New Report an Assessment of the Market for Wireless Networks and Devices for Use by Public Safety Entities in the US to 2012.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c70068) has announced the addition of US Public Safety - A New Era of Wireless Networks to their offering.

"Public Safety: A New Era of Wireless Networks" is an assessment of the market for wireless networks and devices for use by public safety entities within the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area.  from 2007 through 2012. Emergency services emergency services Emergency care '…services …necessary to prevent death or serious impairment of health and, because of the danger to life or health, require the use of the most accessible hospital available and equipped to furnish those services' , municipal, state, and federal institutions are all considered when deriving shipments and sales of emerging broadband and narrowband digital wireless technologies as well as for more traditional public safety platforms such as land mobile radio, satellites, point-to-point microwave use, and public cellular wireless networks. The impact of numerous wireless platforms are considered and evaluated, including Wi-Fi, mesh networks, civilian broadband wireless See wireless broadband.  platforms (cellular, WiMAX), and SMR (Specialized Mobile Radio) The communications services used by police, ambulances, taxicabs, trucks and other delivery vehicles. Throughout the U.S., approximately 3,000 independent operators are licensed by the FCC to offer this service, which provides always-on  and ESMR ESMR Enhanced Specialized Mobile Radio
