5. Does it have a high accuracy rate?
Drones can fly 100mph and some are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. Detecting them isn’t enough – once identified, you need to track them accurately, whatever the weather.
Does it still work in conditions with low visibility?
Even in harsh weather, such as heavy fog or storms, your radar system should and must stay fully functional. It should also be able to track drones in busy urban environments with lots of moving objects.
Can it track multiple targets?
Yourcounter UAS radarsystem needs to have the ability to track several targets at the same time.
Does it track targets in real-time?
Tracking should be highly accurate, so you can see the exact position of the drone and its flight path in real time.
Why is this important?
Not alldrone detection systemshave real-time tracking capabilities. Most radio frequency detectors will tell you there is a drone somewhere in the vicinity, but only a handful of top-end systems will locate where it is as well. If you can’t accurately and independently pinpoint multiple targets at once, in any conditions, you’ll be ill-equipped to deal with modern drone threats, like swarming.
Having real-time information about where drones are and have been is also important if you want to feed this data into other integrated sensors, such as cameras and jamming devices.
Can you customise alarm zones?
You should have the option to define virtual zones where drones will trigger alarms when detected and classified, based around your own specific needs and unique environment.
Why is this important?
Customisation options are particularly useful for complex environments where you only want to trigger alarms in certain areas. It’s also helpful if you use your own drones. By creating safe zones where activity is expected, you won’t set off alarms by mistake.
