- Abstract
The present document defines the stage 1 specifications of the Supplementary Service Pre-emptive Priority Call (SS-PPC) for the Terrestrial Trunked Radio system (TETRA). Stage 1 is an overall service description from the users point of view but does not deal with the details of the human interface itself. The present document specifies the service description of the supplementary service and the procedures to be expected with successful and unsuccessful outcomes. In addition the present document specifies the interactions with other TETRA supplementary services and interworking considerations. Charging principles are outside the scope of the present document. The SS-PPC enables a user to have preferential access to SwMI resources including pre-emption of calls.

SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 300 392-10-16 for Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) Voice plus Data, sub-part 16 on Pre-emptive Priority Call (PPC). It gives the stage 1, user-oriented service description for SS-PPC, including how priority access to SwMI resources works, when calls may be pre-empted, and how the service interacts with other TETRA supplementary services.
What does SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 specify?
SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 specifies the stage 1 behavior of the Supplementary Service Pre-emptive Priority Call (SS-PPC) in TETRA. In practice, that means it describes the service from the user's point of view: what the service does, how it is invoked, what happens when it succeeds or fails, and how it relates to other TETRA services.
The document is organized into scope, references, definitions and abbreviations, the SS-PPC service specification, interactions with other supplementary services, interworking considerations, and an overall SDL model.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006?
Clause 4.1 defines SS-PPC as a priority service that lets a user obtain SwMI resources even if lower priority calls must be disconnected. In practice, this is the core of the service: the network may release older, lower-CRV calls to make room for the pre-emptive call.
Clause 4.1 also covers called-user pre-emption. If the destination user is already on a call, the incoming SS-PPC call may interrupt that call unless the established call has a sufficiently high priority. For group calls, the outcome depends on whether the called user is the group call owner or only a participant, which matters for whether the whole group call is forced released or only one user is removed.
Clause 4.1.2 limits where SS-PPC applies. It applies to all individual and group TETRA teleservices and bearer services, but not to TETRA packet data services or Short Data Service (SDS). That boundary matters because implementers and buyers need to know which traffic types can actually use pre-emption.
Clause 4.2 describes provision and withdrawal on a per TETRA number basis, using Individual TETRA Subscriber Identity (ITSI) or Group TETRA Subscriber Identity (GTSI). The subscription can be set per basic service, and the service provider can offer options such as immediate pre-emption or a time to pre-emption. This matters for configuration and service ordering, because the operator may need to map the chosen policy to network behavior.
Clause 4.2.2 says the served user invokes SS-PPC during initial call set-up, and the network should allocate traffic resources even under congestion. If pre-emption warning is subscribed to, connected parties are warned before release; if immediate pre-emption is used, they are released through the normal call release path with a reason. This is the practical difference between a brief warning and an immediate takeover.
Clause 4.2.3 sets the rejection cases for definition, interrogation, cancellation, and invocation. Typical causes include not authorized, unknown TETRA identity, invalid parameters, insufficient information, or network congestion. For operations teams, these are the conditions to log and diagnose when service requests fail.
Clause 4.3 defines service interactions. SS-PPC takes precedence over services such as SS-PC, SS-CFB, and SS-CAD, and it has special behavior with SS-HOLD, SS-CRT, SS-DL, and SS-AL. This section is important because it tells implementers which service wins when features overlap.
Clause 4.4 adds interworking rules. If user C belongs to another network, indications are forwarded through that network, and the served user cannot pre-empt a called user who is not a TETRA subscriber.
What terms does SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 define?
- Access Priority Level (APL) - the value used at initial call set-up to determine access priority across the air interface.
- Pre-emptive Priority Level (PPL) - the value that allows resources to be allocated to SS-PPC.
- Priority Level (PL) - the pre-agreed value used to determine priority access when the network is congested.
- Call Retention Value (CRV) - the priority level that protects an established call against being pre-empted.
- SwMI - Switching and Management Infrastructure, the TETRA network infrastructure that controls calls and resources.
- served user - the user who makes the SS-PPC call.
- SS-PPC call - a call that carries a pre-emptive priority value.
Who uses SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006?
TETRA network operators use this standard to define how priority calling behaves in the network. Terminal and switching equipment vendors use it to implement pre-emption, warning, rejection, and interaction behavior consistently.
Service providers and system integrators use it when configuring subscriptions, priorities, and service interactions for users such as dispatchers, emergency services, and other organizations that rely on prioritized radio access. Test and conformance teams use it to check whether a TETRA implementation follows the expected service behavior.
What changed in SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 from the previous edition?
Annex B states that this version includes updates from change requests covering emergency call user pre-emption, SS-HOLD and group calls, SwMI behavior on call pre-emption, alignment with stage 3 functions and PDU information elements, and SS-HOLD interaction. The document history also shows the move to version V1.2.1 in September 2004.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006?
- ITU-T Recommendation I.221 - provides the service characteristics definition used for the term busy.
- ITU-T Recommendation Z.100 - defines Specification and Description Language (SDL), used for the overall service model in clause 4.5.
- ETSI ETS 300 392-10-24 - the Call Retention (CRT) part used when SS-PPC behavior depends on CRV.
What does the SIST EN 300 392-10-16 V1.2.1:2006 document contain?
The document includes tables for subscription options and for how different priority combinations affect pre-emption, so implementers can map policy to behavior without guessing. It also includes an overall SDL model in clause 4.5, which gives a dynamic view of how the network handles invocation, congestion, and pre-emption.
Annex B provides the change-request history that led to this version. Annex A gives the bibliography, which helps readers trace related material without expanding the main requirements text.

SS-PPC normally means one of the highest Access Priority Levels (APL) at uplink access and one of the highest Priority Levels (PL) across SwMIs. Normally the calling user defines the pre-emptive priority level for the call, but SwMI may modify that value or allocate that value. The reasons for modification or allocation are outside the scope of the present document. If the required resources are unavailable (i.e. occupied by other users) for the SS-PPC call SwMI should release resources of the oldest calls with the lowest SwMI Call Retention Value (CRV) and give the released resources to the SS-PPC call.
