3. Limited Range and Coverage Gaps

Most anti-drone systems struggle greatly to cover vast areas completely. Usually depending on the type of technology and climatic conditions, the effective detection and interdiction range ranges from 1 to 5 km. Sophisticated drone operators can take advantage of possible security flaws this restriction generates. Moreover, especially at low altitudes, the curvature of the Earth and topographical characteristics might generate dead zones where drones might operate unnoticed.
4. Power Consumption and Operational Endurance

Effective operation of anti-drone systems—especially active countermeasure systems—requires significant power. Often limited operating lifetime and requiring regular maintenance intervals, this high energy demand results from With regard to battery life and power management, mobile devices present further difficulties that can lead to windows of vulnerability during power cycling or recharge times. Furthermore less practicable for quick deployment or long-term autonomous operation are these devices due to their power needs.
