Public Safety Driving Community Broadband
 Wireless broadband networks can be deployed quickly
for use by city employees and safety personnel
 Multiple sources of government funding are available to
help support these public safety networks
 Once a network is in place, it can be used by multiple
members of the community:
 Schools and universities
 Hospitals and clinics
 Local merchants, hospitality and tourism providers
 Sports and cultural venues
 Wireless is an attractive way to cover large sections of
cities, suburbs or rural areas not served by DSL or
cable

Public Safety Communication: Drivers for Change
Interoperability and Collaboration for Emergency Services
Public Safety solutions
using mobile devices and
wireless broadband can
transform how the
emergency services
manage information flow
and communications in
order to offer dramatically
improved government
services during incidents
and disasters.

Emergency services, civic
leaders and government
agencies need the right
information, at the right time, in
order to make the right
decisions during major
incidents. They need
interoperability across agency
boundaries and situational
awareness

Networked and Sensor Enabled Surveillance for Public Safety
derive significant benefits from a Digital Community Network
 Threat Model
–Insider/Employee Threat
–Tailgating / Bringing in packages
–User Threat
–Passengers / Contractors /Visitor –
screening
–Outsider Threat
Tripwire
–Addressed by perimeter security
 Response
–During the attack -- real-time alerts
Motion Detection
–After the fact – investigative / forensic
role
–Predictive / Preventive – data mining to
discover unusual activity.
Object Removal
 Other Non-security applications
Abandoned Object

The Digital Community of the Future: Summary
We can connect to the “Community
Network” everywhere through a wide range
of devices
Information can be obtained instantly
Each device in the city become part of a
dynamic mesh or “grid” of wireless devices
We can move “seamlessly” between
different connections without interruption
Public service workers communicate using
common, flexible, secure infrastructure
City maintenance and environmental costs
are lower
Quality of life is higher

Broadband Wireless drives Digital Communities
Communities that will thrive in the increasingly turbulent market
environment will be those that can transform themselves by
connecting government services with their populace, via low-cost
Internet access, fusing the best of emerging technologies and new
business models to accelerate value creation.
