Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone countermeasures technology, specifically a drone harassment defense device for key areas. Background Technology

[0002] With the rise of the low-altitude economy, my country has clearly put forward the ambitious goal of accelerating the construction of a new strategic industry for the low-altitude economy. In recent years, my country's drones have gradually developed towards consumer-oriented models characterized by "low, slow, and small" speeds, and the development of countermeasure technologies cannot keep pace with the speed of drone upgrades.

[0003] With the popularization of drone technology, incidents of unauthorized drones intruding into sensitive airspace are frequent. These drones are often high-end and have evolved from single aerial photography tools to intelligent, stealthy, and swarm-based technologies. They possess multi-functional and rapid maneuverability, as well as enhanced proactive countermeasures capabilities, further weakening the effectiveness of traditional detection methods. If drones are equipped with explosives, espionage devices, or electromagnetic interference devices, they pose a serious threat to national and public safety.

[0004] Current drone defense methods mainly include:

[0005] Electromagnetic interference: This method forces the target UAV to land or return by suppressing its GNSS signal or control link. However, it suffers from problems such as a single interference spectrum, low power efficiency, and the risk of accidentally damaging surrounding equipment.

[0006] Net-based / laser-based interception: effective at close range, but with a short effective range, making it difficult to deal with high-speed or clustered targets.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a critical area protection device that combines directional and precise jamming, wide spectrum coverage, and intelligent response capabilities. Utility Model Content

[0008] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a device for defending against drone harassment in key areas. In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0012] A power supply module is used to supply power to the control module and the counter-emission component;

[0013] in,

[0014] The high-frequency module includes an exciter, an intermediate amplifier, a power amplifier, a power combiner, and a high-frequency bandpass filter connected in sequence.

[0015] The low-frequency module includes a crystal oscillator, a subcarrier generator, a pulse width modulator, a pulse amplifier, a modulator, and a low-pass filter;

[0029] Preferably, the control module includes a processor, a display screen, and an operation panel, and the control module is capable of sending signals containing operating status information and fault type information to the remote monitoring terminal.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are:

[0031] 1. The omnidirectional horn antenna uses directional and pitch stepper motors to adjust the antenna beam transmission direction and angle, achieving 360° azimuth and +60° to -45° pitch angle adjustment. Once the drone enters the coverage area of ​​the horn antenna, the device can interfere with and drive away the drone's working signal after activation.

It is convenient and quick to use.

[0037] The accompanying drawings are provided to further illustrate the present invention and form part of the specification. They are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to explain the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. In the drawings:

[0038] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the signal processing of this utility model;

[0039] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the signal processing flow of the transmitting module of this utility model;

[0040] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the launch module structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] like Figure 1-3 As shown in this embodiment, the working process of the drone harassment defense device for key areas is as follows:

[0044] Interference signal generation:

[0045] The low-frequency module generates baseband encoded pulses (signals generated by the crystal oscillator / subcarrier generator are sent to the pulse width modulator), which are then amplified, modulated at intermediate frequency, and filtered at low frequency before being input to the high-frequency module power amplifier.

[0046] The high-frequency module generates an RF carrier (the exciter is a high-frequency exciter, and the signal generated by the high-frequency exciter is sent to the intermediate amplifier), which is mixed with the low-frequency signal in the power combiner, and then a pure synthesized signal is output after high-frequency bandpass filtering.

[0047] Directional launch control:

[0048] The control module allows you to set interference parameters (frequency band / power / scanning mode) via the operation panel.

[0049] The radiating unit controller receives the command, and the DRV8316 chip drives the azimuth / elevation stepper motor to rotate the gimbal, so that the antenna beam of the omnidirectional horn antenna is aligned with the target airspace (360° azimuth angle, +60° to -45° elevation angle adjustable).

[0050] Status monitoring and protection:

[0051] The high-power circuit is encased in a shielded metal box (which can be made of aluminum alloy with a wall thickness of not less than 2mm). The intermediate frequency modulator and low-pass filter are integrated into a single circuit board using GaAs technology. Finally, single-board integration is achieved through multi-chip modules or system-in-package.

[0052] The processor monitors the voltage / temperature of each node in real time, and sends a fault code (such as "ERR-PA-OVERTEMP") to the monitoring center via 4G module / Bluetooth module / wired transmission when an anomaly occurs.

