Objective
The proposed Satellite Monitoring System will provide the intelligence agencies all
Satellite transported information by all the countries coming in the same satellite spot
beams.
System Introduction
Once the Satellite monitoring system is tuned to any of the satellite uplink and downlink
frequency, all satellite information transported by these countries will be present for
interception. The user can then based on his experience of using the carrier monitoring
system, has to select the channel of the country of interest and tune the receiver to receive
that channel of interest. The system will automatically demodulate the satellite signal and
adapt the decompression scheme for extracting Voice/Fax and Data outputs for the
intelligence operatives to view and act in accordance to the requirements.
System Capabilities
The Content monitoring system has been designed to take minimum of 60 traffic
channels from 2 E1’s in case there is no DCME present. In case of DCME the Maximum
Voice / Data 64Kbps channels can be 1200 (in case of DTX 600).
The Satellite Backend Processing system come along with a recording Interface and a
Terra byte recording system for online storage of Intercepted communication on Cluster
of RAID Drives for the purpose of secure archiving.
The whole network is connected using high speed Gigabit LAN connectivity on Ethernet,
which is configured in a manner to control all the components of STR 3412. The system
provides hierarchal control, as the task is divided into Test and Measurement,
Acquisition, Monitoring and Post processing and Voice / Text Analysis
Upon successful decompression, the decompressed E1’s are fed into the Satellite
Backend processing system. In case the E1’s are not compressed, then they are routed
directly to the Satellite Backend processor.
The Monitoring and Post processing Platform provides total control of Satellite Back End
Collection and Processing system. All the E1’s be it compressed or non – compressed are
routed to this system for post processing of SS7 signals. The system is based on standard
ETSI model, designed to work as a backend processor for satellite monitoring systems.
The system is designed to accept standard SS7 signaling form satellite monitoring front-
end systems like the open communication mode (non-compressed or compressed mode)
where the signals are sent over satellite through DCME compression. The system is
capable of Correlation of call content and signaling information, CDR production and
archival in database, Filtering based on specific called and calling number, Search for
live call trace of specific targets, Voice Recording and Playback.
The offered system currently handles only C band and 2 Input channels. In case the
customer wishes, another band (Ku) can be added at extra cost. We would also like to
mention that the system will only intercept, decode and decompress information and in
no way will handle any decryption of any encrypted channel. In case an encryption
channel is encountered, the system will provide the encrypted output. Creating an
online/offline decryption facility will be a separate endeavor than the current proposal.
Achievements
• The system will be capable of finding satellite communications taking place in the
area of interest
• The system will be capable of monitoring both uplink and downlink frequencies
in C band. (optional Ku band can be added at extra cost)
• The system will be able do record and replay intercepted Voice, Fax and IP data
• The system will consist of workstations for the user to access the intercepted
communications.
Optional Enhancements—
• Additional Ku band capacity.
• Additional C and Ku band antenna.
• Offline Analysis Capacity
Processing of all channels in real time is next to impossible until and unless we have
similar number of workstations and manpower available. Hence optionally the system
can be equipped with a variety of features for analysis, these include Text and Speech
Analysis Functions based on strong Military grade algorithms to filter intercepts on the
basis of Word and Topic Spotting, Language parameters and all other relevant statistical
database like speaker and language/accent identification.
The system design is generic and it can be expanded to cater for multiple E1’s offering
seamless future expansion if required
