CITIZEN-TO-AUTHORITY
COMMUNICATION
• Completed standardization of IMS originating calls to an
Emergency Services IP network (ESInet) and Legacy Selective
Router (SR)
• Completed a joint effort with TIA to develop the first U.S. SMS
Text to 9-1-1 standards solution (J-STD-110) in March 2013
• Allows any end user device with SMS capabilities and a valid SMS
subscription to launch a text message communication with a PSAP
• Provides a multi-carrier, multi-vendor, multi-PSAP nationwide solution
with a vendor-neutral common architecture
• Implemented by carriers in May 2014
• ATIS will continue developing solutions for Multimedia
Emergency Services (MMES: beyond just text) and the
evolution to NG9-1-1

CITIZEN-TO-AUTHORITY
COMMUNICATION
• Completed an operational guide to the National Emergency
Number Association’s (NENA’s) i3 standard to support
interface from IMS-originating networks to NENA’s ESInets
• Working on an IMS911 service architecture to map the IMS
functional components and functions into NENA’s i3 ESInet
• Working on a standard to support location conveyance to
Over-The-Top (OTT) Services for emergency services

AUTHORITIES-TO-CITIZENS
COMMUNICATIONS
• Completed multiple Commercial Mobile Alert System
(CMAS) deliverables (also known as Wireless Emergency
Alerts (WEAs))
• Delivers alerts issued by the President, those involving immediate
threats to safety/life, and AMBER alerts (missing people)
• Currently developing CMAS standards in support of international
roaming and Canadian
requirements
• Aligned with 3GPP
specifications
• An example of the
results of this effort is
available in this news
story
GSC-18, 22-23 July 2014, Sophia Antipolis

AUTHORITIES-TO-CITIZENS
COMMUNICATIONS
• Working with Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s)
fourth Communications Security, Reliability and
Interoperability Council (CSRIC IV) to establish requirements
for Enhanced WEA and next generation WEA (see the
Regulatory Activities slide for more information)
• In June 2014, completed report to the FCC on requirements
and standards related to WEA testing
GSC-18, 22-23 July 2014, Sophia Antipolis

AUTHORITIES-TO-AUTHORITIES
COMMUNICATION
• ATIS is a member of the National Public Safety Telecommunications
Council (NPSTC) and is supporting public safety mission critical voice
requirements for the 700 MHz LTE broadband networks via
modifications to existing and development of new 3GPP and ATIS
standards
• ATIS’ objective is to ensure a global standard is developed by a global
organization to fulfill Public Safety requirements of countries around
the globe
• ATIS is providing a platform where North American (NA)
requirements can be discussed towards the goal of capturing them
in 3GPP specifications
• ATIS, in collaboration with TIA, is also working on a standard for
Public Safety Mission Critical Push to Talk (MCPTT) voice
interoperation between Land Mobile Radio (LMR) and LTE Systems
GSC-18, 22-23 July 2014, Sophia Antipolis
8
AUTHORITIES-TO-AUTHORITIES
COMMUNICATION
• ATIS continues to support the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security (DHS)/Office of Emergency Communications (OEC),
standardizing Government Priority industry requirements and
providing input into other fora (e.g., ITU, IETF, 3GPP, BBF)
• Government priority services defines network capabilities that increase
the probability that critical government personnel have access to
essential services (voice, video, data) during times of access and
network congestion
• Active work items include:
• LTE and IMS Priority Parameters for Supporting National
Security/Emergency Preparedness (NS/EP) Priority Communications
• Dynamic Priority for Next Generation Secure Communications
• LTE Access Network Security Requirements for NS/EP NGN Priority
Services
• Evolved Packet Core (EPC) Call Flows for NGN GETS (ETS)

