(None-Data) - Wide Area Broadcast

Description:

This solution is used within Australia, the E.U. and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for C-X: Wide Area Broadcast. The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The C-X: Wide Area Broadcast standards include lower-layer standards that support one entity broadcasting information to all wireless devices over an area that covers at least a metropolitan area without any expectation of acknowledgement or response; security is provided by the upper-layers.

Readiness Description:

Many serious issues. This category includes solutions that have not been standardized, or do not have a basic level of interoperability or security. Consider selecting a different communications solution or if this is not possible (eg. a pilot of a new application that has not been standardized), take additional measures to provide an acceptable level of security or interoperability.
