It's no secret that the public safety wireless industry is one that's resistant to change. And yet, we find ourselves in a world of exponential innovation that our small wireless industry is not immune to. While things may not be moving at light speed for our industry, we are certainly at some major inflection points that will dramatically change the way our industry will look in the future. This presentation will provide a snapshot of the wireless industry, and all the changes taking place. Topics will include broadband integration, cybersecurity, AI, LEO satellites, infrastructure, and system sustainment.
Learning Objectives:
Attendees will receive an understanding of the current landscape for wireless systems, including technologies, coverage levels, frequency bands, and capabilities. This will help operators understand where their particular systems land in the nationwide landscape and provide context for the changes taking place.
Attendees will learn about all of the changes coming to the wireless industry, including broadband integration, direct-to-satellite communication, cybersecurity, and AI. This will help attendees contemplate technologies they may want to adopt in the future, and account for what the future of wireless may look like.
Attendees will learn about the wide-range challenges facing system operators, including lifecycle replacements, system sustainment challenges, rising costs, and aging infrastructure.
