EDEX 2023: Romanian company BlueSpace Technology displays BS-JDP02 drone jamming system.

At the EDEX 2023 exhibition, BlueSpace Technology, a Romanian defense company, introduces the BS-JDP02, an iteration of the BS-JDP01, identified as the first Romanian drone jamming system. The BS-JDP01 is a portable system designed to disrupt unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) by interfering with the primary signals used by commercial UAV systems.

The BS-JDP02 builds upon the features of its predecessor and exhibits a range of technical specifications for electronic warfare purposes. The system operates in specific frequency bands, covering GPS-L1, L2, and L5, as well as WiFi-2.4GHz and WiFi-5.8GHz. The bands include L1 (1559-1610MHz), L5 (1164-1300MHz), V (5725-5850MHz), and W (2400-2483MHz).

Key features of the BS-JDP02 include a scope with a 4X zoom factor and a -30dB side lobe level. The antenna is of the double-polarization type, supporting both vertical and horizontal orientations. Its working principle involves disrupting signals to allow operator control, automatic navigation based on GNSS signals, and information transmission.

Regarding operational capabilities, the BS-JDP02 claims a maximum combat distance of up to 2,000 m, subject to the effective positioning ratio (Rpe) being smaller or equal to 2 for primary commercial UAVs. The system boasts a 3-second cold start time and is powered by 2 x Li-Ion 28Vdc batteries, providing a standby time of 70 minutes across all frequency ranges and a continuous service life of 12 hours.

The charger power supply supports 230Vac/50HZ and 12Vdc (cigarette lighter socket), contributing to recharging flexibility. The effective operating angle spans approximately 35 degrees, enhancing the system's adaptability in various operational scenarios.

Physically, the BS-JDP02 measures 1075x300x240 mm and weighs 6.9 kg in the operating position. Operating conditions range from -15°C to +50°C, with weather protection meeting IP 65 standards. Storage conditions extend from -25°C to +55°C, with an optional rigid box type Peli cover for added protection.

The equipment, presented in khaki/black color, includes a transport bag with a black strap for mobility. Compliance with standards such as SR EN 55032:2015, SR EN 55035:2017, and MIL-STD-461G:2015 positions the BS-JDP02 within recognized benchmarks for electronic emissions.

An additional note underscores the system's dependence on the effective positioning ratio (Rpe) between the combat system and the UAV for disrupting Wi-Fi signals. This detail emphasizes the importance of strategic deployment for optimal performance.
