After 4 years of development Aaronia introduces its new Drone Detection System. The Aaronia Drone Detector is used to detect the incursion of unwanted drones, based on the directional real-time measurement of the electromagnetic emissions of drones. It warns the operator when drones are in the area and send alerts.
The rapid proliferation of micro/mini UAVs is a growing potential threat to national and commercial security. Easy to make, cheap to buy, simple to fly, and hard to detect, commercial and non-commercially available drones are one of the most quickly evolving technological threats to military and civilian interests.
The system has no limitation in detection range, usually the detection range is the same as the usable distance from the operator to the drone (or better) so it always depends on the transmitter power of the drone/operator. Depending on the drone type it could be several km / miles without problems.
The drone detector is based on the Aaronia IsoLOG 3D antenna, a real-time Spectrum Analyzer (XFR V5 PRO or RF Command Center) and a special software plugin for the RTSA Suite software. All parts combined allow a 24/7 monitoring and recording with a gapless data-streaming (up to 4TB/day). The system saves considerable measurement time and is compact and flexible. It can be set up at any place you need to control.