[0053] Example 2:

[0054] The radiating element adopts a pyramidal horn (rectangular cross-section) antenna (1.5GHz / 5.8GHz) with a gain ≥8dBi. Through the gradually unfolding horn-shaped structure, it achieves a smooth transition of wave impedance, effectively reducing the standing wave ratio, thereby reducing reflection loss and improving radiation efficiency. Its main function is to radiate the countermeasure signal in a specific direction, thereby improving interference efficiency and directivity.

[0055] Adding two ridge structures between the waveguide section and the horn opening section creates a double-ridged horn antenna. The waveguide section is divided into a feeding structure and a back cavity. The back cavity filters out the higher-order modes excited within the waveguide, and the ridge waveguide lowers the cutoff frequency of the main mode transmission, thereby achieving the goal of widening the bandwidth.

[0056] Example 3:

[0057] The high-frequency module and the low-frequency module are connected by two low-loss RF cables (one main and one backup). The low-frequency module generates an intermediate frequency signal, which is purified by a low-pass filter and then sent to the high-frequency module to complete the RF signal conversion.

[0058] When the equipment is powered on and running normally, the crystal oscillator generates a 10MHz reference frequency source. At this time, the subcarrier generator generates a low-frequency pulse signal. The two signals complete the primary modulation of the low-frequency signal in the pulse width modulator to obtain a frequency signal of 70±5MHz. After the signal power is amplified by the pulse amplifier, it is sent to the intermediate frequency modulator to shift the frequency of the signal to a higher frequency again. At this time, a 100M to 3G intermediate frequency signal is generated. After being sent to the low-pass filter for signal purification, the signal is sent to the high-frequency module.

[0059] A high-frequency exciter generates a radio frequency (RF) signal, which is then amplified to a sufficiently high power level by an intermediate amplifier before being sent to a power amplifier. The power amplifier, power combiner, and high-frequency bandpass filter are housed in a shielded metal box. Inside the metal box, the RF signal generated by the exciter and the intermediate frequency (IF) signal from the low-frequency module are amplified, combined by the power combiner, and then filtered by the high-frequency bandpass filter to remove unwanted harmonics (noise) and become a sine wave. The purified RF signal is then sent to the radiating element adapter (antenna adapter). At this point, the signal level impedance is adjusted to a reasonable reference value suitable for the transmission requirements of the radiating element (omnidirectional horn antenna). Under the drive of the radiating element controller (antenna controller), the signal is then transmitted by the omnidirectional horn antenna.

[0060] Example 4:

[0061] The gimbal's rotation system includes a main control chip, a stepper motor drive circuit, an azimuth stepper motor, and a pitch stepper motor. The coordinated operation of the main control chip and the stepper motor drive circuit ensures the gimbal's stability and accuracy.

[0062] Main control chip

[0063] The driver chip used is the DRV8316, which has a rich internal structure, with three half-bridge driver circuits as one of the core components. Each half-bridge is equipped with overcurrent protection circuitry to prevent current overload. In addition, the chip also includes a charge pump, which functions similarly to a miniature transformer, mainly for voltage regulation, especially for step-down operations.

[0064] The DRV8313 chip is fully functional and requires only a 12V DC power supply to operate. It integrates a charge pump that can output 3.3V to provide a stable power supply for the chip. The chip also provides three low-voltage signal input terminals, three wiring terminals, and reset and sleep pin ports.

[0065] Stepper motor

[0066] The omnidirectional horn antenna is driven to rotate by a stepper motor, thereby controlling the adjustment of the field of view.

[0067] The stepper motor drive circuit is designed based on the DRV8313 chip and can be regarded as a voltage amplifier circuit. Since the microcontroller must drive it through an amplifier circuit, a four-phase stepper motor (azimuth stepper motor and pitch stepper motor) is selected. Each stepper motor is controlled by a four-bit I / O port. Therefore, the lower four bits of the P2 port of the DRV8313 chip control the horizontal direction motor and the higher four bits control the pitch direction motor.

[0068] Example 5:

[0069] The control module is responsible for managing the operation of the entire device. The operation panel has an operation menu, which can perform corresponding functions according to different user needs. Interference parameters, including frequency band, power, and scanning mode (rotational or fixed angle), can be set to enable user interaction.

[0070] When a fault occurs in certain parts of the device, the processor of the control module can prevent the device from starting up or block the device's output, switch to the backup equipment, and at the same time give a fault alarm indication to the computer room.
