Countering drones

Detect and defend remote-controlled drones

Drones, that fly above prohibited areas are an increasing security risk. Remote-controlled drones repeatedly violated the privacy of people and the boundaries of protected areas. Some careless drone pilots may not be aware that they present a danger to people and property. Additionally there are operators who knowingly engage in illegal activities – for example, invasion of privacy, smuggling and industrial espionage. Regardless of the drone pilot’s intension, drones pose a serious security risk.

Rohde & Schwarz offers R&S®ARDRONIS as ideal approach for the demanding applications in drone monitoring and countermeasures. It meets the challenges of countering radio¬controlled drones by intercepting the radiocommunications link to reliably detect and capture the direction of pilots and drones.

R&S®ARDRONIS further is part of the drone defense system GUARDION, a cooperation of Rohde & Schwarz, ESG and Diehl Defence.
