Anti Drone Jamming Techniques

A method and system for managing low-altitude drone safety using integrated communication and interference base stations. The system enables real-time monitoring and control of drones through cellular network coverage, while also providing directional interference capabilities to prevent unauthorized drone operations. Authorized drones transmit flight data through the network, while unauthorized drones are detected and disrupted through interference signals. The system integrates communication and perception functions, enabling simultaneous coverage and interference management.

System for detecting, tracking, and managing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using a network of sensors and portable countermeasure devices. The system employs video, audio, Wi-Fi, and RF sensors to detect and identify UAVs, and a central processing unit to analyze sensor data and determine UAV locations. When a UAV is detected, the system transmits location information to nearby portable countermeasure devices, which can then generate and transmit disruptive signals to deter the UAV. The system also enables real-time tracking and monitoring of UAVs, and can store information on known UAVs to improve detection and management capabilities.

Jamming an OFDM-operated unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that operates in restricted airspace by selectively interfering with its communication signals. The method involves generating a delayed version of the UAV's OFDM signal, which is then transmitted through the same frequency band. This interference causes the UAV to lose its intended communication link, preventing unauthorized operation in restricted areas.

Reducing detectability of wireless communications by using retransmission techniques to chain signals through attritable unmanned vehicles. This involves deploying retrans vehicles like drones with powerful transmitters to relay signals between low-power emitters and recipients. This hides the originating device's location and reduces its signature compared to direct transmission. The retrans vehicles can be cached, launched on demand, or preprogrammed routes. They can also spoof enemy radars to further obscure their position. The emitters can calibrate signals for specific retrans vehicles based on known locations and capabilities.

Drone defense system that can take over control of hostile drones without physically intercepting them. The system uses sensors to detect drones and their remote controls. When a drone is detected, the defense system sends signals to disconnect the remote control and take over drone control. This can be done by sending commands to change control channels or by reading telemetry data. The defense system can also align cameras to the detected drone position and capture images for verification. The goal is to safely take over hostile drones without putting bystanders at risk.
