| 释义 |
The Australian Defence Satellite Communications Station (ADSCS), an Earth station in Australia is located at Kojarena, {{convert|30|km|mi|abbr=on}} east of Geraldton, Western Australia. The ADSCS is part of the US signals intelligence and analysis network ECHELON.[1][2] The station has four satellite tracking dishes which intercept communications from Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian and Pakistani regional satellites[3] and international communications satellites (INTELSATs and COMSATs), throughout the Indian Ocean and South-East Asian regions. Staff are drawn from the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), and the site is operated under the UKUSA Agreement.[4] In 2007, after signing an agreement[5] it was announced that an additional but separate US military communications facility would be built within the grounds of the ADSCGS. It will consist of three {{convert|19|m|ft|abbr=on}} antennas and two smaller antennas making up a joint US-Australian ground station for the US Department of Defense Mobile User Objective System, a narrow-band networked satellite constellation for Ultra-High-Frequency satellite communications enabling secure all-weather and all-terrain 3-G mobile telecommunications.[6][7][8] References1. ^{{cite news |title= Tracking down the masters of terror |url= http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/03/16/1047749659596.html |work= The Age |date=17 March 2003 |accessdate=2008-02-22}} 2. ^{{cite news |first=Gary |last=Adshead |title=Secret WA spy base |work=The Sunday Times (Perth) |date=10 June 2001 |page=20}} 3. ^Interception of satellite communications Ing Manuel Cereijo, 29 May 2006 The Cuban American National Federation [https://web.archive.org/web/20060721051242/http://www.canf.org/2006/1in/ensayos/2006-may-29-interception.htm archived version] 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://world-information.org/wio/infostructure/100437611746/100438659207/?ic=100446325884 |title=ECHELON Main Stations |publisher=World-Information.Org |date= |accessdate=2010-07-06}} 5. ^"Agreement Between the Government of Australia and the Government of the United States of America on Cooperation in Science and Technology for Homeland/Domestic Security Matters (Washington, 21 December 2005) ATS 15 of 2007“.
