TETRA interoperability
TETRA is the first and so far only digital PMR
standard that has created an open and
competed multi-vendor market

National and international dimensions
Multi-vendor market
Process to achieve certified interoperability
Achievements until today
Conclusions
Interoperability concepts
• Organisational interoperability “Capability for agencies to
– Between agencies
– Between people
• Regional interoperability
– Between regions
– Across national borders
• Technical interoperability
– Between equipment
communicate with each
other”
“Capability for peer
agencies to communicate
across borders”
“Process to ensure that
equipment from multiple
vendors are compatible”
Organisational interoperability:
solutions
Operating procedures
– Agreements
– Training
Dedicated radio channels
– Common technical specification
– Agreed procedures
Radio spectrum harmonisation
– In some form this is a must
Technology harmonisation – standards
– Necessary to gain radio compatibility
Shared networks
– By far the most efficient tool
– Requires high-tech system to ensure privacy
– Both operational benefit and cost benefit
BEST RESULT
Regional interoperability:
solutions
1. Political & organisational readiness
2A. Conventional technical measures
•
•
•
•
•
Extra equipment like cellphones
Extended coverage across border or repeaters
Control room interconnect by wireline
Radio swap between control rooms e.g. Belgium & France
Radio swap between users
2B. Network interconnect
•
•
•
•
TETRA Inter-System Interface (ISI)
Three-country pilot Belgium – Germany – The Netherlands
Cross-network PMR functionality, first time
True cross-agency & cross-border opportunity
Technical IOP: TETRA
Interoperability certification
“Process to ensure that equipment from
multiple vendors are compatible”
– Problem-free operation
– Wanted functionality
– In practice it is about protocol conformance
TETRA Interoperability
• The TETRA Interoperability (IOP) concentrates on technical
interoperability certification of multi-vendor TETRA
equipment.
• Successful IOP certification is fundamental in creation of
open multi-vendor market.
• Open multi-vendor market is fundamental for the success
of TETRA - and it has happened
Benefits of open multi-vendor
market
User benefits
•
•
•
•
wide choice of compatible certified terminals
specialised product for special needs
continuous and genuine competition
less dependency - lower risk of market
disturbances
Industry benefits
• wider market, bigger volumes
• more possibility to invest – faster
product creation
• longer lifetime of market
TETRA MoU Association runs the IOP
certification process to guarantee
open multi-vendor market
The certified TETRA interfaces
Direct Mode (DMO) air interface
- already certified
Trunked (voice + data) air interface
- already certified

TETRA IOP achievements (1)
• TETRA Interoperability Profile (TIP) documents
available to members
– in total 28 TIP specifications published by today
• TETRA Interoperability Test Plan documents
available to members
– in total 15 Test Plan documents published
See list of documents
in the handout material
TETRA IOP achievements (2)
• Certification test sessions arranged at manufacturer’s
premises to run the test cases specified in the Test
Plans
• TETRA IOP Certificates are public documents and
published at the TETRA MoU website
– 69 certificates published in 2004
–16 certificates published during 1Q 2005, 7 during 2Q
Most customers today require their equipment supplier to
provide IOP certificates on the features they purchase

TETRA IOP certification results
• 7 companies have received
TETRA infrastructure certificates
• 9 companies have received
TETRA terminal certificates in
trunked mode
• 6 companies have received
TETRA DMO certificates
THE AMOUNT OF CERTIFICATES VARIES
BETWEEN COMPANIES – AND IS GROWING
- see status lists in handout package
Speed of innovation
Who else can do this – TETRA already does:
• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with integral GPS receiver today?
• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with 65 000 colour display today?
• Which other PMR technology delivers
handsets with web & WAP browsers today?
Quick questionnaire in TETRA seminar in Oslo
March 2005 revealed close to 30 new TETRA
terminal models being launched during the last 3
years
Only open competition can boost this amount of
product innovations and R&D investment
Conclusions
New dimensions of cooperation:
• Between agencies: shared network best tool
• Across borders: Common European standard
TETRA created multi-vendor market for
PMR:
• True Interoperability is reality
– Today in air interfaces (trunked & DMO)
– Tomorrow in network interfaces (ISI)
• Customers benefit in
– Price competition
– Wide selection of equipment to choose
• TETRA demonstrates fastest product
development in PMR business
TETRA IOP certification
status
• Available TIP specifications and
IOP test plans
• Published TETRA IOP certificates
– System Manufacturers
– Terminal Manufacturers
