D-Fend Solutions evaluates a range of counter-drone (C-UAS) detection technologies, comparing traditional systems with newer, cyber-based approaches. This video outlines key methods currently in use—including radar, electro-optical sensors, acoustic tools, and RF-based direction finders—highlighting how each technology performs in various environments and operational scenarios.
Limitations such as false positives, weather interference, and line-of-sight restrictions are discussed in detail, providing context for where these traditional systems may fall short. The video also addresses common challenges in urban and high-noise settings, and the need for multi-sensor configurations to improve accuracy and coverage.
D-Fend Solutions presents next-generation RF cyber-based detection as a reliable and precise alternative. This passive scanning method identifies both drone and pilot positions without requiring human verification, and is effective even without line of sight.
