IEEE 802.16s is the only standard developed specifically for mission-critical communications in narrow channel sizes of less than 1.25 megahertz. The data standard is a fit for private, licensed communications systems that have mid-size spectrum access, such as the 700 MHz A band, 217 – 219 MHz, 1.4 GHz, 160 MHz, 900 MHz and 450 MHz. The webinar will discuss the history, technical specifications and future of IEEE 802.16s.

The webinar will be moderated by Sandra Wendelken, editor of Mission Critical Communications magazine, and presenters will include:

    • Rick Smith, IT Infrastructure Architect, Chevron
