The network consists of the [[ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network]] (ISTRAC), augmented by a fully steerable {{convert|18|m|ft|abbr=on}} and a {{convert|32|m|ft|abbr=on}} DSN [[Antenna (radio)|antenna]] which improves the visibility duration when compared with the existing ISTRAC system. The Indian Deep Space Network implements a [[baseband]] system{{clarify}} adhering to [[Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems]] (CCSDS) Standards, thus facilitating cross-support among the Telemetry Tracking Command (TTC) agencies.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.vssc.gov.in/VSSC_V4/index.php/ground-segment/82-chandrayaan-1/967-indian-deep-space-network-idsn |title=Welcome to VIKRAM SARABHAI SPACE CENTRE - Indian Deep Space Network (IDSN) |website=www.vssc.gov.in |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151020022026/http://www.vssc.gov.in/VSSC_V4/index.php/ground-segment/82-chandrayaan-1/967-indian-deep-space-network-idsn |archive-date=2015-10-20}} </ref>

The two antennas at the [[Byalalu]] complex have built-in support facilities.  A [[fibre optic]] link will provide necessary communication link between the DSN station and SCC/NCC/ISSDC. The 18&nbsp;m antenna is provisioned to receive two downlink carriers in [[S band]] and two carriers in [[X band]] ([[Right circular polarization|RCP]] and [[Left circular polarization|LCP]]), whereas the uplink is either RCP or LCP. It has a [[G/T]] of 30/39.5&nbsp;dB/k (45° elevation, clear sky) for S/X-Band.{{clarify}}
