Abstract

Drones are becoming more and more available to the general public for leisure activities and exploited in commercial applications, this boom in drone use has contributed to the emergence of new threats in security applications. Because of their great agility and small size, UAV can be used for numerous missions and are very challenging to detect. Radar technology with its all-weather capability can play an important role in detecting UAV-based threats and in protecting critical assets, but standard radar is ill-prepared for UAV detection: UAVs are low-velocity aircraft with a very weak radar. A radar simulation is discussed and preliminary results are presented. In general, an X-band radar with electronic scanning capability can contribute to a reliable and affordable solution for detecting UAV threats. Radar could be the technology of choice for detecting the drone, signature.
