Abstract
In this chapter we provide an overview of the existing wireless communication solutions and discuss their usage in Community Policing (CP) applications. We conclude that it is highly probable that Community Policing will be utilising the existing emergency services solutions and that there will be no dedicated CP networks. The existing emergency services networks we classify as infrastructure-based and infrastructure-less networks and within this classification analyse TETRA, 3G, LTE and ad hoc mesh solutions. We demonstrate that no single solution could meet all the requirements and that various operational scenarios will require diverse mobile communication solutions. Therefore, the most interesting solutions such as LTE and ad hoc wireless networks are described in greater details.
