10.3 Specific inconsistencies in EMMG protocol
The client_id value is not the same as the one in channel_setup on the current TCP connection. Data_id parameter value in a stream_status message or in a data_provision message is different from the one given in the stream_setup message for the same stream_id (V2 only).

10.4 Specific inconsistencies in C(P)SIG protocol
The protocol_version value is not 2. The transaction_id parameter value in a response is different from the one of the associated request. If this parameter value is out of range, the "Invalid value for a DVB parameter" error is issued. In a channel_status message the (P)SIG or C(P)SIG specific parameter values are not...

4.2 Interworking
Interworking is the ability of multiple networks to co-operate and together render a service. It is an essential feature when parties involved in communication services are not connected to the same network. Those parties would typically be end-users in a voice communication. They could also be a client and a server in...

4.2.1 Voice interworking requirements
Voice interworking is required between TETRA and other voice networks listed in clause 4.1. Most TETRA voice communications are a combination of group calls and simplex and/or duplex "one to one" calls. The interworking of duplex calls to PSTN, GSM and UMTS users, where most of the installed base of voice terminals are...

4.2.2 Data interworking requirements
Data interworking requirements are of two main sorts: • TETRA users wanting access to servers in other fixed or mobile networks; and • users on other fixed or mobile networks wanting exchange of data with TETRA users. There are requirements for both. However, the possibility to access the outside world from the TETRA n...

4.3 Roaming
Roaming has implications on the terminal as well as on the SwMI. Here we consider the user requirements for the roaming service and therefore we do not make explicit distinction whether the implications are at the terminal level or at the SwMI level. Roaming between different TETRA networks is essential and by far the ...

4.4 Service roaming
Service roaming is defined as a combination of roaming and interworking where TETRA services are provided via a non-TETRA air interface. Service Roaming should allow users on a non-TETRA systems to transparently participate in the group and individual communication on a TETRA system and to use the other TETRA services,...

4.6 Timeline
Interworking and roaming between different TETRA networks is an immediate requirement of users. The requirement for roaming between TETRA networks varies between user organization. Some users in the Public Safety market have a requirement in 2011. A more significant portion of this market has requirements soon after th...

4.1 Introduction
The enhancements of the TETRA air interface standard aim at providing increased benefits and optimization in terms of spectrum efficiency, network capacity, system performance, quality of service, size and cost of terminals, battery life, and other relevant parameters. Other possible air interface enhancements are prov...

4.2.2 Enhanced network capacity
Enhanced network capacity is the most important requirement for the general TETRA market and also in all market segments. Most of the respondents (users/operators) in 2001 were still starting up their TETRA networks. These networks were not under normal or full load and most respondents could only estimate the capacity...

4.2.3 Location positioning accuracy better than base station site location
Location positioning accuracy better than base station site location (Cell ID) is also a very important requirement for the general TETRA market. It is required in both Public Safety and PAMR market segments. The requirements for location positioning are handled in detail in clause 4.4.

4.2.4.1 General improvements
Improved cell hand-over decision and management is an important requirement for the general TETRA market. It is required in both the Public Safety and PAMR market segments.

4.2.4.2 Expedited handover
Radio network planning for road and railway tunnels is very challenging due to the fast fading nature of cells. Often, the received RF signal from the current cell degrades rapidly at the same time as the new cell's RF signal level raises rapidly, unlike "out in the open" where the terminal has more time to react to ch...

4.2.5 Improving end to end time delay performance
Reducing end-to-end time delay for voice was earlier required in both the Public Safety and PAMR market segments but not identified in the 2007 TWC workshop as an area that requires further improvement.

4.2.6 Improved spectrum efficiency
Spectrum efficiency is important for the PAMR market segment and required by some Public Safety users. Since most of the respondents (users/operators) to the 2001 questionnaire were still starting up their TETRA networks, it was possible that the TETRA network capacity could have been underestimated. If this was the ca...

4.2.8 Improved RF performance
An improvement in the RF performance by means of better receiver sensitivity, better air interface error correction or similar solution(s) is needed to improve usability in rural areas and indoors. The extended cell size does not help in these cases where the problem is not the distance between the base station and the...

4.2.9 SDS improvements
One of the highest scoring improvement areas in TETRA according to the participants of the 2007 workshop "Future of TETRA" [i.1] was "increased speed, capacity, and efficiency of SDS". Even though the SDS service has been serving the TETRA community adequately for several years, the workshop attendees thought that ther...

In addition to a faster and more efficient SDS service there is a need to have longer SDS messages. It should be able to send these both to individual and group addresses. These longer messages should support, but not be limited, to text messages. There is a delicate balance between the convenience of using SDS and the...

To satisfy these kind sof requirements there is a need to easily, quickly and efficiently dynamically update and change aliases network ...