NEW CATEGORY:
DEVICE-TO-DEVICE
• 3GPP and other SDOs are working to enable direct
communication between users/devices, with the initial focus
on public safety. ATIS is participating in these activities and
providing requirements/input for Device-to-Device (D2D)
Proximity Services
• Potential future topics:
• Secured M2M Communication (e.g., Smart Grid)
• Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
GSC-18, 22-23 July 2014, Sophia Antipolis
10
IP TRANSITION RELATED ACTIVITIES
• ATIS is deeply engaged in the transition to All-IP networks
• With this transition, the infrastructure associated with public
safety must be taken into account since legacy technologies/
services are still in wide use as critical infrastructure by
public safety and industrial customers; examples include:
• Alarm circuits to local fire and police departments
• Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) circuits to towers and alarms
• Circuits that monitor railroad crossings
• Circuits for sensors at gas and power company locations
• Meter and alarming circuits related to power grid
• Circuits supporting underground communications
GSC-18, 22-23 July 2014, Sophia Antipolis
11
IP TRANSITION RELATED ACTIVITIES
• ATIS launched a Public Safety-Related Applications (PSRA)
Task Force and has developed a preliminary view of the
current environment and challenges
• PSRAs involve a diverse set of agencies with unique requirements
• In most cases, circuit records (only) do not provide sufficient data on
the underlying applications
• Many existing requirements are based on the characteristics of the
legacy copper network
• Feedback with relevant industry groups and associations is
necessary to develop transitional and future solutions
• Sharing of the findings and customer education are essential
• Outreach with other organizations was initiated to
collaboratively address this topic

ATIS ROLE IN NA REGULATORY ACTIVITIES
• ATIS is a member of the FCC’s fourth Communications
Security, Reliability and Interoperability Council (CSRIC IV)
• Provides recommendations and critical input to the FCC to ensure
optimal security and reliability of communications systems, including
telecommunications, media, and public safety
• ATIS has representation in many CSRIC WGs, as many are focused on
ATIS deliverables and align with existing ATIS work plans
• Multiple Working Groups (WGs) established to address a wide array
of topics, including
• NG9-1-1 (Text-to-911, Location Accuracy and Testing for Voice-over-LTE
•
•
•
Networks, Specification for Indoor Location Accuracy Test Bed)
Wireless Emergency Alerts (Testing, Geographic Targeting, Message Content and
Character Limitation)

ATIS ROLE IN NA REGULATORY ACTIVITIES
• ATIS provides critical input to the FCC on various topics
representing industry. Examples include:
• Comments filed by ATIS to provide the FCC with feedback related to
the deployment of text-to-911 and the work being conducted by
ESIF-NGES and WTSC on these issues. (04/04/2014)
• Letter sent by ATIS to the FCC TAC's Transition to IP Working Group to
provide them with the PSTN Transition Focus Group Assessment and
Recommendations (ATIS-I-0000034) to assist them in the completion
of the Working Group's mission. (04/01/2014)
• Letter sent by ATIS on behalf of ESIF to CSRIC IV, Working Group 1,
Task Group 3 to provide recommendations on regional test beds.

•
•
changes
Provide guidance to the FCC on its NG9-1-1 and Multimedia
Emergency Services to NG9-1-1 rulemaking efforts
Work proactively to support Public Safety needs and the 700
MHz public safety broadband network
Focus on regional needs (North America) and in
coordination with global directions
Coordinate/collaborate with other organizations where
appropriate (e.g., 3GPP, APCO, TIA, ITU, IETF, NPSTC, NENA,
etc.)

CHALLENGES
• Delivering standards to satisfy aggressive regulatory mandate target
•
•
•
•
dates such that reliable implementations can be deployed (per target
dates)
Ensure that standards for critical communications are developed in
global standard organizations while supporting regional requirements
Regarding E9-1-1, the NG9-1-1 standards can get far ahead of
deployments given that there are 6,000+ PSAPs in the United States
and there are generally different deployment timeframes
Regarding MMES, develop a reliable solution that does not have the
limitations of SMS, and define the interface to the PSAPs
Regarding OTT Services, anticipate the potential business relationship
between the OTT service providers, the wireless carriers, and the
public safety providers to ensure a reliable and encompassing
solution
