TIA Issues Call for Interest on new Project for Land Mobile Radio Antenna Systems Minimum Standards for RF Signal Boosters
Stakeholders Invited to Contact TIA Regarding Participation.
Arlington VA. (August 21, 2013) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-8.11 Engineering Committee on Antenna Systems for Mobile and Personal Private Radio systems has issued a call for interest for document TIA-156-B initially titled "Land Mobile Radio Antenna Systems Minimum Standards for RF Signal Boosters". TR-8.11 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: "Update of TIA-156 Signal boosters standard needed based upon changes made to various FCC rule parts in the February 2013 signal booster rulemaking. Changes were made regarding class A and Class B boosters, as well as any other additional specs needed relating to the use of signal boosters with P25 Phase 2 - TDMA systems as well as LTE systems."
The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: Manufacturers and user of Signal boosters for in-building coverage and gap coverage.
TIA is actively seeking participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities.
For more information about TR-8 and how to participate in standards development with TIA, contact Marianna Kramarikova at standards@tiaonline.org.
A major function of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) is the writing and maintenance of voluntary industry standards and specifications. These activities are carried out by the volunteer members of TIA engineering committees. On the public engineering committee pages, users will find recent meeting reports, agendas and notices for upcoming meetings, as well as links to some of the most popular standards from each committee.
