[Website]-Articles---In

The Drone-Mounted SDR IMSI Catcher offers a cutting-edge solution for efficient mobile device tracking. This advanced system enables law enforcement agencies (LEAs) to collect crucial data, such as IMSI and IMEI, from mobile phones without alerting users or service providers. Its compact design makes it ideal for deployment on drones or UAVs, allowing for overhead data collection in areas that are otherwise inaccessible to ground-based personnel.

The system can be mounted on commercially available drones, with a search radius extending up to 15 kilometers. All collected data is precisely tagged with GPS/BDS coordinates and date/time stamps, ensuring accurate post-mission analysis. The interrogation logs and observed data are remotely exfiltrated, facilitating seamless retrieval for further investigation.

Key Features:
  • The system gathers identifiers like IMSI and IMEI from 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G (NSA) networks, ensuring full compatibility with modern mobile communication standards.
  • Easily mounted on drones such as the DJI M300 RTK, the system eliminates the need for ground access. Its extended 15 km range provides significant operational advantages in both restricted and hard-to-reach locations.
  • All collected data, including IMSI and IMEI information, is precisely tagged with GPS/BDS coordinates and date/time stamps, ensuring accuracy for post-mission analysis and seamless data retrieval.
  • A semi-active algorithm ensures efficient collection of IMSI/IMEI data without disrupting target communication.
  • Beyond IMSI and IMEI, the system also detects TMSI (Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity) and provides details such as the phone model, country of origin, and network provider.
  • The built-in environment monitor assesses the surrounding GSM, UMTS, and LTE networks, corresponding base stations, and neighboring cells, improving situational awareness and operational efficiency.
  • The system automatically adjusts its transceiver modules based on the surrounding RF environment to optimize real-time performance.
  • For greater control, the system offers dynamic capabilities for full identification and selective jamming of target mobile devices, enhancing flexibility during operations.

Drone-mounted systems offer multiple advantages over traditional ground-based interception solutions. Drones can cover vast areas and operate in dangerous or hard-to-reach locations, providing a bird’s-eye view of operations. The altitude and mobility improve signal strength and detection accuracy, while their portability allows LEAs to respond immediately to time-sensitive situations, offering a critical advantage in dynamic scenarios.

Stratign’s Drone-Mounted SDR IMSI Catcher is a game-changer in mobile device surveillance. It combines the tactical flexibility of aerial mobility with advanced interception capabilities, making it an indispensable tool for law enforcement agencies.
