LTE S1 Analyser

A passive, software-based telecom signalling detection engine that identifies and tracks aerial threats through LTE (4G) control-plane behaviour. Designed to complement radar, RF, and optical systems, it provides a wide-area sensing layer that operates beyond line-of-sight constraints.

What It Does

  • Detects and tracks UAV activity using LTE S1 control-plane signalling behaviour.
  • Enables wide-area monitoring wherever mobile network coverage exists.
  • Provides detection events, track identifiers and confidence indicators to support operational decision-making.
  • Integrates with existing C-UAS, sensor-fusion and command-and-control platforms.

Technology Overview

The LTE S1 Analyser is delivered as a containerised or virtualised software module. It passively ingests LTE S1-MME signalling data and applies behavioural analysis models to identify anomalous mobility patterns consistent with aerial activity.

It is designed for evaluation, integration and operational deployment by approved defence organisations, system integrators and mobile network operators.

Integration

Integration is achieved through standard data interfaces, enabling outputs to be consumed directly by fusion engines, situational awareness systems or command platforms.

Deployment requires access to LTE S1-MME signalling data, typically via cooperation with a mobile network operator or through controlled datasets for evaluation purposes.

Licensing Approach

Licensing is structured to support progressive engagement:

Evaluation

Internal technical assessment and feasibility testing using representative datasets.

Integration

Prototype and demonstration deployment with controlled API or SDK access.

Operational Deployment

Full operational use within fixed, mobile or distributed architectures, with support and updates available under commercial agreement.

All intellectual property remains the property of Melrose Networks. No rights are granted to modify, decompile or create derivative works from the software.

Export Controls

Export of this software may be subject to UK export control regulations. Authorisation may be required prior to transfer or deployment outside approved jurisdictions.

Performance Notice

Detection performance depends on external factors including network configuration, traffic patterns, quality of training data and adversarial tactics designed to mimic legitimate behaviour. Performance may vary between environments and cannot be guaranteed in all operational scenarios.
