SkyControl Jamming and Spoofing

SkyControl Jammer

The Skycontrol Skyguard jammer is a counter-drone technology designed to neutralise the threat posed by unauthorised or hostile drones.


  1. Detection: Skycontrol RF begins by detecting the presence of a drone. It locates and tracks the drones in the airspace.
  2. Identification: Once a drone is detected, the system identifies it by analysing its radio frequency signature. Different drones communicate with their controllers on different frequencies, most using commercial ISM communication protocols or specific drone frequencies (e.g., 433MHz, 800/900MHz, 2.4 GHz, 5.2GHz or 5.8 GHz bands).
  3. Jamming: The core functionality of the Skyguard is to disrupt the communication between the drone and its operator. Once the system has identified the frequency on which the drone is operating, it broadcasts a jamming signal on that same frequency. This signal overwhelms the communication between the drone and its remote control, causing several possible effects:
    1. Loss of control: The drone operator can no longer control the drone, causing it to hover in place, return to its home position, or land, depending on the drone's programming.
    2. GPS interference: The jammer can also interfere with the drone's GPS signal, which may cause the drone to lose its position, become disoriented, or initiate a fail-safe return-to-home procedure.
    3. Video feed disruption: Many drones transmit live video to the operator. Jamming the communication signals can block or distort this video feed.
  5. Safe Mitigation: Skyguard will then force the drone to land or return to its point of origin. This provides a non-lethal, safe way to neutralise the drone without destroying it or causing collateral damage.


SkyControl Spoofer

The SkyControl spoofer is a counter-drone technology designed to manipulate and take control of unauthorized or hostile drones by spoofing their communication and navigation systems. 


  1. Detection and Identification: Like the Skyguard jammer, the spoofer first detects the presence of a drone using SkyControl RF. It then identifies the type of drone and its communication protocols, such as the frequencies used for communication with the operator and its navigation system (e.g., GPS or GLONASS).
  2. Signal Spoofing: Once the drone is detected and identified, the SkyControl spoofer generates fake signals that mimic those from the drone's GPS navigation system. This creates the illusion that the spoofer is the legitimate controller or provides false location data to the drone’s navigation system. The two main types of spoofing are:
    1. GPS Spoofing: The spoofer transmits stronger GPS signals than the actual satellites, tricking the drone into believing that its location has changed. By providing the drone with false GPS coordinates, the spoofer can confuse the drone, forcing it to fly to a different location or even make it return to the spoofer’s designated “safe” area.
  4. Drone Takeover or Misguidance: SkyControl spoofer can send the drone off-course by altering its GPS coordinates, confusing it about its actual location, which can lead to disorientation or causing the drone to follow a false path.
  5. Neutralisation or Recovery: Once the SkyControl Spoofer successfully takes control of the drone, it can land the drone or steer it away from the restricted area. This non-destructive method is often used in scenarios where the goal is to recover the drone for investigation or avoid damaging infrastructure and other equipment.


The spoofing approach is a sophisticated form of counter-drone defense, as it directly manipulates the drone’s control system rather than simply blocking its communication signals, like a jammer. This makes the SkyControl spoofer an ideal tool for safely neutralising and capturing drones.
