Portable Thuraya Satellite Monitoring System is designed and developed as a Passive Portable
Thuraya Satellite Interception System which log the location of Thuraya handset
operating within user-selected spot beams, and the telephone numbers
with which they communicate. The Surveillance of L-band (b/w Thuraya
satellite and Thuraya mobile both uplink and downlink), provides
total traffic monitoring of the targeted spot beam. Thuraya Satellite Interception System uses
state of art technology for deciphering of cipher algorithms used
on Thuraya network. Thuraya Satellite Interception System is using proprietary technology to
scan the active spot beams in the coverage range of the antenna
and after scanning provides the list of available active spot
beams with spot beam ID, latitude and longitude of the center
of the spot beam, signal strength and signal quality. Once the
scanning is completed the operator can tune the system to spot
beam of interest.
Portable
Thuraya Satellite Monitoring System can be configured to monitor the call in simplex as well
as in duplex mode depending upon the settings of the system and
availability of the radio signals. Three different mode of monitoring
are possible
 Monitoring of forward channel from
one beam. (Simplex Mode).
Monitoring of forward and reverse
channel from one spot beam. (Duplex Mode).
Monitoring of forward channel from
two different spot beams. (simple Mode).
The Portable
Thuraya Satellite Monitoring System has been designed to monitor and decrypt voice, SMS,
Fax and data communication. The Portable
Thuraya Satellite Interceptor comes with auto classification
process which automatically detects and identifies the type of
intercept i.e. Voice, SMS, Fax and Data communication. The Thuraya Satellite Interceptor
decrypts the Voice, SMS, and Fax and data communication almost
in real time. Since the system monitors both Uplink and Downlink
from the L-band. The system displays activity of BCCH, AGCH, PCH,
BACH, FACCH, SACCH, SDCCH, and RACH. The system is also integrated
to mapping tool to provide geographic location of the suspect.

Product
Features |
|
|
System
is capable of monitoring several spot beams. Being a modular architecture,
the capability of the system in terms of number of calls can be increased
by adding extra hardware. |
|
|
Coverage area can
be changed by the operator according to priority of intelligence mission. |
|
|
All Thuraya communication
in the coverage is intercepted. |
|
|
The location of the
target is mapped on cartographic background. |
|
|
Target mobile units
can be displayed on a GIS map. The GIS subsystem is connected to the
database and is updated regularly. |
|
|
Capability to intercept
all communication in both uplink and downlink directions. |
|
|
System maintains the
internal call data record for each communication with all identity
parameters that can be intercepted for each call. |
|
|
All calls are recorded
and are available for real time monitoring. |
|
|
If the intercepted
call is not of interest, the operator can terminate the call, thus
freeing the receiver for interception of other calls. |
|
|
Real-time interception
and near real time deciphering of Encryption standards for Thuraya
Network. |
|
|
The system can intercept
calls, initiated from PSTN to MES, MES to PSTN and Thuraya to Thuraya
terminals. |
|
|
The audio is recorded
in proprietary compressed format which can be converted to standard
wave format. The audio along with the CRI can be exported to standard
formats. |
|
|
The GIS mapping software
integrated with the system is based on industrial standard products
and has the capability of displaying finer details. The software has
the option for Zoom in and Zoom out. With a closer zoom the user can
view contour, terrain, roads, tracks, towns villages etc. |
|
|
The intercepted SMS
can be viewed using special SMS viewer software integrated with the
system. |
|
|
The system will generate
alerts in case of malfunctioning of any subsystem. |
