5G-XCast: Public warning system (PWS)

Home » 5G-XCast: Public warning system (PWS)

The public warning system trials aim at demonstrating utilisation of multimedia in public warning alert. Currently, public warning messages mainly contain short text messages. The cellular devices have developed rapidly and more informative warning messages containing for example images, maps and video could be delivered.

The messages are to be delivered rapidly only in the area affected by the hazard. This imposes severe amount of data that the network should deliver to many devices simultaneously.
