Non-kinetic counter-UAV measures operate by disrupting or intercepting communication signals. Such methods typically culminate in the drone descending at a significant speed, making them ill-suited for use in crowded environments. However, they can be effective in other situations. It is vital to check the legal regulations in your country concerning drone countermeasures, as the use of drone jammers and spoofers is illegal in the United States. We will now consider various non-kinetic C-UAS approaches.
The principle behind jammers involves the generation of electromagnetic noise on the radio frequencies that drones use for their operations and data transmission. This noise effectively obscures the communication between the drone and its operator. The frequencies typically involved are 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz, which are unassigned public frequencies. This ensures that the jammers do not disrupt manned aircraft, mobile phones, public broadcasts, or other specific radio bands.
Jammers may be designed as fixed, mounted units or as part of highly portable, firearm-style devices that permit the safe landing of drones.
In accordance with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the use of drone jammers is deemed unlawful in the United States.
The intentional use of a 'cell phone jammer' or similar device to block, disrupt, or interfere with authorized radio communications is prohibited under federal law. Such devices, including signal blockers, GPS jammers, and text blockers, can significantly endanger critical public safety communications, preventing individuals from making 9-1-1 and other emergency calls. Additionally, these jammers can interfere with the communications of law enforcement personnel.
The deployment of a jammer in the United States can attract significant monetary fines, the confiscation of illegal apparatus, and criminal charges, which may lead to imprisonment.
