Integral Systems... A Saving Grace (SATCOM)


[SatBroadcasting(tm)] Integral Systems Europe, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Integral Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISYS) partnered with the Al Jazeera Sports Channel to identify and locate a significant satellite inference event that disrupted broadcasts of FIFA World Cup™ football matches this summer during broadcasts to millions of Al Jazeera Sports subscribers across the Middle East and North Africa.

Due to the potential loss of customers and complexity of the interference event, Al Jazeera needed the most comprehensive satellite interference detection and geolocation system that could quickly, easily, and accurately identify and locate the interference. Integral SystemssatID® Expert with Monics®, experts from Integral Systems, and support from satellite operators in the region, quickly detected and characterized the interference, and identified the interferer’s location with an extremely high level of accuracy — within as few as 2-3 kilometers. satID Expert with Monics is an integrated, all-in-one interference monitoring, detection and geolocation system, that brings together best-in-class carrier monitoring, detection and geolocation products to provide the satellite industry with the most comprehensive, robust, and scalable offering available today. The integrated system enables scalable solutions from a single-site system to a global network of monitoring and geolocation units. With the ability to harness the capabilities of a larger, geographically-distributed network of sensors, operators have a higher probability of mission success when geolocating an interfering signal. satID is a product of RT Logic and Monics is a product of SAT Corporation, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Integral Systems, Inc.
