Alea, Qualcomm, and Softil provided live demonstrations of 5G Sidelink as a direct mode solution at the ETSI Mission Critical Services (MCX) Plugtest and the TCCA CCBG meetings in Krakow.
Technology Deployments, MCX Ecosystem
Samsung Networks and Etherstack are trialing the Mission Critical Push-to-X (MCPTX) solution in Australia. A first for the region, the trial includes the incorporation of Etherstack standards-based P25 Interworking Function.
Global Trends, MCX Ecosystem
The GCF and TCCA efforts to create a foundation for 3GPP MC-PTT conformance testing have borne fruit, and test laboratories can now begin issuing conformance marks. This progress is an essential driver for economy-of-scale and broad interoperability. But the impact may vary depending on national priorities.
Told In Their Own Words, Product Dynamics
In this live demonstration of DFR support, Aerodome highlights its integrations with remote Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) robotic docks, Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD), and airspace monitoring systems that include ADSB and radar.
Told In Their Own Words, Product Dynamics
Dryad Networks focuses on early fire detection through distributed sensors mounted in forests. Clever design choices, including solar, supercapacitors, LoRaWAN, and up-link flexibility, make it a solid complement to infrared cameras and satellite systems for next-generation rapid wildland fire observation.
