Real-time signal validation method and system

A system comprising:

• a computer readable medium storing satellite profile information;
• and
• at least one processing device operably coupled to the computer readable medium, the at least one processing device executing instructions to:
• determine a subset of terminals in a peer group of satellite terminals, wherein the subset of terminals are located in a geographic area;
• receive a plurality of measurements of an operational statistic from each of the satellite terminals in the subset of terminals, wherein the plurality of measurements of the operational statistic are measured while at least one environmental condition is causing interference in the geographic area including the subset of terminals, such that the subset of terminals are experiencing a signal degradation;
• update a previously determined peer group operational statistic based on the plurality of measurements;
• and
• perform a signal validation of a terminal in the geographic area, while the at least one environmental condition is causing interference in the geographic area, using an updated deviation value.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• determine a subset of terminals in a peer group of satellite terminals, wherein the subset of terminals are located in a geographic area;
• receive a plurality of measurements of an operational statistic from each of the satellite terminals in the subset of terminals, wherein the plurality of measurements of the operational statistic are measured while at least one environmental condition is causing interference in the geographic area including the subset of terminals, such that the subset of terminals are experiencing a signal degradation;
• update a previously determined peer group operational statistic based on the plurality of measurements;
• and
• perform a signal validation of a terminal in the geographic area, while the at least one environmental condition is causing interference in the geographic area, using an updated deviation value.
