Track: Next Generation Emergency Communications Services |
End-to-end NG911 - Scenario testing: Across the country and across the Atlantic |
End to end testing of Next Generation 911 networks is an essential part of the current effort to port 911 and 112 type services off of circuit switched and onto IP-based networks. The goal is to ensure that all the elements - no matter which vendors produced them and which service providers' networks they traverse - cooperate to carry the call and the administrative, personal and medical information that internet protocol and web technologies enable. Our speakers will describe US-based and trans-Atlantic Next Generation emergency call testing performed this year in the RTC Lab on the lab's NG911 test bed. These tests explored interesting scenarios that will likely occur as people roam the country and the world while using phone services based in their home states or countries. During the demonstration portion, you will see calls from a T-Mobile cell tower that are routed to appropriate PSAPs associated with the RTC LAb's testbed. |
