Aspect | Urban Areas | Open Areas |
---|---|---|
Detection Challenges | – Lots of buildings and other objects make it hard to spot drones – Many electronic signals from devices cause interference |
– Large areas to cover with fewer obstacles – Weather like wind and rain can make detection harder |
Detection Solutions | – Advanced Radars: Special radars to tell drones apart from buildings and other objects – Sound Sensors: Can hear drone sounds, but city noise can make it harder – Cameras with AI: Smart cameras that can identify drones in busy city areas |
– Long-Range Radars: Radars that can scan wide, open areas and detect drones from far away – Heat Cameras: Cameras that detect drones by their heat, useful in open spaces or at night – Signal Detectors: Detects radio signals from drones in areas with fewer electronic distractions |
Neutralization Challenges | – Risk of hurting people or damaging buildings – Small and tight spaces between buildings make it harder to stop drones |
– Drones may come from far away, so they need to be stopped early – Wind and weather can affect stopping methods |
Neutralization Solutions | – Precise Jamming: Blocks drone signals without affecting other devices nearby – Lasers: Can target drones accurately without harming surroundings – Nets: Catch drones without causing damage |
– Long-Range Jamming: Stops drone signals from a long distance with fewer risks – Kinetic Systems: Uses stronger methods like projectiles to stop drones – Interceptor Drones: Drones sent to catch or disable other drones from far away |
