Arlington VA. (October 24, 2017) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-8.19 Engineering Committee on Wireline System Interfaces has issued a call for interest for document TIA-102.BACG initially titled “ISSI Messages and Procedures for Group Regrouping”.

This standard will enhance the Inter-Sub System Interface (ISSI) by adding group regrouping capability. Group Regrouping enables a console to setup an air-link efficient patch among multiple groups by instructing the system to temporarily combine (regroup) the groups into a single group. Group regrouping is already defined for the Common Air Interface in TIA-102.AABH.

The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system owners, LMR system maintainers, P25 radio manufacturers, P25 infrastructure manufacturers, P25 radio implementers, P25 infrastructure implementers.

TIA actively seeks participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities. For more information, contact:
