TIA Issues a Call for Interest on New Project for Radio Management Protocols

Stakeholders Invited to Contact TIA Regarding Participation.

Arlington VA. (May 19, 2015) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-8.5 Engineering Committee on Signaling and Data Transmission has issued a call for interest for document TIA-102.BAEE-C initially titled Radio Management Protocols. TR-8.5 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: The objective of this document is to provide a specification of the Radio Management Protocols for the A Interface. The information necessary to enable interoperable radio management services and functionality over this interface is provided in this document or referenced in other documents as appropriate. The radio management protocols support the following three functions: (a) signaling used by the MDP to configure the SU (b) signaling to request information from the SU and (c) signaling related to alarm reporting or other unsolicited event reports generated by the SU."

The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: APCO Project 25, Private Land Mobile Radio manufacturers and users.

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. TIA is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Visit tiaonline.org.
