The drone jammers works by directing radio energy into the drones, breaking the remote control link between the drone and the operator. Jammers operate in common industrial, scientific, and medical frequency bands (ISM). 2.4 GHz is part of the ISM band and is one of the most common drone control frequencies.
Drone interceptors can also interrupt GPS signals, which is an important feature because self-guided drones depend on satellite navigation guides. Once stuck, the drone can be oriented into place. The signal blocking device will constitute the future battlefield. Some civilian drone research and development companies say regulations regarding the use of drones (and regulations for drones) are still under control. For example, in countries such as the United States and Australia, drones are considered private property and can only be blocked by government agencies.
Signal jammers can manufacture and provide anti-drug solutions for governments and a range of security and private companies based on blocking, detection and identification. On the Syrian battlefield, the Ministry of Defense declined to say whether the jammer caused the drone to crash, for security reasons. "The U.S. Army maintains adequate countermeasures and protections to ensure the safety of our manned and unmanned aircraft, our forces, and the missions they support," said Pentagon spokesman Eric Pahon.
