DroneConnect Ground (DCG)

Traffic receiving station for airspace monitoring - real-time detection of aircraft via LTE

Drone Connect Ground (DCG890 for short) is an omni-directional ground station that reliably detects manned and unmanned aircraft by receiving ADS-B, FLARM and Direct Remote-ID. The recorded data is transmitted to the air situation display in real time via LTE - as is the ground station's own position. Thanks to IP67 certification, it is dustproof and waterproof, ideal for use in demanding conditions.

Advantages

  • Weatherproof & weather resistant antenna for large area airspace monitoring.
  • Receives ADS-B signals from surrounding air traffic and FLARM signals from gliders, helicopters and motorized aircraft
  • Captures Direct Remote ID signals from drones
  • Versatile use thanks to various mounting options (stationary and mobile)
  • Certified to protection class IP67
  • Operational around the clock (24/7)

Intended use

The DroneConnect Ground (DCG) antenna serves as a powerful traffic receiving station for recording air traffic data. It receives ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast) and FLARM (Flight Alarm) signals from air traffic participants such as gliders, helicopters and motorized aircraft as well as DRI (Direct Remote ID) signals from drones. This data is transmitted via LTE to the Droniq UTM (UAS Traffic Management) system, where it is combined with other data sources.

Web access to TraX from Droniq provides the pilot with a comprehensive overview of all available traffic data, optimizing the air situation display for UAS operations. The compact and modular design of the antenna and its IP67 certification enable flexible use at different locations. With a wide range of accessories, it can be used both mobile and stationary.

Product Features

  • ADS-B & FLARM receiver

    The station receives ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast) signals from surrounding air traffic and FLARM (Flight Alarm) signals from gliders, helicopters and motorized aircraft

  • LTE connectivity

    ADS-B and FLARM signals are sent via LTE to Droniq's drone traffic management system (UTM), where they are fused with other data sources.

  • Captures Direct Remote ID

    The DroneConnect Ground ground station captures Direct Remote ID signals from surrounding drones.

  • UTM integration

    The DroneConnect Ground Station transmits its current position to the Droniq UTM, making it visible to others. By accessing the UTM system, drone pilots receive a combined view of all available traffic data. This enables a visualization of the air situation for the remote pilot.

  • Self-sufficient use around the clock

    Thanks to its slim design and IP67 certification, the traffic reception station can be permanently installed at various locations and operated around the clock (24/7).
