Drones, once rarely seen, now really feel common. As the price of consumer-grade commercial and civilian drones has become more and more affordable, drones have begun to be widely used in many fields such as aerial photography, entertainment, news, search and rescue, energy, remote sensing and mapping, agriculture and forestry, transportation, environmental protection, communications, etc. . However, many problems have arisen behind the boom in the UAV market. For example, the phenomenon of "black flying" of UAVs exists from time to time, which brings great security risks to air supervision and air safety.

Countering drones "black flying" is becoming a consensus

 

In order to effectively contain and control the "black flying" chaos of UAVs, the previous countermeasures against small UAVs were basically to shoot down UAV targets with violence. Although the effect is clean and neat, it is inevitable. Bringing danger to the area where the target drone is located, such as crashing debris and hurting people. In addition, if the drone carries dangerous items, the consequences are even more terrifying. Of course, in addition to active attacks, there are passive defense methods, such as electromagnetic interference and sound wave attacks, to force the drone to fly away from the scene, but obviously this is "returning the enemy to the nest" and is not recommended.

"Black Flying" UAV was successfully captured

 

So is there a mainstream and better countermeasure against the "black flying" of drones? Of course, there is currently a UAV capture system used by relevant departments to capture "black flying" UAVs or UAVs with potentially dangerous factors.


The UAV catcher system first selectively interferes with the remote control, GPS, and image transmission signals of the "Black Flying" UAV through the electromagnetic signal interference transmitter, cutting off the control of the "Black Flying" UAV, and enabling The black flying drone is hovering out of control. Then the unmanned aerial vehicle responsible for capturing the "black flying" drone lifts into the air, locks the "black flying" target, launches a large net, captures the target drone and then transports it to a designated area for further processing.

CNLINKO's connection scheme for UAV catcher system

 

The drone catcher system, as a complex system involving various high-tech control technologies, not only uses various sophisticated instruments and components, but also involves the application of a variety of industrial connectors. As a key component of the UAV catcher system, the connector plays the role of ensuring the stable, reliable and safe transmission of the multi-channel power supply and signal of the entire system in a complex environment. CNLINKO's series of waterproof industrial connectors have been successfully applied to the drone capture system.

CNLINKO's series of products for UAV capture system

 

The user's drone catcher system uses radar to locate the position of the "black flying" drone, and then uses electromagnetic signals to interfere with the transmitter to emit interference electromagnetic waves to the positioning target, causing the operator to lose "control" of the drone. CNLINKO's LP20 power connector can provide power connection support for the radar system and electromagnetic signal interference transmitter of the UAV capture system; the radar monitors the distance, size, altitude, speed, angle and other data of the "black flying" target Real-time monitoring provides basis and support for the launch of electromagnetic signal interference transmitters and the capture of aircraft launching and capture. This involves the transmission of the above-mentioned monitoring data signals. CNLINKO's DH24-RJ45 signal connector will be used here.

So what are the advantages of the above-mentioned two industrial connectors used in the UAV capture system in the application scenario of the UAV capture system?


1. High level of waterproof ability

UAV catcher systems are basically vehicle-mounted devices and are exposed to the external environment, so the requirements for waterproofing are very important. The above-mentioned industrial connectors of CNLINKO, in the connected state, can reach the waterproof requirement of IP65 level or above, which can meet the requirements of the drone catcher system for outdoor use. In addition, users can consult and choose IP67 or IP67 or IP68 and other types of products with different waterproof levels, seeking to achieve the optimization of functions and prices;


2. Strong corrosion resistance

Poor outdoor air conditions may cause salt spray corrosion. In addition, there may be corrosive environmental factors in the surrounding geological or hydrological environment where the UAV trap system is located. These may be the failure of the connector or affect the use. Potential threat to performance. The above two CNLINKO industrial connectors are made of PBT corrosion-resistant materials or alloys with good corrosion resistance. The integrated structure design and strict assembly are used in connection with strong salt spray corrosion resistance. Ability

 

3. Vibration resistance and connection reliability

The UAV catcher system is a vehicle-mounted device, and it will be frequently transferred at any time due to the different areas where the task is performed. Vehicle bumps are the norm. In such a situation, the anti-vibration is a rigid requirement. The above two industrial connectors of CNLINKO are made of high-strength shell material and are locked by spring snaps. In the locked connection state, the connection is as solid as a rock, without fear of the impact of high-frequency vibration and other factors, ensuring the reliability of the connection;


4. High and low temperature impact resistance

The main part of the UAV catcher system is mostly outdoors, and there will be tests under the conditions of high temperature in summer and low temperature in winter. These are all factors that must be considered when choosing a connector. The above-mentioned industrial connectors from Lingke can meet a wide range of high and low temperature applications: standard plastic models -25~+85℃, metal models -40~+85℃, which can basically meet the reliability and long-term use under most conditions. Tolerance

 

5. Reliable signal transmission performance

The above-mentioned RJ45 signal connector of CNLINKO adopts imported high-quality contacts and matching high-conductivity wires, which can transmit ultra-fast and no delay; at the same time, it has been processed with anti-electromagnetic interference structure, which effectively guarantees the purity and fidelity of the signal;

 

6. Excellent power conductivity

CNLINKO's LP20 power connector has a contact body made of high-conductivity core material, which has better current and voltage conduction, low impedance, and temperature rise is no longer a concern. At the same time, the contact body is covered with high-quality insulating materials, making the conduction not only efficient, but also more efficient. Safe.

 

 

With the increasing number of consumer drones, problems such as "black flying" have also become a safety hazard. Some drone owners unintentionally or intentionally create "black flights", which will not only infringe on the rights and interests of others, but also cause confusion in aviation management, and may even cause disasters. For example, there have been some unmanned aerial vehicles flying in the air control area before, causing civil aviation aircraft to evade and delay. Therefore, the UAV catcher system, as a powerful means to counter and contain the "black flight", has become an important measure to solve the "black flight" of UAVs by relying on scientific and technological means.
