Aerobits explores its innovative DRS-1 Dual-Band Receiver Station,the GS2L Ground Station,and the idME PRO advanced Remote ID device,highlighting their functionalities and uses.
Recently, Aerobits unveiled the DRS-1 Dual-Band Receiver Station, aimed at improving airspace monitoring and the integration of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).
DRS-1 Dual-Band Receiver Station.
The DRS-1 is engineered for high-performance airspace surveillance, making it ideal for tracking traffic at airports, managing air traffic systems, and overseeing local airfields. This receiver station marks a pivotal enhancement in Aerobits’ ground infrastructure offerings, which are essential for the evolution of UTM and U-Space frameworks.
Another noteworthy product is the GS2L ground Station, a multifunctional device that acts as a robust Remote ID ground receiver, featuring:
- Reception capabilities for ADS-B/FLARM/UAT or RID
- power over Ethernet (PoE) support
- Durable, weather-resistant construction
- User-pleasant installation and setup, making it indispensable for airspace oversight and UAV operations
GS2L Ground Station.
The GS2L can be configured in various ways; as an example, it can operate as an omnidirectional receiver for ADS-B/FLARM, integrated with BLE/Wi-Fi Remote ID capabilities. This combination enables it to detect and identify a wide range of aircraft, including drones equipped with Remote ID transmitters.
A standout feature of the GS2L is its onboard multi-constellation GNSS sensor, which ensures extraordinary positional accuracy. This capability is vital for the precise tracking and localization of UAVs within the monitored airspace.
Additionally, Aerobits offers Remote ID transmitters like the idME series. The idME PRO is a elegant RID device tailored for UAVs, boasting dual-technology broadcasting capabilities that enhance its versatility for drone identification and tracking.
The idME PRO has received approval from both the FAA and EASA, allowing drone operators to utilize it legally in the United States and the European Union.

The DRS and GS2L Remote ID ground receivers are essential for bolstering airspace safety and security. These systems can effectively detect and process Remote ID signals from UAVs equipped with Aerobits’ idME series modules or other compatible modules, which transmit identification and location data via BLE and Wi-Fi technologies.
Aerobits routinely conducts range tests on their products. During trials using the idME PRO transmitter and GS2L ground station, they achieved an remarkable range of nearly 16 kilometers. This remarkable outcome is notably noteworthy given that it relies solely on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology.
The GS2L’s capability to receive and process these signals makes it an invaluable asset for airspace management and monitoring. Aerobits’ DRS and GS2L solutions signify a major leap forward in ground-based Remote ID receiver technology.
By providing subsystems for UAV integration and focusing on air traffic control systems for both manned and unmanned aircraft, Aerobits is establishing itself as a pivotal player in the advancement of U-Space solutions. Their offerings, including the latest DRS-1 and idME PRO, are crafted to overcome existing challenges in UAV autonomy and facilitate the transition to more autonomous operations. With the DRS-1 receiving station and idME PRO transmitter, customers can establish a comprehensive infrastructure for monitoring and managing their drone fleet’s airspace.
