Title:
COMPACT LASER SYSTEM FOR DIRECTED ENERGY APPLICATIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/250763
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system for disabling or destroying an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is provided. The system comprises an anti-UAV system and an anti-UAV computing platform. The anti-UAV system comprises: a plurality of laser devices configured to generate a plurality of laser beams at a plurality of different wavelengths; a coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) combiner configured to combine the plurality of laser beams from the plurality of laser devices into a combined laser beam; and a tracking device configured to detect a UAV. The anti-UAV computing platform is configured to: detect, using the tracking device, an object within range of the tracking device; and based on detecting the object, direct, using the anti-UAV system, the combined laser beam from the CWDM combiner onto the detected object.
