Imagine a drone floating above your site at 2 a.m. When the personnel are gone. Portable solutions won’t save you. Leaders implement a fixed anti-drone sensor to observe the perimeter at all times, integrate UAV threat detection with the SOC, and roll out consistent fixed drone detection across sensitive perimeters.
How a Fixed Anti-Drone Sensor Builds Persistent Coverage
Fixed units maintain power and a network connection. Dedrone RF sensors identify and locate drones and pilots out to 5km using passive detection. Radar enables all-weather, multi-target detection regardless of light levels, including altitude information. PTZ cameras are utilized for visual confirmation and forensic video capture.
UAV Threat Detection UAV in Layered Systems
One sensor alone will not work. The best platforms are combining RF, Radar, and Optics, with AI/ ML, to differentiate unauthorized drones in a static airspace. This reduces false alerts and provides immediate notification.
Benefits of Fixed Drone Detection for Critical Sites
Fixed systems provide ongoing security for airports, prisons, utilities, etc. The combined market value of fixed and portable detection equipment is expected to exceed 2.8 billion dollars by the year 2030 due to the demands placed by key infrastructure sites. Automatic responses, such as triggering lights and cueing cameras, can also be enabled through a fixed detection system.
Key Takeaway
The fixed anti-drone sensor provides constant awareness, and through combining detection of UAV threats, UAV data feeds, and scaling of the fixed drone detection capability, the team’s response is reduced from minutes to seconds.
UAV Defence offers leading anti-drone technology solutions to the public and private sectors, ranging from portable devices to fixed drone detection capabilities. They strive to deliver scalable and reliable technology to provide the ability to detect, track, and disable unauthorized aerial threats.
FAQs
What does a fixed sensor do?
Constant monitoring of RF and radar is utilized to detect and determine the location of drones and their operators.
How is automated detection better?
It can work all the time, both in daytime and nighttime, as it has a greater reach than the spotters.
Why choose fixed over portable?
Fixed offers round-the-clock support and connects to security systems.
Does it work in bad weather?
Yes, it detects light and weather, but it is able to see beyond this as well
Can it integrate with existing VMS?
Yes, the platforms nowadays converge with video, access control, and PSIM.
