Track: Mission Critical Services

  • Exploring MCV QoE Through Live Demonstrations of KPIs

    In this mission-critical voice (MCV) demonstration, we will introduce the capabilities of our Quality of Experience (QoE) measurement system. Attendees will experience firsthand the system’s push-to-talk performance under live testing conditions with fluctuating signal strengths. This demonstration will explore the impact of these key variations on QoE, examine the key performance indicators (KPIs) critical to […]


  • A Platform for Experimental Research in Mission-Critical Voice Communications

    This demonstration shows a testbed designed and developed at Columbia University for human-subject experiments with mission-critical voice (MCV). The testbed includes Raspberry-Pi-based emulated MCV user terminals, a modified version of the “Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes” game, software for managing the human subject studies, and an environment for data collection and analysis. At Columbia, the […]


  • A Broadband Interoperability Platform for First Responder LTE Networks

    Different long-term evolution (LTE) communications services are not inherently compatible and need translation between networks. This demonstration shows communications between push –to-talk smartphones connected to AT&T’s FirstNet® Built with AT&T Service, Southern Linc’s CriticalLinc™ Service, and proprietary push-to-talk BeON™ from L3Harris. Each of these networks connect to Catalyst’s IntelliLink Interworking Server which manages and converts […]


  • Empowering First Responders: Coordinated Response with FirstNet Technologies

    Participate in an immersive scenario, where participants engage with FirstNet Mission Critical Push-to-Talk (MCPTT) and Rapid Response technologies to manage a reported suspicious package situation. In addition, engage in a series of micro demos featuring technologies such as the FirstNet MCPTT solutions, Axon, Intrepid Response for FirstNet, and Cell Booster Pro App. From tracking geo-markers […]


  • Zebra’s 5G FirstNet Capable handhelds and tablets

    Attendees will see how Zebra’s 5G FirstNet Capable handhelds and tablets can enable mission critical data and voice communications from anywhere — inside the command office, vehicle, and on the move — all from one device. This technology provides public safety users access to computer aided dispatch (CAD), mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT), location intelligence, incident […]


  • Zebra’s EMS Triage and Patient Tracking Solution

    This demonstration will show the integration of technologies that improve patient triaging and patient tracking workflows during mass casualty and other disaster incidents. This solution allows for a streamlined linkage of records across disparate electronic medical record systems throughout the continuum of patient care (pre-hospital to hospital all the way through discharge).


  • Digital Patient Tracking and Triage System (DPTTS)

    This demonstration will showcase the Digital Patient Tracking and Triage System (DPTTS). DPTTS enables next-generation digital medical triage, specifically allowing first responders to transmit patients’ biomedical data to respective medical/emergency care facilities using wearable biosensors. The mission impact of this technology is for medical triage and patient tracking tool that bridges the gap from incident/emergency […]


  • Delivering interoperable communications through 3GPP MCX Interworking Function

    Attendees will see a demonstration of a mission-critical service (MCX) solution combining a 3GPP compliant interworking function showcasing inter-RF subsystem interface (ISSI), console subsystem interface (CSSI), and digital fixed station interference (DFSI) connectivity with an APCO P25 radio system and dispatch console solution showing complete interoperability with Mission-Critical push-to-talk. This will highlight the ability to […]


  • Softil’s Solution for Live MCX Interoperability

    This demonstration shows interoperability between currently deployed mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) products developed by a number of Softil partners using the Softil BEEHD mission critical services (MCX) software development kit. All devices in the demonstration are connected to the live MCX network via Long-Term Evolution and additional wireline/wireless interfaces.


  • Secure Broadband Push-to-Talk (PTT) with Comprehensive Interoperability Options

    This demonstration will show cross carrier interoperability and native inter-agency communications, critical to mutual aid scenarios. Technology in the demonstration includes broadband push-to-talk (PTT) operating on commercial smartphones and tablets (iOS and Android) and Internet of Things (IoT) radio devices (Tait AXIOM and Siyata SD7). It will also include a demonstration of land mobile radio […]
