A secure communication system has been created for Russian micro-drones.
Russian combat micro-Robots and miniature UAVs of a new generation (size - no more than a few tens of centimeters) will be equipped with a domestic digital communication and video transmission system "Reset", the newspaper reports. News.
According to the newspaper, with a mass of only 30 g, it allows not only to control drone, but also receive a secure high-definition video signal at a distance of up to 1 km. The novelty has already been tested in Syria as part of the Scarab sapper system.
The system "Reset" is recognized as suitable for equipping military miniature robotic systems, an experimental batch is already in production, the military department said.
“Reset” is a microcircuit weighing less than 30 g. At the same time, the product provides a fully-fledged, high-bandwidth radio channel. The drone operator receives a picture in real time in Full HD format. In the city, "Reset" provides transmission over a distance of 400 m. In the forest, this figure rises to 1 km, "the material says.
It is noted that the signal of the system can not be silenced by means of EW or hacked. A high level of security is achieved "thanks to a special mode of information transmission (the signal is encrypted using a frequency range change algorithm) and a change in the antenna pattern."
According to him, 30-gram communication device, which has a microprocessor that performs encryption, is a serious scientific achievement.

Create a miniature secure channel for drones - a real engineering breakthrough. Now the troops are using more and more small drones. Cheapness makes it possible to use them at the lower tactical level, at the level of a platoon and a company. But placing strong encryption tools on them has always been a problem,
Anton Lavrov, an independent military expert, told the newspaper.According to him, 30-gram communication device, which has a microprocessor that performs encryption, is a serious scientific achievement.
A secure information channel is the main difference between a military drone and a civilian. Even the smallest army drones must have a reliable connection, then it will not be able to overhear or intercept the enemy. This will allow the device to operate in the conditions of electronic countermeasures,
added an expert.
