Abstract :
As part of the development of the European economy as well as being a major contribution to it, private mobile radio (PMR) is expected to grow very quickly within the next few years. New digital technology combined with trunking techniques will boost the market as they will not only meet new customer requirements but also provide a very efficient solution to the spectrum congestion. The author focuses on the marketing aspects of the future digital trunking systems in Europe. The author examines: the PMR market in Europe; the PMR user requirements for the near future; and the services to be supported by the future digital trunked systems
