It is shown that focusing systems built on the basis of a system of radio receivers spaced apart in space and simulating the operation of a lens can be used to ensure the protection of information during data transmission in the direct radio visibility zone. The synthesis of the lens equivalent in this case is carried out by using a system of phase shifters that change the phase of the oscillations arriving at each of the receivers, so that the receiving system is tuned to a radio wave source located at a specific point in space. In this case, information protection is provided according to the “friend or foe” principle, and any commands coming from other areas of space, except for the point where the authorized operator is located, are ignored. The advantage of this approach is the ability to partially or completely abandon the use of cryptographic methods. It is shown that the proposed approach is of considerable interest for ensuring the stable operation of groups of unmanned aerial vehicles from the point of view of the possibility of intercepting control using electronic warfare methods.
