Background
Major forest fires caused by global warming and industrial fires caused by hazardous chemicals are becoming more frequent. These large-scale emergency events involve multiple civil defense teams from the fire department, police, and medical services. It takes more labor to manage these emergencies to save lives and put out fires. Intercommunication between all emergency response teams is essential for the coordination of rescue operations and timely medical assistance.
However, the fire, police, and medical services use different communication devices on various radio networks, which results in a lack of interconnection between the teams. Signal coverage is also limited depending on the wireless network. Narrowband devices have limited coverage in urban and underground areas, whereas broadband devices such as mobile phones have limited coverage in dense forest coverage. In some cases, emergency response teams have to handle multiple fires in a large area.
Winmate Radio gateway RG100 solves this problem by interconnecting both narrowband and broadband communication devices. With RG100 Radio Gateway and Larzio, the operator and Command can directly contact teams in different channels to organize the best rescue operations. Limited resources such as fire trucks and ambulances can be properly allocated to needed areas thanks to this efficient communication. The command center can control and monitor the situation, irrespective of the communication devices used by the different teams.
