At the same time, the CBP’s revised database and the increasing availability of product information on the Internet and through other means have reduced the practical need for the form.
Finally, the FCC updated its specific measurement procedures and clarified that certain standards may be used for demonstrating that RF equipment complies with the FCC’s rules. These changes allow the FCC to respond more quickly to changes in technology and international standards, and will speed the approval of new RF devices.

The FCC will consider an Order at its upcoming December Open Meeting in which it will (a) remove the presumption that commercial service wireless licenses be treated as Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS) and instead allow licensees to rely on the statutory definitions to identify the nature and regulatory treatment for their mobile services based upon how the spectrum is used rather than the spectrum band used by the licensee; (b) eliminate the outdated and incomplete list of radio services that meet the definition of “mobile service”; (c) eliminate unnecessary filings that some licensees must make to use spectrum as Private Mobile Radio Service (PMRS) rather than CMRS and (d) harmonize the FCC’s licensing rules across spectrum bands by removing rules that apply to some bands, but not other.
The FCC’s draft Order would remove Section 20.9 of the Commission’s Rules in favor of using the definitions in the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the Act) and the FCC’s rules which clearly show what services constitute CMRS and PMRS. As a result, our private user clients should no longer be required to obtain rule waivers to utilize spectrum that has traditionally been CMRS, to meet private internal communications needs as long as the proposed operation will meet the FCC’s technical rules associated with that spectrum band. With the elimination of Rule Section 20.9, private user applicants would be able to meet their communications needs more quickly. Likewise, switching between CMRS and PMRS should become easier, since doing so would entail nothing more than a traditional license modification application without any additional showing. It is important to note that adoption of this rule change would in no way change the respective definitions of CMRS and/or PMRS services nor the regulatory obligations associated with CMRS operations.
Likewise, the Commission’s Order would also eliminate Rule Section 20.7, which contained an “outdated and incomplete list of some, but not all services that meet the definition of ‘mobile service” as used in the Act.” In so doing, the Commission acknowledges that the definition of CMRS in Rule Section 20.3 clearly defines “mobile service” in a manner that is consistent with the statutory definition in the Act. As a result, this change would not affect the application of the term “mobile service” under the Act or the FCC’s Rules.
We expect that the FCC will take favorable action on this item at its upcoming open meeting on December 14, 2017. That said, it is important to note that while the FCC has released an advanced draft of its Order, there could be further substantive changes following the FCC’s formal adoption of this item.

You can text your emergency to 911 in the Long Beach area starting Friday By JEREMIAH DOBRUCK | jdobruck@scng.com | Press-Telegram
Starting Friday, anyone with an emergency in Long Beach and most other nearby cities can text 911 for help, authorities announced this week. On Dec. 1, Long Beach police, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Downey police, Signal Hill police and the vast majority of other nearby jurisdictions will launch their text-to-911 services, said Reginald Harrison, Long Beach’s director of disaster preparedness and emergency communications. Most of Los Angeles County is included in the program, according to Harrison. Texting allows people who are deaf or hearing impaired to contact first-responders directly, city officials said. It is also especially useful for people in dangerous situations where someone might have to remain quiet, authorities said. “It is important that all residents are able to contact police, fire and emergency medical services when needed,” said Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia. “Texting is widely used to communicate so it only makes sense that we allow residents to use this technology, Text to 911, for emergency services as well.” But Harrison emphasized that calling 911 is still the best way to get help. “Call if you can — text if you can’t,” is the slogan being adopted by Long Beach and other agencies implementing the program. For texting 911 to work, the cell phone sending the message must have locations services enabled, according to Long Beach. Harrison said that helps pinpoint which jurisdiction needs to receive the message. Local law enforcement agencies have been testing the texting program since August, according to Harrison. Until then, anyone who tried to text 911 would get a message bounced back saying they need to call. After a few months of experimenting, Harrison said local law enforcement agencies are satisfied with how the system functions and are ready to roll out the program in coordination on Friday. “What we need to do now is to educate the public on how to use it,” he said. Texters should be clear and concise in their messages and always include a location where the emergency is happening, according to Harrison. “The location is very, very important,” he said. “Unlike a telephone call, we don’t get a location.” Right now, text messages must be in English, although support for other languages may be added later. Also, officials cautioned, the system can’t yet receive photos or videos. Long Beach also offered a few more tips for texting 911:
A complete list of law enforcement agencies participating in the program wasn’t immediately available. |
