Broadcast control of radar surveillance systems for unexpected drones

Abstract

Summary In this paper, we propose a new antidrone surveillance system with multiple vehicles and bistatic radars whose antennas are mounted in each vehicle. The proposed system is based on the broadcast control technique recently proposed. We show that our method provides the optimal formation in terms of the received signal level of echoes from the drone intruders, without the information about the relation among the signal level, the locations of vehicles, and the locations of intruders. The proposed system is demonstrated by numerical simulation.
