TDOA FTD1 Detection Equipment

Description

TDOA FTD1 is a passive radio frequency drone detection system designed for complex urban environments. A single FTD1 independently detects and identifies drones, while multiple networked FTD1 units locate and track drones via TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) algorithm. Featuring super-wide 100 MHz – 6 GHz frequency coverage, 2–6 km detection radius, 35+ simultaneous drone tracking, sub-1-second detection refresh, and an updatable drone database supporting DJI, non-DJI, DIY, FPV, WiFi, and racing drones — all in an integrated, easy-to-deploy design with whitelist/blacklist capability.

Passive Detection – Covert & Interference-Free

The FTD1 operates in passive radio monitoring mode — no signal transmission — making it environmentally friendly, highly covert, and suitable for deployment in sensitive urban electromagnetic environments without causing interference to existing communications infrastructure.

Key Detection Capabilities

• 100 MHz – 6 GHz Frequency Coverage – Super-wide bandwidth capturing all commercial drone communication frequencies
• 2–6 km Detection Radius – Long-range coverage varying by environment and drone model
• 35+ Simultaneous Drone Detection – Monitor multiple airborne threats concurrently
• Detection Target: Both drone video transmission and control link signals
• <1 Second Average Refresh Time – Near real-time detection result updates
• ≤1 False Alarm Per Day – Low false alarm rate for reliable operational monitoring

Updatable Drone Database

The FTD1 supports an updatable drone model database covering DJI drones, non-DJI commercial drones, DIY/homemade drones, WiFi-based drones, FPV drones, and racing drones — ensuring detection capability keeps pace with evolving drone threats.

TDOA Networking for Drone Positioning

Multiple FTD1 units can be networked for large-scale TDOA-based drone positioning and tracking, enabling precise location of drone threats across wide areas — ideal for protecting airports, critical infrastructure, government facilities, and major event venues.

Integrated Design – Easy Deployment

• All-in-One Compartment – All modules integrated for simplified installation and field deployment
• Whitelist/Blacklist Classification – Distinguish cooperative (authorized) from uncooperative (unauthorized) drones
• Scalable Architecture – Add more FTD1 units to extend coverage and improve positioning accuracy

Application Scenarios

• Airport Protection – Perimeter drone threat detection for airfield safety
• Critical Infrastructure – Power plants, oil refineries, government buildings
• Major Events – Concerts, sports events, diplomatic gatherings
• Military & Defense – Base perimeter monitoring and airspace security
• Urban Security – City-wide drone surveillance in complex electromagnetic environments
