Empower RF Modules for Counter UAS

Empower RF offers a full line of basic function and smart function module level building blocks for customers who integrate power amplifiers into their C-UAS systems.

Empower RF is highly experienced in the design and development of high power amplifier modules and systems for C-UAS and EW.

UAS represent a rapidly growing, low-cost, high-reward surveillance and attack threat to military and civilian personnel and infrastructure. Countering UAS (C-UAS) consists of three subsystems: detecting, identifying, and defeating the UAS drone threat. Defeating the drone(s) requires either a kinetic response, directed energy response or an electromagnetic response.

Why Choose Empower RF?

Empower RF Systems amplifiers are used in the defeat role of drone threats using electromagnetic response:

  • Jamming the communications links between operator and the aircraft
  • Jamming its GPS link
  • Spoofing/take over solution

Empower supplies RF and microwave amplifiers for many deployed C-UAS and C-sUAS systems:

  • Dismounted/Handheld Systems
  • Fixed/Semi-Fixed Systems
  • Mounted/Mobile Systems
