Does DJI send regular Wifi packet? #10

Closed XBeg9 closed 1 year ago

Hi,

Does it send regular wifi packets, like IEEE 802.11 ?

What I mean is, if it's just a standard 802.11 frames, then there could be a much cheaper option to catch it

It depends, legacy DJI drones (e.g. Mavic Air 1) used WiFi as far as we know. The DJI drones which are using OcuSync transmit the DroneID packets as we described in the paper. But current DJI drones may also use WiFi and Bluetooth again to transmit these kind of data to comply with the new FAA regulations (see FAA UAS Remote Identification)
