ICS Monitoring

ICS Monitoring features a fully integrated license equipment database for a quick project set-up. Measurement results from a study are automatically stored for analysis and this can start without interrupting existing measurement campaigns running.

When an unauthorised transmission is identified the user can plot the location of the transmission, with data captured for frequency, power and duration on the integrated map layers and terrain data to allow a quick resolution.

The software compares spectrum emissions with spectrum masks from authorised transmitters, as well as reference spectrum masks.

ICS Monitoring features:

• Real-time spectrum observation and measurement
• Direction Finding (AoA, PDoA, TDoA methods)
• Signal Classification, including UAV identification
• Spectrum trace recording (including IQ streams and waterfalls)
• Automated alarm triggers and response handling
• Target localisation and map visualisation
• Clustering of direction-finding data using AI
• Target designation and electronic jamming coordination
• Customisable white and blacklists for signal management
• Licensed-transmitter data collection and storage
• Frequency-band scanning
• Localisation of unauthorised emissions

ICS Monitoring provides the following features:

• Multi-task measurements – performs multi-task measurements from a variety of source data;
• Vendor-neutral – this solution is not tied to one vendor allowing it be used with all major measurement equipment suppliers;
• Multi-processing power – features multi-thread processing of measurement data to improve speeds and accuracy;
• Re-use measurement data – it can reuse previously obtained measurement data thus saving on time, budget and manpower;
• Scalable - scales well and can increase its performance and efficiency as it is tested by larger operational demands;
• Automated post-processing – features real-time data streams and automatic post-processing to save time and eliminate manual imports;
• Flexible access – the solution can be used online or offline allowing users to view spectrum in the office or remotely;
• Report management – creates reports in an easy to digest format, providing info about the license conditions and relevant monitoring data;
• Trend analysis – provides up-to-date reports for regulators to monitor spectrum use and trends;
• Complaint management – creates reports to monitor spectrum use and trends which can be displayed on a graphical interface allowing the regulator to assess spectrum use across the country in real-time;
• License management – including license expiry overlaid on map for easy identification.

ICS Monitoring can be customised to incorporate live-chat or auto-chat functions, to improve access to the service and response times.
