Jamming threat to O&G wireless links For communication, Oil & Gas offshore platforms deploy Point to Point Digital Microwave, VSAT links, Troposcater links & VHF Audio links Signal Jamming is a significant threat which cause the breakage or disruption of the wireless link between the platform and the outside world Enforcement Agencies like Police & Customs report that crime syndicates are already using Jammers to thwart enforcement operations All types of Jammers are easily available now. FBI considers Jamming as a bigger threat than the Viruses, Worms and Trojans in a Wireless world. As petroleum assets are becoming increasingly important , proactive measures should be taken to alleviate any threat to its operation Signal jamming is quite disastrous to an O&G platform as there is no wireline link as back up. SIGNAL JAMMING already reported by SECURITY AGENCIES It is a REAL THREAT to any WIRELESS INFRA Any disruption to the communication from the platform causes Reduced production, loss of revenue Increased security vulnerability and Overall reduced operational efficiency

Jamming threat to O&G wireless links Jammers with directional antennas have a very long reach Multiple types of jammers easily available in the market Wideband/ multi band jammers are becoming more common VHF/Microwave jammers are quite low cost jammers Jamming is a low tech, low cost yet highly disastrous threat

Jamming of the Digital Microwave link OFDM based Wi. Fi / Wi. MAX links and Proprietary ( QAM, QPSK ) links are extremely vulnerable These links are not designed for anti Jamming. Simple Transmitters in the same frequency can break the links easily High level of vulnerability to the signal jamming threat Needs a Jam Proof back up link for withstanding a jamming threat A Jamming attack could be conducted from the land or from the sea by using directional antennas Jamming attack from a moving platform ( Car or a boat ) is almost impossible to locate A land based low power jamming source ( in 10 s of Watts) with a directional antenna can bring down the land based Radio terminal easily. The commercially available modems employing QAM, OFDM or similar techniques are highly vulnerable to signal jamming. Even a low level of jamming is able to break the link completely.

Jamming of VSAT Links VSAT links are highly vulnerable due to the low received power Low power seaborne jammer or high power land based jammer to break the link Jammers for satellite links are available in the market Due to the jamming threat, new satellites being designed are going to be provided anti jamming.

• Jamming the Troposcater & VHF links Troposcater links are highly vulnerable VHF, HFIP , Troposcater links are not designed to withstand interference Low power jammers can bring down these links

TRIATA : JAM PROOF MICROWAVE LINK Polarizone has developed a Jam Proof Digital Microwave link called TRIATA. This novel product is based on a Patented antijamming wireless communication technology called Pseudo-random Polarization Hopping. TRIATA Wireless link is capable of withstanding all types of jamming attacks. TRIATA has proven to be effective against the most deadly Jamming systems used even in Military applications. First Jam Proof Digital Microwave Range : 1 km – 50 Km Frequency: 2. 4 GHz, Customizable to any band Capacity: 64 kbps to 2 Mbps Interfaces: E 1/T 1, Ethernet, USB, RS 232 c Modulation : 2 in 2 out MIMO with Space Time Code for anti jamming Architecture: SDR

Jamming resistance comparison between TRIATA and other links TRIATA Link DOES NOT break Jamming signal 10 d. B stronger than Triata link signal TRIATA Link DOES NOT break TRIATA Link signal before jamming TRIATA signal flooded by high power jamming signal Jamming signal 30 d. B below the link signal of a normal Microwave link ( OFDM, QAM, QPSK etc ) Normal Links BREAK even when the jammer signal is well below the link signal Normal links does not have anti jamming features Normal links break easily Normal link signal with a very low power jamming signal

Conclusion Existing O&G wireless links are vulnerable to Jamming threat Signal Jamming is not a perceived threat anymore Law enforcement agencies are reporting jamming attacks A jamming attack on O&G links will result in Reduced production, loss of revenue Increased security vulnerability and Overall reduced operational efficiency Normal Digital microwave links are not Jam proof TRITA is the only JAM PROOF Microwave link in the market TRITA offers the highest level of survivability and security to the O&G links For a product demonstration or quotation, kindly contact; Narayanan Manoj, CTO, Polarizone Technologies at manoj. narayanan@polarizone. com / +6016. 327. 3857 Adil, Business Development Manager, SCOPETEL at adilz@scopetel. com. my / +6012. 229. 9722 For more information on the product, kindly visit www. polarizone. com or mail to info@polarizone. com
