Public Safety Network: an Overview

Abstract A public safety network (PSN) is a communication network used by emergency services, such as police, fire brigades and medical emergency services, to prevent or respond to incidents that endanger people and/or property. Over the last few years, in order to enhance their efficiency, public safety organizations and first responders have increasingly turned to use personal devices and networked applications. Consequently, wireless systems, hand-held computers and mobile video cameras are increasingly present in PSNs. These devices are an efficient way to increase services’ efficiency, visibility and ability to instantly collaborate with central command, co-workers and other agencies.
