Counter-drone detection and situational picture
What is examined
- Remote ID broadcasts within reception range
- Radio signatures of common consumer and commercial systems
- Times, directions and, where available, the operator position
- Repeated patterns across an observation period
How the examination is carried out
- 1.Site assessment and definition of the detection area
- 2.Installation of passive sensors, temporary or for a defined period
- 3.Continuous recording and documented evaluation
- 4.Handover of a written situational picture with recommendations
Technical limits
These limits are stated before the instruction, not afterwards.
- Detection is passive; jamming or taking control of a drone is not lawful for private operators in Germany.
- Systems without Remote ID and with unusual radio protocols may go undetected.
- Reception range depends strongly on the surroundings and on interference.
- A detection is not automatically evidence of an offence.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Counter-drone detection and situational picture: frequently asked questions
No. Interfering with a drone in flight is not permitted for private operators in Germany. Our work is limited to passive detection and documentation, which can then be handed to the competent authorities.
On site, at the location to be examined. Rooms, cabling, power supply and the radio environment can only be measured where they are; a remote examination is not possible.
Whether an expert report is used in proceedings, and what evidential value it carries, is decided by the competent court or investigating authority. Our examinations are documented so that third parties can review them: recorded handover, cryptographic hashes, described methods and a clear separation between technical finding and assessment. A binding assurance of later admissibility cannot be given.
