Smartphones can now connect directly with satellites to receive emergency alerts and transmit public warnings in areas without terrestrial mobile coverage. This innovation, known as Direct-to-Device (D2D) communication, has been implemented in several countries and is expected to become available across the EU in the coming years. As one of the major applications of D2D is emergency communications, this webinar will examine how the technology works, its potential to strengthen access to 112, and the steps needed to ensure it improves the resilience and availability of 112.
