The University of CaliforniaAN OVERVIEW

• Faculty includes 17 Nobel laureates and 266
  members of the National Academy of Sciences, more
  than any other college or university in the
  United States.
• More UC academic programs are consistently rated
  among the top 10 nationally than those of any
  other public or private university.

• In federal funding alone, UC receives
  approximately 10 percent of all dollars awarded
  nationwide to colleges and universities for
  research.
• Ten percent of all Ph.D.'s awarded in the United
  States come from UC.
• 166,700 students, plus a faculty and staff of
  154,200 (including 18,000 at DOE laboratories)

University of California Statewide 800 MHz Radio
System Project Overview

• General
• Each campus is a city where all services are
  government provided (including some that are
  typically not in a normal government
  environment)
• Systems are 95 portable
• Statewide bid, local multi-year procurement
• Award based on life-cycle cost (15/10/5)
• Contract maintenance

• Public Safety
• Extensive in-building coverage requirements
• Full-service police departments use auto,
  bicycle, canine, foot, horseback and other
  contemporary means of transportation
• Need for continuous EMS, fire and law enforcement
  day-to-day interoperability
• Desire for future upgrade to digital modulation
  and MCT/MDTs

5
University of California Statewide 800 MHz Radio
System System Objectives

• Replace worn-out equipment (last statewide
  procurement was made in 1973)
• Consolidate all users in one band on common
  channels statewide
• Enhance coverage, particularly in-building
• Solve radio congestion in metropolitan areas
• Enhance day-to-day interoperability for EMS, fire
  and law enforcement
• Take advantage of trunking features and services,
  including interconnect
• Provide emergency reporting system

6
University of California Statewide 800 MHz Radio
System Key User Needs

• Minimum of 3 tiers of compliant subscriber
  equipment
• Commonality of functions
• ID structure that supported multi-campus
  environment
• Minimum of 12 systems and 200 talk-groups for
  public safety portables
• Vendor willing to make 5 year price commitment
  for both equipment procurement maintenance
• Upgrade to Project 25 desirable ()

8
A Recommended Approach Lifecycle-Based
Procurement

• Procurement evaluation by
• Detailed, point-based criteria
• Life cost of system, including
• Accessories
• Maintenance

9
Project 34 and the PSPPA Natural Partnership

• High Speed Data needs are worldwide
• Public safety requirements are universal
• A review of Project 34 Statement of Requirements
  by ETSI/DAWS revealed a high degree of
  commonality in trans-Atlantic needs
• Development of a common Statement of
  Requirements will take place within the PSPP
  System Specification Group (SSG)
• PSPP will reduce the trans-Atlantic capability
  gap recently identified in a study by Oxford
  University as a major destabilizing force within
  the Western World.

10
Project 34/PSPP Goals Match University Needs

• Obtain maximum radio spectrum efficiency.
• Ensure competition in system life cycle
  procurements.
• Provide effective, efficient and reliable
  interoperability.
• Provide for graceful migration to future systems
  and technologies.

11
Project 34/PSPP Objectives Match University
Requirements

• Provide transparent network for multiple
  standardized data protocols.
• Allow two-way transmission of data at gross
  channel rates up to 384 kilobits in 700 MHz band.
• Allow for seamless site-to-site subscriber unit
  hand off in wide-area systems.

• Allow for multiple levels of security network
  integrity.
• Provide for a network design that is capable of
  rapidly passing traffic with minimum errors
  through various harsh environments.
• Support system and network switching that will
  allow subscriber units to access the particular
  network(s) they are authorized to access.

12
Project 34/PSPP General Services Applicable to UC
System

• Mobile/Personal Data Computer/Terminal
  Applications
• Transmission of data queries and responses,
  electronic mail, geographic location,
  incident-specific data and intelligence, and
  command control information, including
• Electronic Messaging to single or multiple
  departments, including other personnel and other
  public safety providers.
• Geographic Position Data transmission of
  location data, determined by geographic position
  technology or other means, automatically or on
  demand, to other locations.
• Transmission of Reports Transmission of forms
  and reports from mobile and remote locations.
  This capability will be used to exchange various
  types of forms and reports, reducing paper
  transactions, increasing field time, and speeding
  transmission of vital information to command and
  administrative staff.

13
Project 34/PSPP General Services Applicable to UC
System

• Video
• Incident Video Some incidents require real-time
  video. While these incidents may be infrequent
  in some areas and some disciplines, others have a
  more frequent demand for real-time video. The
  capability must exist for both point-to-point and
  broadcast use of this video.
• Still-Photographs Users require the ability to
  transmit still photographs on demand to other
  locations.
• Surveillance Video Temporary monitoring of high
  crime areas and other incident scenes requiring
  real-time video monitoring.

14
Project 34/PSPP User-Specific Services Applicable
to UC System

• Criminal Justice Fingerprints, mugshots, and
  other NCIC-2000 type data, robotics data and
  video, surveillance monitoring.
• Emergency Management Rapid access to large
  databases for disaster logistics, evacuation and
  personnel relocation.
• Emergency Medical, Fire, and Related Life
  Property Protection Services Patient care (EEG,
  EKG), robotics data and video for hazardous
  materials response.
• General Government Facilities management, remote
  public information systems, telemetry.
• Land Natural Resource Management Facilities
  management, telemetry, and wildfire detection.

15
Project 34/PSPP Development Potential
