Powerful 80W Drone Jamming Module 720-1020 MHz GaN

The 80W Drone Jamming Module covers the 720-1020 MHz band with a clean 80-watt output, making it a workhorse for sub-1 GHz counter-UAS operations. Built on a gallium nitride (GaN) architecture and delivered as an integrated analog jamming unit, it packs an internal high-speed sweep source, absorptive VSWR protection, and simple TTL control into a 168.5 × 84.5 × 23 mm, 0.55 kg chassis. No external exciter needed—just feed 24-29 V DC and flip the TTL line.

Why Sub-1 GHz Still Dominates Drone Control

Many commercial and industrial drones still rely on 800-900 MHz for long-range command and telemetry. By blanketing 720-1020 MHz with 80 watts, the 80W Drone Jamming Module forces quick failsafe activation across that whole band. It pairs naturally with higher-frequency modules to build layered defense arcs. ( read about sub-GHz drone links at Microwave Journal.)

80W Drone Jamming Module: Core Specifications

The module runs from a 24-29 V DC bus and draws up to 10 A at full power, delivering a nominal 80 W into a 50-ohm load. Efficiency sits at ≥40%, meaning less heat to manage and longer run times on battery. An SMA female connector serves the RF output, and VSWR is kept ≤2.0:1. The built-in high-speed sweep source covers the entire 720-1020 MHz window without gaps, creating a continuous jamming envelope.

Built-in Sweep Source and VSWR Protection

Unlike standalone power amplifiers, this 80W Drone Jamming Module is a complete analog jammer. The internal high-speed sweep source eliminates external synthesizers, while the integrated absorptive VSWR protection guards the output stage against antenna mismatch or accidental open-load conditions. If the antenna VSWR spikes, the protection circuit absorbs reflected energy rather than letting it damage the GaN transistor.

Simple Control, High Efficiency

A single TTL line handles on/off switching: apply +5 V or leave the pin floating to enable jamming; pull it to ground to shut down. This makes the 80W Drone Jamming Module easy to sequence with detection sensors or microcontrollers. With ≥40% power-added efficiency, the module generates less waste heat than comparable LDMOS designs, shrinking the required heatsink and improving reliability during extended missions.

Field-Ready Integration

Weighing 0.55 kg and measuring just 168.5 × 84.5 × 23 mm, the module fits into man-portable kits, vehicle-mounted arrays, and fixed-site cabinets. The operating temperature spans -20 to +65 °C, so it handles desert heat and cold-weather deployments equally well. 

GaN Reliability in a Compact Form

GaN-on-SiC technology enables this 80 W output from a slim form factor. Wide bandgap operation means the module can withstand high VSWR events without immediate degradation, and the ≥40% efficiency reduces thermal stress. Whether you are protecting a convoy or hardening a critical site, the 80W Drone Jamming Module delivers brute-force interference with minimal infrastructure.
