Designation

Automated search on the ground, photo and video recording of unsanctioned multicopter operators.

Performed tasks

— detection and direction-finding of the multicopter remote controller signals;

— locating the multicopter operator via direction-finding of the remote controller from several points;

— automated flight on a bearing to the unsanctioned multicopter operator, photo and video recording of the operator.

Composition

— guided airborne platform:

quadcopter Matrice 300 RTK, two-channel digital receiver, direction- finder antenna, video camera.

— ground control post:

Matrice 300 RTK quadcopter control console, tablet computer.

— charging station;

— special software used for the airborne platform and direction-finder control, operator positioning, video registration of the unsanctioned multicopter operators.

Employment mode

On detection of a multicopter (visually, by a “Groza-S” station or “Cuirass-M” Complex), the controlled airborne platform takes off, ascends to 50-100 m height and performs the search and direction- finding of the multicopter controller signals.

The search for the operator is carried out in two stages.

Stage 1. Locating the operator using the goniometry method.

The airborne platform takes the bearings of the controller from several points in space. An arrest team is sent to the intersecting point of the bearings (the operator location);

Stage 2. Search for the operator using the bearing.

The airborne platform performs automated flight with continuous direction-finding of the multicopter controller, visual search, video registration of the operator’s actions.
