(USA) Rural wireless carriers get Phase II E911 waivers
From RCR Wireless News.
The FCC granted 32 whole or partial waivers for rural wireless carrier enhanced 911 Phase II obligations, and denied or dismissed eight other requests. That makes a total of 175 whole or partial waivers for rural carriers over the past nine years.
A big problem for rural carriers is that they don’t have the density of phone towers to make network-based triangulation techniques feasible.
