 Workshop on Telecommunications for Disaster Relief
 Geneva, 17-19 February 2003 Contact: tsbworkshops@itu.int 
Session 4 – EMTEL Requiremets Definition
Mr Wolfgang Heidrich

Abstract:

ETSI has started very early - in its February 2002 workshop - with the collection of the latest requirements for Emergency Telecommunications (EMTEL) in order to update its deliverables to meet public interest communication needs in emergencies. The presentation gives an overview on the work on requirements and its implementation into ETSI standards.

As ETSI with its 768 members from 55 countries traditionally takes public communication needs into account, the ongoing work is more or less an update of the existing standards for the communication between citizens and authorities / organizations, between authorities / organizations and between authorities / organizations and citizens. It addresses also the requirements for applications such as telemedicine and car communication services. Due to binding legislation, priority is given to location enhanced emergency services (E 112) and priority services over networks.
