“Chuyka 4.0” is a four-band portable drone detector designed for real-time detection of analog video signals and UAV signal identification. “Chuyka 4.0” is a personal device that operates fully automatically, requires no additional configuration, and helps users respond to threats in advance, enhancing protection.
The device features four antennas, two displays, a video output for connecting to an external display, and a connector for an additional or continuous power source.
Functions of the “Chuyka 4.0” ELINT device
- Analog video system detection. Detects analog video signals across four frequency bands: 1080–2200 MHz, 2860–4500 MHz, 4860–6040 MHz, and 6040–8800 MHz.
- Extended RF spectrum scanning. The additional fourth antenna covering 6040–8800 MHz enables monitoring of a wider frequency range and expands the device’s capability to detect UAV activity.
- External power connectivity. A dedicated input allows connection to an additional or continuous power source, expanding usage scenarios in stationary and mobile conditions.
- High-speed band scanning. A full automatic scanning cycle across all bands takes 4–8 seconds.
- Visual and audio alerts. When activity is detected, the device emits sound and light signals to warn the user of the presence of a UAV.
- Data visualization on displays. The small screen shows signal strength and the number of detected signals, while the large screen can display intercepted analog FPV video, mirroring what the drone operator sees.
Operating principle of the “Chuyka 4.0”
-
- After powering on, the device performs automatic calibration and starts parallel scanning across four frequency bands.
- The device detects active channels, analyzes the presence of analog video signals, and displays the data on the built-in small screen.
- When a corresponding signal is detected, the user can view the intercepted video feed on the main display or an external screen.
The detection range depends on the frequency, video transmitter power, antenna type, presence of obstacles, terrain, and other operating conditions.
