Traficom, the Finnish transport and communications agency, said recently that GPS signal interference over the Baltic Sea is "most likely" a byproduct of Russia's anti-drone operations. cell phone jammerThe statement pointed out that Russia's GPS interference activities have become more frequent since Ukraine stepped up drone attacks on key Russian energy facilities in early 2024.signal jammer

　　GPS signal interference and Finland's security response

　　Finland's Traficom explained in a press release: "The aviation interference phenomenon currently observed is likely due to defensive measures taken by Russia to protect itself." This interference is aimed at preventing drones based on GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) or mobile network frequency control from attacking facilities in Russia.GPS jammer These measures also caused GPS signals to be unstable over the Baltic countries.Wifi jammer

　　Despite the interference of GPS signals, Traficom said that flights in Finland are still safe. This safety is due to the fact that airlines use inertial navigation systems and ground navigation systems as alternatives. drone jammerTraficom said that although GPS signals are the main basis for aviation navigation, the backup navigation system can ensure flight safety.
