TIA Issues Call for Interest on new Project for Trunking Control Channel Messages

Stakeholders Invited to Contact TIA Regarding Participation.

Arlington VA. (July 02, 2013) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-8.10 Engineering Committee on Trunking and Conventional Control has issued a call for interest for document ANSI/TIA-102.AABC-D initially titled "Trunking Control Channel Messages". This revision to the Trunking Control Channel Messages standard will incorporate several enhancements. It will absorb the existing Conventional Fallback addendum (ANSI/TIA-102.AABC-C-1) and provide additional clarifications to various aspects of wide area operation.

The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: All manufacturers and users of TIA-102 compliant Land Mobile Radio equipment.

TIA is actively seeking participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities.

To inquire about participating in TIA standards developing efforts, please contact the TIA Technology & Standards Department at 703-907-7000 or via e-mail at standards@tiaonline.org.

A major function of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) is the writing and maintenance of voluntary industry standards and specifications. These activities are carried out by the volunteer members of TIA engineering committees. On the public engineering committee pages, users will find recent meeting reports, agendas and notices for upcoming meetings, as well as links to some of the most popular standards from each committee. TIA is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Visit tiaonline.org.
