Real-time drone detection system

25 November 2020 Test & Measurement

Aaronia announced the release of its sixth generation real-time drone detection system. The new AARTOS system monitors all frequency bands in real time, and has direction finding and frequency monitoring capability, with a sweep speed of up to 48 THz/s.

The system is also highly effective in detecting and neutralising drones that make use of 3G, 4G and 5G cellular frequency bands. It uses the latest Al-based multi-target image and RF pattern recognition, as well as optical triangulation with multiple PTZ cameras, to find drones and their operators.

The AARTOS drone detection system features a virtually unlimited detection range. Usually, the detection range is equal to (or larger than) the maximum distance between the operator and the drone, depending on the transmission power of the drone and/or its operator. The latest AARTOS DDS V6 generation can handle a DJI Phantom 4 FCC drone from a range of 50 km or more. The specific range depends on factors such as drone type and topography.

The system was designed to detect and defeat the intrusion of unwanted drones at airports, places of national importance, borders, and many other sensitive environments. It is highly customisable and adaptable for all scenarios and budgets, from the mobile laptop version to high-end solutions for airports and military applications.
