What is Anti-Drone?

Anti-Drone systems refer to systems used to detect, identify and neutralize a hostile or rogue drone. These systems can perform several functions, including detection, identification and classification, locating and tracking, Generate Alerts and Triggering a Jamming System. Several technologies help detect a drone based on its distance, altitude, type, etc., the most common being Radars, Radio Frequency (RF) Analysers, Electro-Optical (EO)/Infrared (IR) Sensors, optical sensors and acoustic sensors. RADAR is the most popular technology used in these anti-drone systems y for detecting drones. Currently, various C-UAS use 2D and 3D RADARS for accurate detection and location of drones. Anti-drone systems detect drones in the area of surveillance and detect birds, kites, other flying/floating objects, and moving objects on the ground.

Growth Driver

Rising number of illicit activities and incidences of security breaches by unidentified drones

The increasing use of modern drones to carry out terror missions, smuggling, aerial surveillance at restricted/secured zones and public gatherings like sporting events, political rallies, etc., has increased the demand for anti-drone systems to protect against potential threats across the globe.
