PROMETHEUS

Overview

The laser monitoring system is the unique voice interception tool where access to the target’s location is not available.

The invisible laser beam pointed through a window picks up the vibrations of the surrounding audio, reflected by the surface touched by the laser.

Transmission distances may reach up to 100 meters.

The tripod rotation and camera adjustment is controlled by Wi-Fi.

The adjustment of the laser beam position is carried out manually and assisted by the camera focused on the target.

SPREAD-200

Overview

Digital Spread is a digital and encoded audio monitoring system based on an advanced ultra-low consumption technology.

The spread spectrum transmission technology transmits at 200 mW and features a low power consumption of less than 12 mA, which is 10-15 less compared to similar systems with the same output power but using FSK or GMSK modulations.

Thanks to the low power consumption the spread spectrum transmitter is much less vulnerable to countermeasures such as thermal cameras, compared to standard digital transmitters.

Through the programmer interface the microcontroller inside the transmitter may be programmed with various functions and specifications.

Each device is produced with an ID identification code of 1000 combinations, whereas the correct code enables decryption.

BURST-150

Overview

Intelligence operators rely on the most advanced technologies available to ensure the success of any investigation or surveillance activity. While it’s difﬁcult to properly install audio surveillance devices, it’s more challenging to avoid countermeasures, becoming every day more efficient in detecting bugs.

Audio surveillance devices operate either in real-time audio transmission or in „store and forward“ mode (record, store and transmit at a later time). While transmitting live audio, bugs are detectable due to the radio frequency emitted: even the most advanced digital burst transmitters are visible to spectrum analysers, in form of a continuous micro impulse signature. „Store and forward“ devices have one main drawback, they don’t allow real time listening. Both are subject to fast battery drainage, requiring frequent activities to replace accumulators or large battery packs to cover the desired time window, making concealment harder.

BURST-150 is a breakthrough in audio surveillance. Using the most advanced low power chips and digital transmission technology, it was designed to exceed any previous performance standard.

Live audio stealth surveillance is operated via remote control and pulse packet transmission.

Stand-by mode keeps the bug in a sleeping undetectable state, with ultra-low power consumption.

The „Live Surveillance“ mode enables the digital encoder and transmitter. The innovative transmission mode keeps the bug undetectable while consumption remains very low. A single, ultra-fast transmission pulse of milliseconds duration, transfers half-a-minute live audio, keeping spectrum free for the remaining time. This means that no countermeasure can be taken to detect the bug, as the ratio „transmission time“ v/s „audio length“ is over 1:150.

Thanks to the signal characteristics, the bug’s operative range is far longer than any traditional surveillance device, allowing more convenient positioning for operators and easier covert pursuits of moving targets.

DIONISYS

Overview

The Dionisys Wi-Fi interception systems consists of 3 main modules: the cracking module, interception module and localization module.

The system can work either in passive (monitoring) or active mode. In the monitoring mode, the operator sees all network users (active, connected and not connected) which are present within the system coverage. The operator may create databases of MAC addresses, signal levels and access points of users. The connected users and their amount of traffic is displayed. If the operator logs on a certain channel, the entire traffic of all users or targets may be recorded. During the reconstruction of sessions, all users connected to the target gateway may be monitored (not only users connected through WLAN, but also users connected to the router by cable). Though not only WLAN connected users are monitored but also users connected through wire to the target’s sub-network. All intercepted WLAN traffic, commands and service signals are recorded fur further analysis.

In the active mode, the system allows to manipulate the users’ activities such as sending fake emails, creating disturbances to the subscribers or access point as well as to analyze the intercepted information in advanced mode.

JM-RCIED-3600

Overview

The JM-RCIED-6000 is a wideband jamming system to protect against RCIED (remote controlled improvised explosive devices).

Integrated in a shock-proof and easy transportable pelicase the system was developed for mobile applications.

Transmitters, mobile phones or radios that may be used to remote control a bomb, transmit all with different signal characteristics (modulation, channel size, output power etc.). Therefore it is essential that the jamming signal is created and adapted individually to cover each RF waveform from those different adversarial transmitter signals precisely.

In order to generate multiple jamming signals, each with different waveforms, the JM-RCIED-6000’s hardware is based on several signal generating DDS chips.

The efficiency of a jammer is primarily due to the ability of creating adapted RF waveforms (and not due to the output power of the jammer). Therefore the system’s design and software are developed to create the jamming signal without any limit - any modulation or waveform may be produced.

LIGHTNING

Overview:

The LIGHTNING is a hybrid jamming system consisting of a continuous jamming and a reactive jamming module, developed for vehicle installation. The continuous jamming creates a safe zone in the near-field. The reactive jamming module detects any adversarial signal stronger than the noise level created by the continuous jamming. The detected powerful adversarial signals are precisely blocked at the exact channel bandwidth with the full power of the dedicated amplifier. The reaction (detection & jamming) time of 90 micro-seconds (100 MHz bandwidth) allows to detect and block even the fastest frequency hopping radios available on the market (10’000 hops / second).This allows to block high power transmitters of terrorists (HF, VHF, UHF radios) also very close (e.g. 15-20 meters) to the receiver. The reactive jamming module may reach jamming distances 100 times larger than distances achieved by common jammers (e.g. considering 100 W output power dedicated on a channel (e.g. 1 MHz bandwidth) compared to 100 W output power distributed by sweeping on a frequency wideband of 500 MHz).

The reactive jammer module may optionally be activated with reactive mode (detection & jamming) or work in continuous jamming mode only (without detection).

Application:

RCIED (Remote Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices) RF Jamming System for vehicle installation

Features:

Detection of adversarial RF signal: the jamming system offers a real-time RF detection feature, allowing to detect any adversarial RF signal instantaneously and to jam on the specific detected channel / frequency band (Reactive Jamming).
Four FPGA chips control 24 DDS chips. Each DDS chip controls an individual amplifier resulting in 24 simultaneous jamming signal generations. =>Different jamming signal generations may be combined; covering the same frequency band, this results in high efficiency of jamming in the far-field as well as in the near-field.
DDS / DSP technology: any kind of modulation may be generated.
The jamming signal for each individual frequency bandwidth may be adapted in order to cover in an efficient way the adversarial signal => the signal for each frequency band will be generated with adapted signal parameters:

Speed of sweeping, carrier step size, power, channel raster and modulation.

Each communication medium (potential threat) does have specific RF characteristics and waveforms. Therefore the jamming signal is generated in each bandwidth with adapted characteristics covering each individual threat efficiently.
Tone and DTMF code transmission combat VHF/UHF radios efficiently at large distances.
Programmable filters offer precise and selectable channels for friendly communication.
LIGHTNING was demonstrated at the NATO trial in Belcoast in the class of RCIED Jamming Systems and achieved the best results (jamming distances).

DroneRANGER

Overview:

DroneRANGER was developed to detect and defeat any kind of unmanned aerial vehicle, from micro-drones to large UAVs. DroneRANGER in combination with the Long Range Radar System is applied to protect critical infrastructures where drones need to be detected at large distances. Micro-drones are typically detected within a distance of 2 to 4 km.

The defence system consists of a jamming system blocking radio frequencies used to remote control drones as well as blocking the frequency bands of Global Satellite Navigation System allowing drones to fly by auto-pilot.

Depending the application, protection level and geographical location, the jamming system is adapted regarding frequency band coverage and output power.

DroneRANGER is a modular system that may be used for detection or defence of drones independently.

Applied as a full system (combination of detection and defence), the radio frequency jamming may occur automatically upon drone detection or through manual assistance by a supervisor.

The frequency jamming may occur through directional or omnidirectional antennas, as well as in combination for a near- and far-field coverage.
