The TETRA standard may be suitable for this type of application. This is a
mobile data/voice standard originally developed by the military but now
widely used in Europe by emergency services, police etc.. We are working on
a TETRA application for paramedic services in the UK. As a standard, TETRA
should be regarded as complementary to GSM and DECT. In comparison with GSM
as currently implemented, TETRA provides faster call set-up, higher data
rates, group calls and direct mode.

I thought of bluetooth - but it does not have the range (AFAICremember),
so you will still need a base station (getting signals from a lot of
Bluetooth outfitted items) to pass it all on using a different system.
Is there REALLY anything to compare to PHS on the horizon?
