SAMS Signal Library
A Complete Solution: Signal Capture to Archive
The Rising Edge Technologies SAMS (Signal Archive Management System) is a turn-key system designed to support signal transfer from our SIGINT Data Recorder to a network accessible storage environment. SAMS focuses on quickly and accurately converting the proprietary file format of the data recorder to a structured file format that allows these signal files to support analysis, dissemination, or training applications.
Integrated Data Management
The heart of the SAMS is the Data Management Server. The server is the primary controller for moving data from the recorder through the caching and control logic of the system. Data is moved from the recorder via high-speed FTP to the storage system where it is stored as an operating system compatible file. This file is then managed within the
SAMS and is available to support user applications.
Signals on the recorder are loaded to the SAMS using a custom GUI application. The user can select the files to be transferred to or from the system. The system can also be used to build custom drive modules that contain specialized groups or types of files to support alternative methods of playback and analysis or in training scenarios.
Data Management Software
The SAMS combines commercial database software, custom graphical user interface, and proprietary recorder control to create a system that can seamlessly manage data transfers through the entire storage system. A Drive Module Archive function is designed to query the Drive Module and provide a detailed listing of its content. The user then has the option of selecting any number of files from the Drive Module for transfer to the archive system. The transfer function not only copies the data from the media pack but also any stored information related to the specific recording being transferred that may have been entered by the user.
The files are stored on a high performance RAID system which provides data redundancy to safeguard your file from disk drive failures. Easy location and access to the files stored on the system is provided through an easy to use GUI which simplifies database searches and points you directly to the recordings which fit your criteria. Once you find your signal of interest, the GUI provides a means to load the file onto a Drive Module or off-load it to any number of external storage devices.
Signal Archive Subsystem
As a complete subsystem, the SAMS combines media access and control with a robust, multi-layered storage subsystem to support the long term analysis, access, training, distribution, and storage goals of your application. The RAID subsystem provides a high speed, high capacity storage location designed to provide fast off-loads. The RAID subsystem can be expanded to hundreds of Terabytes to support your ever growing need for additional storage space.
