Brief History
Project MESA is a transatlantic public safety partnership between European
Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and Telecommunications IndustriesAssociation (TIA) that represents the first international initiative to involve users andorganizations from the Public Safety, Disaster Response, Civil Defence sectors, TIAand ETSI
Recognized that ETSI and TIA were independently working on similar projects
Challenges faced by PPDR professionals are similar throughout the world
In May 2000 ETSI and TIA signed a Partnership Project Agreement (PPA) inWashington DC to work collaboratively by providing a forum in which the keyplayers can contribute actively to the elaboration of MESA specifications
In January 2001 the partnership agreement was ratified in the City of Mesa (Arizona) Projects name given in recognition of the signature city MESA = Mobility forEmergency and SafetyApplications
2002 first documents published with Statement of Requirements (SoR)
2005 System Overview and revision of SoR completed
2007 Project MESA system High Level Reference Architecture completed andFunctional Requirements derived from SoR by TSG
Observers : the Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA) of Korea
the Telecommunications Standards Advisory Council of Canada (TSACC)

Objectives
MESA aims at producing globally applicable technical specifications for digital
mobile broadband technology, aimed initially at the sectors of public safety and
disaster response allowing a co-ordination of regional/international responses toemergencies, disasters and monitoring day-by-day services

Project MESA
Goal is to coordinate capabilities/develop technology specifications
for interoperable mobile broadband data for Public Protection and
Disaster Relief (PPDR)
Auto-establishing, self-healing, robust, ad-hoc networking
Bit rates above 2 Mbits/sec
Independent of radio spectrum
Secure end-to-end transparent encryption
Seamless switching to global broadband infrastructure
Enhanced access and terminal capabilities
7/31/2019 CDMA MESA Presentation

Main MESA Technical System Features
To fulfil user requirements MESA systems must be: reliable
able to ensure multiple levels of security and encryption easy and fast to deploy
able to support Quality of Service (QoS)
flexible adaptable
reconfigurable scalable
self-organizing
interoperable with existing private and public infrastructures
Broadband for mobile
low-power consumable able to locate nodes, sensors, robots

Activities
ETSI and TIA support the administrative needs while the technical
work required to develop the Project MESA specifications is
performed by members
Members meet every 6 months (alternating between European
and North American venues) to coordinate program activities
and to review project documents for approval
Between the meetings, members coordinate specification
development and other activities primarily during phone
conferences and through e-mail

How we operate
14 meetings have taken place so far, 7 in North-America 7 in Europe.
Next meeting (MESA #15) 30 October to 1 November, 2007 in Kista - Sweden hosted
by Ericsson
Electronic working on Mailing lists available for
all the groups and open to the everyone

MESA system of systems approach
Develop MESA capabilities as a system of
systems maximizing usage of existing
communications technologies andinfrastructures.
MESA specification development is taking a
technology neutral approach and resulting
implementations may involve private and/orcommercial technology and systems, along
with new technologies still under
development.

Statement of user Requirements (SoR)
Developed within the user-focused Service Specification Group (SSG)of MESA and approved by the Project MESA Steering Committee (SC)
in 2002, revised in 2005
Intended to describe and define functional and operational user
requirements, capabilities, applications and scenarios that involvebroadband air interface data rates
documents the details of PPDR scenarios, describing the types of
information that are routinely required to support PPDR activities
technology needs within Public Protection & Disaster Relief (PPDR)
discipline
Emphasis on applications identified by users/agencies as key
requirements, but which current applied technology may not fully
deliver

TSG => Technical Specification Process
Identification and derivation of the System TechnicalRequirements from the SoR
The mapping consists in reorganizing the breadth of information
provided in the SoR into a logical framework that could be used to
identify the system technical requirements across the different
PPDR scenarios
TSG SYS is going to derive a generic set of MESA communications
requirements (bandwidth, delay, jitter, QoS, security, priority
access, scalability) that address the requirements of all PPDR
scenarios

Successes
Achievement of the Statement of requirementsdocuments
represents the first trans-Atlantic consolidated view
expressed directly by the professional users
it represents a unique source of information in the aimof understanding the often very difficult and dangerous
working environments, which the user community is
facing, such that industry can provide the most effective
and accurate technical solutions. Project MESA High Level Network Reference
Architecture
These are living documents and additionalinput is welcome to further refine them

Current Status
Creation of North American and European user focusgroups to validate the functional requirements
developed by TSG and derive harmonized functional
requirements
North American focus group is currently working tovalidate the functional requirements (expected 1st week
of November 2007)
Work closely with various groups (NPSTC, BBWG,PSBL, PSST, etc.) involved with 700 Mhz D Statement
of Requirements development

Next Steps
European focus group validation of functionalrequirements
Continue to evolve SoR, network architecture and
functional requirements to reflect any new needs
Perform technology gapping analysis for the
technologies proposed (TSG process)
Validation of gapping analysis (SSG process)
Derive and validate technical specifications
