American Marconi Wireless News - Peraso 60 GHz mmWave Technology Selected for Next-Generation Drone Identification System for Military Applications

SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / March 6, 2026 / Peraso Inc. (NASDAQ:PRSO) ("Peraso") today announced that its 60 GHz millimeter-wave (mmWave) semiconductor technology has been selected by InTACT, an Israeli defense contractor, for use in a new drone Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) system designed to operate in highly contested electronic warfare environments.

As modern battlefields become increasingly saturated with unmanned systems, the ability to quickly and reliably identify friendly drones has become a critical operational requirement for military forces. InTACT's IFF system enables secure identification between drones and ground forces, allowing counter-drone systems and battlefield operators to determine whether aerial platforms are friendly or hostile.

At the core of the system, Peraso's 60 GHz beamforming wireless transceivers provide the communications backbone for highly directional, low-power links that reduce the likelihood of detection or interception, making them well suited for dense electronic warfare environments.

"With the rapid proliferation of drones on the battlefield, secure identification systems are becoming essential to prevent friendly-fire incidents and enable safe coordination between unmanned and manned forces," said Ron Glibbery, CEO of Peraso. "Our 60 GHz mmWave technology is designed to provide a secure, directional communications channel ideally suited for these environments, enabling advanced systems such as the IFF platform developed by InTACT."

Modern military operations increasingly rely on large numbers of drones performing reconnaissance, strike, logistics, and electronic warfare missions, creating what military planners often describe as a "cluttered sky." In such environments, the ability to rapidly distinguish between friendly and hostile systems is essential for both force protection and operational effectiveness.

The IFF system addresses this challenge by enabling mutual authentication between drones and ground forces, providing real-time identification capabilities that support infantry units, command systems, and counter-UAS defenses. The platform is designed to operate reliably in contested electromagnetic environments, where traditional radio communications can be easily detected or jammed.

"In modern warfare, identification systems must be secure, resilient, and extremely difficult for adversaries to detect or disrupt," said Meir Rapaport, CEO of InTACT. "By leveraging Peraso's advanced 60 GHz mmWave technology, we have been able to develop a stealthy and robust identification solution designed specifically for drone-dense battlefields."

InTACT's IFF solution, powered by Peraso's mmWave semiconductor chips, offers several key advantages for tactical communications systems, including:

• Highly directional beamforming communications

• Low probability of detection and interception

• Low power consumption for battery-operated platforms

• Compact integration for drones and soldier-borne systems

Peraso Inc. and InTACT have collaborated for more than two years to develop the technology used to deploy tactical drone identification applications. To learn more about Peraso's mmWave solutions, please visit www.perasoinc.com.
