12、ed as equivalent legal and/or statistical subdivisions of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the possessions and freely associated areas of the United States. Counties are considered to be the “first-order subdivisions” of each State and statistically equivalent entity, regardless of their
13、 local designations (county, parish, borough, etc.). Thus, the following entities are considered to be equivalent to counties for legal and/or statistical purposes: the parishes of Louisiana; the boroughs and census areas of Alaska; the District of Columbia; the independent cities of Maryland, Misso
14、uri, Nevada, and Virginia; that part of Yellowstone National Park in Montana; and various entities in the possessions and associated areas. The FIPS codes and FIPS code documentation are available online at . 3.1.6 Participating Commercial Mobile Service Provider: A Participating Commercial Mobile S
15、ervice Provider (or a Participating CMS Provider) is a Commercial Mobile Service Provider that has voluntarily elected to transmit Alert Messages. 3.2 Acronyms this is subject to the capability of the delivery technology and mobile device and is beyond the scope of this specification. Opt-out in thi
16、s specification refers only to the alerting and presentation of the alert message to the subscriber. CMAS defines three classes of alerts: 1) Presidential; 2) Child Abduction Emergency (e.g., AMBER); and 3) Imminent Threat. The Imminent Threat class includes the subclasses Extreme and Severe. The de
17、finition and requirements for subscriber opt-out of alerts are as follows: 1. The default setting for the CMAS alert opt-out options shall be for the mobile device to be configured for the capability to alert and present all CMAS alert messages (that is, there are no alerts in the “opt-out” setting)
18、. 2. The default setting for the RMT option is “off”. a. Mobiles with the optional RMT capability may be configured to present the received RMT messages either via a menu option, a command string, or other CMSP/mobile device specific options. 3. Presidential alerts shall not be eligible for opt-out
19、since the mobile device shall always be configured for the capability to alert and present Presidential alerts. J-STD-100 16 4. The mobile device shall support the capability for a subscriber to opt-out of the capability to alert and present Child Abduction Emergency/AMBER Alert messages. 5. For all
20、 Imminent Threat Alert messages, the mobile device shall support a simple opt-out process that is based on the category of imminent threat of the CMAS Alert message. Imminent threats are categorized as Extreme or Severe as indicated by the value of the severity, urgency and certainty attributes of t
21、he original alert message. The following table defines Extreme and Severe alerts: Table 1: CMAS - Imminent Threat Message Categorization CMAS Message Category Severity Urgency Certainty Extreme Immediate Observed Extreme Alert Message Extreme Immediate Likely Extreme Expected Observed Extreme Expect
22、ed Likely Severe Immediate Observed Severe Immediate Likely Severe Expected Observed Severe Alert Message Severe Expected Likely The mobile device opt-out process for imminent threat alert messages shall provide the subscriber with the following choices: the capability not to alert and present Extre
23、me or Severe imminent threat alerts, or the capability to alert and present Extreme imminent threat alerts only. These choices can also be viewed as follows: Opt-out of “all imminent threat messages”: o Neither Extreme nor Severe imminent threats alerts are presented. Opt-out of “Severe imminent thr
24、eat” messages: o Only Extreme imminent threat alerts are presented. If the subscriber chooses not to opt-out of either “all imminent threat messages” or “Severe imminent threat” messages, then the Extreme and Severe imminent threats alerts are both presented. NOTE: Extreme and Severe imminent threat
25、 opt-out processing is performed independent of the Child Abduction Emergency/AMBER Alert opt-out settings and processing. Presentation of Presidential alerts is not affected by these settings. 6. Because of differences in the way CMSPs and device manufacturers provision their menus and user interfa
26、ces, CMSPs and device manufacturers shall have flexibility on how to present the opt-out choices to subscribers. However, for simplicity in consumer education, the opt-out requirements 3, 4, and 5 above shall be supported by all mobile devices. For illustrative purposes, a CMAS options menu might ap
27、pear as follows: J-STD-100 17 EMERGENCY ALERTS ALL ALERTS ON EXTREME ALERTS ONLY PRESIDENTIAL ALERTS ONLY AMBER ALERT NOTIFICATIONS ON OFF Figure 4: Illustrative CMAS Options Menu Note that Presidential alerts are always received irrespective of the options chosen in the CMAS Options Menu. 10.2 CMAS
28、 Audio Attention Signal Options The following requirements define the mobile device options available to the subscriber that are related to the CMAS audio attention signal: 1. If the end user has deselected or turned off the mobile device audio and alarms, the CMAS audio attention signal follows the
29、 mobile device settings and shall not be activated upon receipt of a CMAS alert. 2. If the end user has deselected or turned off the mobile device audio and alarms and has deselected or turned off the vibration capabilities of the mobile device, neither the CMAS audio attention signal nor the specia
30、l emergency alert vibration cadence shall be activated upon receipt of a CMAS alert consistent with the mobile device settings. 3. The CMAS audio attention signal shall not be selectable by the subscriber for any mobile device functions. 4. If the end user does not acknowledge the CMAS alert to the
