  • Project tests smartphone connections to trunked radio system
    While land mobile radio will remain the mainstay of public safety communications for a decade or more, platforms are being developed that allow smartphones to tap into and communicate with an existing P25 trunked radio system.
     
    To learn more, ODOT and Harris Corp. engaged in a "proof of concept" demonstration with Harris' BeOn platform and a designated set of Android smartphones. Internal and external testers used smartphones to connect to the State Radio Project's trunked system installation on Mount Scott in the Portland area.
     
    "The system and the whole process worked extremely well and will be a good lead-in for Increment Zero," the project's trunked radio test bed sites, said Statewide Interoperability Coordinator Steve Noel.
