Dataset for "Sticky Fingers: Resilience of Satellite Fingerprinting against Jamming Attacks"

Labelled dataset of Iridium “ring alert” downlink messages, including message headers captured at 25MS/s, with varying amounts of noise added to the signal. Message metadata includes satellite and transmitter identifier, satellite position, timestamp, and estimated noise level. The dataset contains 540066 messages.

This data was originally collected for the paper “Sticky Fingers: Resilience of Satellite Fingerprinting against Jamming Attacks”, and was used to evaluate the resilience of satellite fingerprinting systems against jamming attacks. The work was based upon the previous paper “Watch This Space: Securing Satellite Communication through Resilient Transmitter Fingerprinting”, and uses the paper's trained models and code, linked in the “Related Works” section.