31、mobile device, the mobile device should support the capability to activate and deactivate the CMAS audio attention signal. The frequency and interval of the activation and deactivation of the CMAS audio attention signal is dependent on mobile device capabilities. 10.3 CMAS Vibration Cadence Options
32、The following requirements define the mobile device options available to the subscriber that are related to the CMAS vibration cadence: 1. If the end user has deselected or turned off the vibration capabilities of the mobile device, the special emergency alert vibration cadence follows the mobile de
33、vice settings and shall not be activated upon receipt of a CMAS alert. 2. If the end user has deselected or turned off the mobile device audio and alarms and has deselected or turned off the vibration capabilities of the mobile device, neither the CMAS audio attention signal nor the special emergenc
34、y alert vibration cadence shall be activated upon receipt of a CMAS alert consistent with the mobile device settings. J-STD-100 18 3. The CMAS vibration cadence for the CMAS alert shall not be selectable by the subscriber for any mobile device functions. 4. If the end user does not acknowledge the C
35、MAS alert to the mobile device, the mobile device should support the capability to activate and deactivate the special emergency alert vibration cadence. The frequency and interval of the activation and deactivation of the special emergency alert vibration cadence is dependent on mobile device capab
36、ilities. 11 CONSIDERATIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS Section 603(b)(3)(F) of the WARN Act Ref 4 required that the CMSAAC include representatives of national organizations representing people with special needs, including individuals with disabilities and the elderly. The CMSAAC concluded, w
37、ith the concurrent of the FCC, that Congress intended to include the elderly and those individuals with disabilities among the class of subscriber to which electing CMS providers are to deliver CMAS alerts. The requirements contained in clause 7 and clause 8 of this specification, which originated f
38、rom the CMSAAC recommendations contained in the FCC Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) Ref 5, took into consideration individuals with special needs, including the elderly. Those requirements benefit all subscribers in an emergency, not only those with special needs. CMAS-compliant mobile devices
39、according to the requirements specified in clause 7 and clause 8 meet the considerations for individuals with special needs. An additional optional capability is to provide text-to-speech conversion for CMAS alert messages. One area of particular concern is that people who are blind or visually impa
40、ired will be most underserved by a solely text-based CMAM. It is recognized that these subscribers could be best served by having the CMAM made available in speech format. An optional capability is for mobile devices to provide a screen reading and text-to-speech conversion capability. Such speciali
41、zed mobile devices, which are geared for people who are blind and who have low vision, could be a solution. Mobile device support of the Title 47 of the United States Code (U.S.C.) Section 225 Telecommunications services for hearing-impaired and speech-impaired individuals Ref 6 (e.g., support of TT
42、Y devices and hearing aids) is outside the scope of this specification. J-STD-100 19 Annex A (informative) A USE CASES This informative annex provides example use cases on the behavior of the mobile devices for CMAS alerts. These use cases are written from the end user point of view and provide insi
43、ght into the CMAS user experience which is used in the development of the mobile device requirements of this specification. The example use cases included in this section are as follows: Use Case #1 CMAS Configuration Use Case #2 Cancelled Alert Use Case #3 Updated Alert A.1 Use Case #1 CMAS Configu
44、ration When Sophie purchased her new mobile device, she learned that a new Commercial Mobile Alert Service was being offered by her mobile operator to subscribers in her area. She learned that this service is free and the mobile device could notify her when alerts that were considered an imminent th
45、reat to life and property were received by her mobile device. She learned that there were three classes of alerts. One class of alert was a Presidential Alert, and she would always be notified when this alert was received. However, she could choose to be notified of other alerts based on whether the
46、y were categorized as Extreme or Extreme and Severe. In addition, she could choose whether she wanted to be notified of AMBER Alerts. Sophie learned that new mobile devices were initially configured to notify her when they receive any alerts. If she wanted to change this configuration, she could acc
47、ess the CMAS opt-out menu on the mobile device and choose to opt-out of All Alert Messages (i.e., All Extreme and Severe Alert messages and the AMBER Alerts, but not the Presidential Alert), All Severe Alert messages and/or AMBER Alerts. As a busy professional woman, Sophie decided she only wanted t
48、o be notified of Extreme alerts, so she deselected All Messages and the AMBER Alert message. A.2 Use Case #2 Cancelled Alert Recently, Susan purchased a cell phone that supported the new Commercial Mobile Alert Service. Susan decided not to opt-out of any alerts, so there was no need to access the C
49、MAS opt-out menu. As a result, the mobile device will notify Susan when it receives a Presidential alert or any other alerts marked as Extreme, Severe, or the AMBER Alert When an alert is sent to Susans mobile, she hears a unique audible signal; she also experiences the unique cadence of the vibrating alert. After she retrieves her mobile device from her purse, she turns off the audible and vibrating alerts and reads the alert displayed on the screen. In this case, Susan is being notified of an AMBER Alert. Then Susan acknowledges the A
