Monitoring and usage assessment and reporting agencies are required across all satellites which are leased by the USSF.

Kratos’ network is made of international RF monitoring websites, hosting steerable and repaired sensors and antennas in L, S, C, X, and Ku bands. Kratos’ 24/7/365 Network Operations Center (NOC) is your central hub for monitoring and incorporating raw RF data from its global sensor network. Advanced technologies developed by and exclusive to Kratos have been incorporated into all levels of the cutting-edge infrastructure, from custom algorithms utilized in the sensor network, to industry-leading industrial software used in the NOC for data monitoring, correlation and geolocation, to specially-developed analytics that give the actual meaning behind the raw data. The RF bandwidth monitoring services are part of a portfolio of RF services offered to government and commercial clients.
