Security Expo 2024- Facing new developments in low-altitude safety, experts advise on exploring new air-ground networks

On October 27, during the 2024 China International Public Safety Products Expo held in Beijing, Professor Zhang Hongke, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a professor at the School of Electronic Information Engineering at Beijing Jiaotong University, emphasized the critical role of highly secure and reliable network communications in ensuring the safety of low-altitude aircraft and the air traffic management system.

“The integration of a new type of internet is essential for the safety of low-altitude operations and the development of the low-altitude economy,” Professor Zhang stated. He underscored the importance of continuous technological innovation to explore new ground-air networks that can support the growth of the low-altitude economy.

The expo, themed “Smart World, All-Domain Security,” showcased the latest technological achievements, cutting-edge products, and innovative solutions in the security sector. As the low-altitude economy rapidly advances, the orderly and safe operation of countless drones has garnered significant attention. Experts at the conference agreed that establishing low-altitude safety infrastructure is paramount.

At the Low-Altitude Safety Industry Development Conference and the Second China Security Drone System Safety Summit, scholars, government representatives, and industry leaders engaged in discussions about the new challenges and opportunities facing low-altitude safety.

The TDOA team, which has extensive experience in the low-altitude security field, shared their practical insights. They introduced an urban-level grid-based low-altitude safety solution leveraging their proprietary “TDOA Grid-Based Drone Monitoring and Positioning Technology.” This solution utilizes multiple TDOA devices to form a flexible network of grid units, creating a low-altitude perception network that covers vast urban areas. This allows for precise control and management of drones, ensuring the safe and orderly use of low-altitude airspace.

Additionally, it was announced that the TDOA team’s “Urban-Level Grid-Based Drone Management Network Solution” received the “2024 Outstanding Solution Award” at the expo and has already been implemented in practice.
