TDOA Drone Detection Equipment

TDOA Drone Detection Equipment (FTD1 / FTD1-mini) is a passive RF-based detection system enabling real-time identification and tracking of drone activity across wide-area security environments.

Key Features:
✔️ Passive TDOA detection — no signal transmission, fully covert operation
✔️ Wide frequency coverage from 100MHz to 6GHz for control and video links
✔️ Detects 1,000+ drone models including DJI, Autel, and FPV platforms
✔️ FTD1 range: 2–6 km with simultaneous detection of 35+ drones
✔️ FTD1-mini range: 0.5–2 km with 30+ drone detection capacity
✔️ Sub-1 second refresh rate with <1 false alarm per day performance
✔️ High anti-interference wideband antenna system
✔️ IP66 (FTD1) and IP65 (mini) rated for harsh environmental conditions
✔️ Supports multi-unit networking for TDOA-based drone triangulation
✔️ Whitelist/blacklist functionality for cooperative vs non-cooperative drone filtering

TDOA Drone Detection Equipment

The TDOA Drone Detection Equipment is a passive RF sensing system available in two configurations: FTD1 and FTD1-mini — both operating across 100MHz–6GHz frequency ranges targeting video transmission and remote-control links between drones and operators. The FTD1 measures 265×265×660mm, weighs approximately 12kg, carries IP66 protection, and operates between -40°C and 65°C with a detection range of 2–6km and simultaneous swarm detection of 35 or more drones. It uses a specialized wide-bandwidth antenna with strong anti-interference capability, averaging fewer than one false alarm per day and refreshing detection results in under one second.

The FTD1-mini is a miniaturized variant measuring 185×185×350mm and weighing approximately 5kg, with IP65 protection and a detection range of 0.5–2km, simultaneously detecting 30 or more drones. It deploys flexibly on traffic signal poles, communication masts, and street lamp poles without dedicated infrastructure. Both models support TDOA-based passive detection — no signal transmission occurs during operation, making them environmentally neutral and undetectable to counter-surveillance systems. Each unit identifies over 1,000 drone models including DJI, Autel, and self-assembled FPV platforms, with whitelist and blacklist functions distinguishing cooperative from non-cooperative drones.

Security teams deploy the TDOA Drone Detection Equipment at city-wide monitoring networks, airports, industrial parks, stadiums, and major event venues where unauthorized drone intrusions require real-time identification. Multiple units network together using TDOA algorithms to triangulate precise drone locations across large coverage zones. Critical infrastructure protection teams install FTD1 units at power stations and government facilities requiring long-range perimeter drone monitoring.

For security agencies and infrastructure protection teams requiring passive drone detection networks, Tactical Supply Pakistan supplies both FTD1 configurations with consultation on network deployment planning, coverage zone mapping, and power supply options including POE and optional solar for remote installation sites.

How does TDOA-based detection locate a drone without emitting any signal?
TDOA measures the time difference of arrival of the drone’s own RF transmissions across multiple networked units, calculating position through signal timing triangulation — requiring zero emissions from the detection equipment itself.
