Counter-Drone System
Some RF analysers use sensors to detect radio communications between drones and their
controllers, identifying the drone’s presence. However, in spectrally saturated environments like
urban areas, detecting unauthorized drone communication can be challenging. Thus, a more
sophisticated and precise solution is required.
Advanced counter-drone technology is essential to defend against modern drone threats,
ranging from intelligence gathering to armed attacks. Netline’s anti-drone systems can detect
drones and track their flight paths. The DroneNet counter-drone solutions provide full protection
by jamming the communication between the drone and its controller, effectively disabling the
drone and eliminating the potential threat.
A revolution in warfare has occurred with the increased use of drones. The number of
adversaries using inexpensive, off-the-shelf, and DIY drones has surged, creating significant
security threats worldwide. These drones can attack military bases, VIP convoys, or civilians,
causing massive damage and loss of life without proper counter-drone systems.
Drones pose an asymmetrical threat to frontline forces, exposing them to attacks from the air. Their widespread availability allows any individual or group to acquire and adapt them for malicious purposes, including DIY drone attacks. Additionally, drones’ intelligence-gathering capabilities represent a major security threat. Protection from drones requires a holistic, multi layered, and comprehensive counter-drone defense system.
Defense and police forces, as well as other at-risk entities, need efficient and effective drone
protection measures. Netline’s multi-layered counter-drone defense systems, the DroneNet
product line, are designed to eliminate drone threats in all weather conditions. These systems form a protective shield around the forces, preventing drones from penetrating the covered area.
Netline’s multi-layered anti-drone systems provide a holistic solution for electronic warfare drone
protection. These layers can be customized according to operational requirements. Our
solutions create a virtual protective dome that isolates and prevents unauthorized drones from
intruding into critical airspace, disabling them in real time. Our powerful anti-drone protection
uses three defense measures: drone detection, drone tracking, and drone jamming. Netline's
systems include a mission control system that can be operated from a central command room,
even remotely.
Many counter-drone solutions on the market cannot differentiate between different types of
drones and face technological challenges in urban and crowded areas. Netline’s solution
accurately identifies threats among multiple transmissions and land-based obstacles without
interfering with or being interfered by other spectral activities such as Wi-Fi transmissions.
Netline uses continuous analysis of radio transmissions through direction-finding (DF) radio
frequency (RF) sensors to analyse the bands used by commercial and non-commercial drones.
When a drone is detected, the DroneNet platform can track its location and path. Strategically
deploying two or more DF sensors in the area provides precise localization abilities, ensuring
comprehensive and effective drone detection and tracking throughout their flight paths.
Our counter-drone systems use communication jamming technology to disable drones by
disrupting the communication between the controller and the drone. The jammer transmits
interfering radio signals to all relevant bands used by commercial and non-commercial drones,
causing the drone to either return to its point of origin or crash.
The DroneNet platform offers a wide range of configurations, from large-scale fixed installations to rapid deployment, vehicular and manpack systems, all designed to meet the requirements of tactical counter-drone missions in accordance with military standards.
Netline’s C4I control system allows full mission control, providing a real-time display of detected threats. The C4I system is designed for easy and intuitive operation by a single operator.
The available system configurations include:
