ESG’s state-of-the-art command and control system TARANIS® connects all subsystems, sensors and effectors and facilitates their interaction and coordination, even in a dispersed or remote setup. The links can be established via LAN, LTE or other radio services. The C2 system enables crisis centers and mobile mission forces to assess, share and communicate this information securely and in real-time.

system
R&S®ARDRONIS focuses on the remote control radio link of commercial drones. The subsystem can detect and identify the drone and take bearings on the remote controller even before the drones take off. Its ability to distinguish the remote control signals from other emissions within the same frequency band makes it highly reliable. R&S®ARDRONIS alerts security personnel early on so they can respond to the potential threat in a timely manner.
The Diehl HPEMcounterUAS source directly impacts the semiconductors of the control electronics inside commercial drones by means of electromagnetic pulses. Whether flying autonomously or radio-controlled, the drone becomes inoperable upon impact of HPEM pulses. If navigation methods like inertial navigation, infrared homing, optical flow, home on jam, simultaneous localization and mapping are used, jammers cannot affect the drone. In such cases, the HPEM can affect the control electronics, regardless of the control method, and immediately disable the drone.
The system’s central command and control system is based on ESG’s military artillery C۶system for the German army, which provides interoperability with national and international standards.
Integrated management of all connected sensors and effectors and other TARANIS® instances, such as operating own forces (Blue Force Tracking).
All data collected from detected drones and their remote controls is recorded, providing operators with sophisticated shared situation awareness close to real time.
Geospatial data types are supported (satellite imagery, aerial images, digital topographic maps, elevation data) as well as geo-functionality such as relief, profile, line of sight and radio coverage provided for those that require it.
