Signal Cloud enables mobile network operators to securely transform anonymised LTE and 5G signalling data into operational intelligence for security, mobility analysis, and network optimisation

Key capabilities

  • privacy-preserving signalling analytics
  • large-scale signalling data storage
  • real-time anomaly detection
  • specialised intelligence modules

The Problem

Mobile networks generate vast volumes of signalling data every second. Most of this data is used only for operational troubleshooting and is rarely analysed at scale.

Yet signalling activity contains valuable information about:

  • network behaviour
  • device mobility patterns
  • anomalous activity within network coverage areas

Every mobile device interaction generates signalling events that describe how devices attach, move, and interact with the network. Analysing these events provides a powerful new source of operational intelligence.

Unlocking this intelligence has historically been difficult due to privacy constraints and the complexity of telecom signalling protocols.

The Solution

Melrose Networks Signal Cloud provides a privacy-preserving platform that enables mobile network operators to securely analyse LTE and 5G signalling data at scale.

The platform processes signalling data inside the operator network, anonymises subscriber identifiers, and streams structured events to a cloud analytics environment.

This architecture enables powerful analytics while ensuring that subscriber identities remain under operator control.

Platform Architecture

Signal Cloud consists of three core platform components

Scalable signalling data lake

SignalInsight

Advanced analytics engine

Intelligence Applications

Signal Cloud supports multiple operational applications built on the analytics platform.

Privacy and Operator Control

Signal Cloud is designed with privacy and regulatory compliance as core principles.

Subscriber identifiers are anonymised inside the operator network before any data is exported.

The mapping between original identifiers and anonymised identifiers remains under the control of the mobile network operator.

This architecture enables large-scale analytics while preserving subscriber privacy.
