Product Profile
Introduction
AEROSCOPE TM detects UAVs flying within a particular surveillance area. Aeroscope
receives UAV broadcast information of various formats, and then sends the information to
the data processing platform via Ethernet or a 2G, 3G, or 4G wireless network card. The
receiver and antenna can be configured in a number of different ways. Also, Aeroscope has
integrated GPS, so users can see where the unit is on a map. And it offers BIST (built-in self-
testing) functionality for regularly timed self-tests and remote self-tests, as well as accurate
environmental spectrum detection.
* Aeroscope should be used with the DJI Background Management System (sold separately).

Features
Features Descriptions
In an interference-free environment, signal reception range
may be vary when different antennas are used. When using
the omnidirectional antenna (3dBi), signal reception range can
reach:
Over 7 km for Mavic
Long-range detection Over 5 km for Phantom series
Over 3 km for Spark
The signal reception range is about twice as much as the
omnidirectional antenna when using the low-gain directional
antenna (8dBi) and about four times when using the high-gain
directional antenna (16dBi).
Aeroscope needs less than two seconds to detect an aircraft
Quick detection and less than five seconds for real-time display via the remote
server.
Easy installation Aeroscope can be installed and configured within half an hour.
