Fractal Antenna Systems has introduced JERECHO, an innovative acoustic array platform that transforms sound into a tool for detecting and countering drones and related electronic threats. The system uses controlled acoustic energy to identify, disrupt, or neutralize unmanned platforms, providing a flexible, low-collateral alternative to conventional counter-UAS measures.JERECHO’s design incorporates fractal-based array technology, allowing operators to manipulate how sound propagates through the atmosphere. This enables precision steering and shaping of acoustic output for targeted disruption without broad-area effects. The approach offers new options for militaries seeking non-kinetic and scalable methods to protect critical assets from hostile drones.The platform’s ability to modulate acoustic signals may allow it to interfere with drone sensors, communications, or onboard electronics, giving users an additional layer of defense within an integrated counter-UAS ecosystem.
