AVGARDE DeepSense Technology

An integrated approach to AI-driven aerial object sensing and situational awareness

The DeepSense™ platform is leveraging a proprietary deep neural model for micro-doppler signature classification and analysis, alongside a unique parallel algorithm for low latency range-doppler mapping. With an integrated approach, the platform offers actionable data, decisioning tools and counter-measures for Situational Awareness and Risk Mitigation in Low-Altitude Airspace (LAA) in context of drones, UAVs, birds and other aerial objects.

    • Deep neural AI model enhances detection range by 30% when compared to conventional systems

    • Auto-classification of aerial targets allows effective management of Low Altitude Airspace (LAA)

    • Accurate detection using clutter reduction techniques, alongside SVM based clutter cancellation to improve target detection by 60%

    • Motion artifact cancellation algorithm improves classification of radar signatures

    • High throughput waveform streaming through an FPGA reduces time-to-compute by 35%

    • Software Defined Radio (SDR) architecture for scalability, modularity and reconfigurability

    • Operating ease with user friendly software and user interface, alongside effective compatibility with most commercial drones/UAVs

Markets

AIRCRAFT SAFETY & AIRPORT OPERATORS

  • Ensuring safety of aircrafts and the airport airspace is of critical importance to all airport operators. With increased usage of drones, the low-altitude airspace is converging with the airspace of conventional aviation, and stakeholders are rethinking the traditional concept of air traffic control to mitigate risks from drones in restricted areas.

    DroneSafe Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) is a proven solution for airport airspace monitoring and management in many beneficial ways, including:

    • 360 degree aerial situational awareness from drones, UAVs and aerial objects

    • Enhanced safety for aircraft, passengers and airport assets

    • Reduced revenue losses from airport shutdowns due to drone intrusions

    Similarly, BirdsEye Bird Detection and Monitoring Radar (BDMR) can be a pre-emptive tool for airport operations to prevent Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH), and for wind energy farms to minimize casualties of birds and avian migrations.

UAV TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT

  • Effective airspace management of unmanned traffic will be critical to the success of rapid expansion of commercial drone operations and adoption of alternative aerial mobility. Globally, UTM frameworks are being developed in various countries and its being adopted gradually by drone fleet operators, UTM integrators and logistics networks.

    The DeepSense platform has developed the core technology to address the UTM aspects the drone airspace in a number of ways, including:

    • Comprehensive platform approach combining AI/ML, sensor fusion and other emerging technologies

    • Drone airspace intelligence, including situational awareness, topographical data services drone fleet way pints and optimal path services

    • Precise real-time tracking of large number of drones for airspace safety and security

MILITARY & SECURITY AGENCIES

  • Perimeter defence and securing strategic assets is of utmost importance to the military and security agencies. With the advent of drones, the perimeter defence aspect has extrapolated into the airspace. Globally, the military and security agencies were amongst the first to map out the risks/threats from drones, and were early responders to address such complex problems from varied perspectives of the army, air force, navy, border and homeland security.

    DroneSafe Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) is fully comprehensive solution to rogue drones in military environments by addressing the core problems in various ways, including:

    • Intelligently detect, classify, mitigate and report aerial risks/threats from drones, with 360 degree coverage, 24/7 scan and tracking

    • Exceptional range resolution and micro target detection, along with jamming of GNSS, WiFi and Telemetry bands

    • AI-based classification of different targets can help in effectively implementing intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) strategies

    Similarly, DIWAR All-Band Drone Jammer is a compact and low-power solution for perimeter defence as it can effectively neutralize and jam FHSS drones, which can be ideal for drone jamming and perimeter defence applications.

CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION

  • With over 70% of global critical infrastructure being unprotected from aerial risks, it is evident that most perimeter intrusion detection systems (PIDS) do not cover the low-altitude airspace or its perimeter. This security gap needs to be addressed in the era of drones, and there is increasing awareness amongst critical infra decision makers in public utilities, oil, gas & energy assets, strategic assets, high-value industries, sensitive sites and other locations.

    DroneSafe Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) and DIWAR All-Band Drone Jammer is an effective solution for the stakeholders in many ways, including:

    • Enforce ‘no drone zones’ and effectively implement multi-layered perimeter intrusion detection systems (PIDS)

    • Minimize interruptions to site operations resulting from drone incursions and incidents

    • Prevention of drone related issues through drone countermeasures and by infusing operator apprehension
