Sisrain announced that as the government promotes infrastructure and institutional improvements to expand the operation of anti-drone (radio wave jamming devices) for blocking illegal drones, the development of the 'Large Drone Integrated Control System' is expected to accelerate.
Following the recent registration of a patent for 'airborne jamming evasion technology,' Sisrain is concentrating all its capabilities on developing the 'Large Drone Integrated Control System' in response to the government's regulatory relaxation efforts. The company plans to build a system that strengthens expertise in the anti-drone field by forming a consortium with small and medium-sized enterprises.
The Large Drone Integrated Control System operates under the command of a drone control center that controls drone information and neutralization equipment through three stages: detection, identification, and neutralization. This technology collects data from detection equipment, enabling real-time monitoring and the establishment of an anti-drone response system. By analyzing and visualizing the data, it is expected to improve the accuracy of jamming while enhancing operational efficiency through integrated management.
Using an ASEA (Active Electronically Scanned Array) radar for drones, it detects the movement of drones located within a radius of 10 to 13 km and collects real-time location information such as distance, direction, and speed of approaching drones. Detected targets are identified using an electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) camera capable of capturing high-resolution visible and thermal images. The EO/IR camera supports high-magnification zoom and identifies drones moving in the air based on real-time location information from the drone control center.
There are two methods for jamming illegal drones: 'soft kill,' which disrupts communication signals between the drone and its operator using radio signals, and 'hard kill,' which physically attacks the drone by shooting target drones, bullets, lasers, etc. Soft kill can neutralize drones up to 7 km away using portable jammers, while hard kill applies AI tracking technology to shoot down targets at speeds of 200 km/h.
The government announced in October this year, through the '4th Basic Radio Promotion Plan,' plans to establish legal grounds for anti-drone testing and training and to expand the operation of anti-drone training grounds nationwide. The policy to ease unnecessary regulations in the industry, such as abolishing the mandatory approval for export-use anti-drone devices to promote exports, is expected to be a turning point for the global anti-drone industry and to invigorate Sisrain's export of military and industrial anti-drone technologies.
A Sisrain official said, "The Large Drone Integrated Control System detects frequencies under the control of the drone control center and establishes and operates a response system for friend-or-foe identification of drones, enabling the neutralization of enemy attacks with fixed or portable jammers." He added, "Anti-drone technology has attracted interest not only from domestic key industries and military units but also from overseas, providing an opportunity to export excellent technology abroad."
