Systems and methods for detecting, tracking and identifying small unmanned systems such as drones

A system for providing integrated detection and countermeasures against unmanned aerial vehicles include a detecting element, a location determining element and an interdiction element. The detecting element detects an unmanned aerial vehicle in flight in the region of, or approaching, a property, place, event or very important person. The location determining element determines the exact location of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The interdiction element can either direct the unmanned aerial vehicle away from the property, place, event or very important person in a non-destructive manner, or can cause disable the unmanned aerial vehicle in a destructive manner.

Special energy sensing espionage detector

An energy sensing espionage detector is disclosed. The detector is designed to alert on compromised LED lighting sources used by spies on unsuspecting corporations and individuals. The detector counters one threat vector that is emerging from newly mandated energy policies to replace conventional lighting with energy efficient LED lighting. The detector senses that information is being transmitted by the light source using pulsed or modulated energy that is not detectable by the human eye.

System and method for detecting and defeating a drone

A system for detecting and defeating a drone is disclosed which includes a detection antenna array configured to detect the drone and a control signal of the drone in a 360 degree field, the detection antenna array being further configured to detect the directionality of the drone with reference to the most dominant of the control signal of the drone detected by each of a plurality of antennas within the detection antenna array; a neutralization system disposed in communication with the detection antenna array; the neutralization system including a transmission antenna configured to transmit an override signal to the detected drone, an amplifier configured to modulate a gain of the override signal, and a processing device configured to generate the override signal and control transmission of the override signal.

Wideband RF spectrum real-time monitor

A sensor system comprises a laser source that emits a pump beam at a first wavelength and a probe beam at a second wavelength, and an optical means for receiving the pump and probe beams. The optical means is operative to generate a plurality of light beams, each having a different frequency, from the pump and probe beams. One or more cells receive the light beams from the optical means and allow passage of the light beams therethrough, with the cells containing alkali atoms. A dichroic filter is configured to receive the light beams from the cells. The dichroic filter separates pump beam light and probe beam light from the light beams. A detector array receives the probe beam light from the dichroic filter. The detector array includes a two-dimensional array of photosensors that map out transmission of respective light beams corresponding to the probe beam light through the cells.

DETERRENT FOR UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS
20190072644 · 2019-03-07 ·

A system for providing integrated detection and deterrence against an unmanned vehicle including but not limited to aerial technology unmanned systems using a detection element, a tracking element, an identification element and an interdiction or deterrent element. Elements contain sensors that observe real time quantifiable data regarding the object of interest to create an assessment of risk or threat to a protected area of interest. This assessment may be based e.g., on data mining of internal and external data sources. The deterrent element selects from a variable menu of possible deterrent actions. Though designed for autonomous action, a Human in the Loop may override the automated system solutions.

Alarm initiation when sensor is intentionally jammed
10140847 · 2018-11-27 · ·

Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for alarm initiation when a sensor is intentionally jammed. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a connected home system can include a controller device and a sensor device. The sensor device can include a processor and memory. The memory can store sensor instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the sensor device to perform sensor operations. In particular, the sensor device can detect a jamming signal originating, for example, from a jamming device that is intentionally attempting to jam operations of the sensor device. The sensor device can determine whether the jamming signal is above a jamming alarm threshold. If the sensor device determines that the jamming signal is above the jamming alarm threshold, the sensor device can generate a jamming alarm event that is directed to the controller device. The sensor device can send the jamming alarm event to the controller device.
