Countering unauthorized drone activities : an analysis of drone jamming techniques, challenges, and ethical implications

Abstract

As the use of drones grows across commercial, recreational, and security sectors, the need for effective countermeasures against unauthorized drones has intensified. This paper investigates drone jamming techniques and explores their effectiveness, legal challenges, and ethical considerations. Key findings indicate that while GPS and RF jamming are effective, they face limitations due to advancements in drone navigation technology. Furthermore, legal and ethical issues constrain the widespread use of jamming, particularly with privacy and civil liberties. The paper calls for multi-layered jamming approaches and unified global regulations to ensure responsible drone jam-ming deployment.
