Program aims to deliver breakthrough solution to address critical technology needs to combat severe wideband jamming scenarios
Once developed, the new technology would be integrated into Mobilicom’s Immunity, Cybersecurity & Encryption (ICE) software suite embedded on its SkyHopper datalinks, which were recently added to the U.S. Department of Defense’s Blue UAS Framework
Palo Alto, California, March 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mobilicom Limited (Nasdaq: MOB), a provider of cybersecurity and robust solutions for drones and robotics, today announced it has been chosen and won a $390,000 R&D innovation program to develop Enhanced Electronic Warfare communications systems that protect uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) against advanced wideband jamming. Anti-jamming technology is a critically important unmet need as reflected in the Middle East and Ukraine conflicts where drones are widely used in the battlefield and electronic warfare can damage mission success.
As part of the R&D program, Mobilicom is collaborating with a leading research university to develop and implement advanced anti-jamming methods, addressing challenges of increasing prevalence, including jamming scenarios caused by spectrum congestion in environments saturated with signals and by deliberate interference from adversaries.
Upon full development, the new innovation would be offered as an upgrade to further fortify the Company’s ICE software suite when embedded on its SkyHopper cognitive software defined radio (SDR) datalinks family of products. SkyHopper is one of Mobilicom’s top-selling products and a critical system in UAVs manufactured by the world’s leading defense contractors. SkyHopper products were recently added to the U.S. Defense Innovation Unit’s (DIU) highly selective Blue UAS Framework, a short list of approved products for procurement for U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) programs.
“The need for resilient anti-jamming solutions is crucial to ensuring real-time mission continuity at minimal cost, without requiring significant modifications to existing UAVs and robotics,” stated Mobilicom VP of R&D and Co-Founder Yossi Segal. “We believe this innovation will position Mobilicom and our ICE electronic warfare datalink cybersecurity at the cutting edge of technology.”
Radio signal jamming has evolved significantly in recent years. Today, advanced jamming systems are available at low cost in the civilian market, while the military sector continues to see a growing variety of sophisticated jammers. Such jammers can be utilized for various purposes:
Military – Disrupting operational activities, hijacking sensitive military equipment by adversaries, affecting supply lines and rescue operations, etc.
Commercial – Disrupting missions and causing their failure, data theft, cargo theft, reputational damage, etc.
Security and law enforcement – Criminals evading surveillance, activists avoiding detection, etc.
