FTA1 TDOA+AOA Drone Detector is a passive drone detection system with intrusion alarm, identification, direction-finding, and networking location capabilities. A single FTA1 detects and determines drone direction via AOA (Angle of Arrival), while multiple networked FTA1 units locate drones precisely via TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) algorithm. Covering 100 MHz – 6 GHz with 2–5 km detection range, 3°–10° azimuth accuracy, IP65 protection, and -30°C to 65°C operation — the FTA1 emits no signal, making it interference-free and ideal for urban and sensitive environments.
Dual Detection Modes – TDOA + AOA
- Single Unit – Direction Finding (AOA) – One FTA1 independently detects drones and determines their direction with 3°–10° azimuth accuracy
- Multi-Unit – Location (TDOA) – Multiple networked FTA1 units precisely locate drones via Time Difference of Arrival algorithm
- Passive Operation – No signal emission, interference-free, suitable for urban and electromagnetically sensitive areas
Detection Performance
- 100 MHz – 6 GHz Frequency Coverage – Full spectrum monitoring of all commercial drone frequencies
- 2–5 km Detection Range – Long-range coverage varying by environment and drone model
- 2–4 km Direction-Finding Range – Accurate bearing information for single-unit operation
- 3°–10° Azimuth Error – Precise direction finding for rapid threat assessment
