Systems and methods for monitoring signal performance to analyze weather effect and guide recovery actions

A system for monitoring and control of satellite signal performance in a satellite transmission system, the system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory device storing a set of instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:
• obtain signal data at a data lake from at least some of a plurality of customer receivers, wherein the signal data is obtained from downlink signal beams received at the plurality of customer receivers from the satellite spacecraft, wherein the plurality of customer receivers are located across a diverse geographical region, and wherein the signal data include metadata;
• access the signal data at the data lake from the monitoring and control system;
• measure the signal data from each of the signal beams that were obtained across the diverse geographical region;
• analyze metadata from components of the satellite transmission system, signal source front end controls, and spectral sampling;
• identify signal degradation due to weather effects from the signal data of actual spot beam coverage using the measured signal data and the analyzed metadata;
• correlate signal degradation to probable causes of the signal degradation due to the weather effects;
• and
• predict remediation actions to correct the signal degradation due to the weather effects;
• and
• execute one or more remediation actions to correct the signal degradation due to the weather effects.
