New Funding Opportunity Coming Soon!
Wireless telecommunications service providers complete several overlapping testing processes prior to releasing new communications devices, including regulatory testing to meet government standards, industry certification by telecommunications industry forums, and user testing within their own laboratories. While the test standards and procedures processes meet the needs for commercial devices, they cannot ensure a device's proper performance for public safety purposes. PSCR wants to address this issues in a funding opportunity due to release in early 2019 via its Public Safety Innovation and Accelerator Program (PSIAP).
