What are the restraints in the anti-drone market?

High research and development costs to develop anti-drone systems, development of cost-effective anti-drone systems and collateral damage during hard killing of rogue drones are some of the restraints face by the anti-drone market.

Anti-drone Market Dynamics

Driver: Growing use of drones to counter terrorism and prevent illicit activities

According to a US government counter-terrorism advisor, commercially available drones can be used by terrorists to attack passenger planes. Several incidents have proven that terrorists use UAVs and drones for attacks. For instance, German law enforcement personnel raided militants and right-wing extremists believed to be plotting drone attacks, according to a presentation at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) summit. Drones have widened the reach of terrorists at different locations. In October 2016, ISIS used a drone loaded with explosives to attack Kurdish and French positions in northern Peshmerga. The attack killed two Kurdish fighters and wounded two French special operations forces. As a result, it has become imperative for the military and defense, government, and homeland security sectors to deploy technologically advanced anti-drone systems. They can detect and disrupt any drone accurately, ensure protection against suspicious or hostile drones, and prevent terrorist attacks and unlawful activities.

Restraint: Public safety concerns

Commercial drones have privacy and safety concerns and face regulatory and other issues, such as the requirement for highly skilled amateur pilots to prevent drone accidents. Globally, incidents with small UAVs have revealed a security gap in public safety.

A clash between a drone and an anti-UAV defense system can cause damage to the properties and lives of civilians. A counter-UAV system can detect UAVs, but it has no control over where these UAVs would crash, creating public safety concerns. This has resulted in the enforcement of stringent anti-drone regulations by governments worldwide. In most countries, jamming radio signals often requires permission and a host of approvals and licenses before deploying related equipment. For instance, in the UK, one needs to have authority under the Wireless Telegraphy Act to start broadcasting any signal—even the one intended to bring down a fleet of unauthorized drones.

Opportunity: Increasing private investments in drone industry

The rise in the use of drones is expected to offer growth opportunities for various stakeholders of the anti-drone ecosystem, such as anti-drone software providers, anti-drone manufacturers, anti-drone service providers, and anti-drone infrastructure providers.

The drone market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years owing to the considerable investments in drone technologies across the globe. Currently, drones are equipped with high-end technologies, advanced components, engineered lightweight materials, software, and hardware, which have low payload capacity, inaccurate navigation, and endurance. Therefore, drone software companies are focusing on developing cost-effective technologies enabling drones to navigate accurately. The drone industry has been witnessing significant investments from private companies, venture capitalists, and financial institutions over the past few years. According to an article published by Droneii.com, the industry witnessed an investment of USD 7 billion in 2021, a significant rise compared with USD 2.4 billion in 2020. The investment share of venture capitalists accounted for USD 4 billion in 2021. Several startups, such as DroneBase and Measure, have received funding from venture capitalists to adopt a complete drone software platform.

Challenge: Development of effective anti-drone systems and components for detection applications

Developing and integrating an effective anti-drone system for detection and interdiction applications has been challenging for manufacturers and integrators. Every detection system has some drawbacks.

Electromagnetic interference can degrade the detection capabilities of RF sensors. In urban environments, there are many potential sources of such interference, including communication antennae, two-way radios, telemetry systems, and even power lines and LED lights. Camera systems might interpret a drone as a bird or an airplane and struggle in harsh weather conditions with low visibility. Radar systems may struggle to pick out small drones and UAS flying very close to the ground. Specific RF sensors, including some systems marketed as “passive,” may likewise emit RF signals that could interfere with other communications, making them potentially dangerous to deploy in some environments.
