Abstract:Detection, classification, and line-of-sight range estimation of drones are vital for security, safety, and privacy reasons. Representation of the audio emissions of drones in a Fourier-Bessel (FB) series expansion is proposed for the identification of a drone and/or the prediction of its range from an observation point. A deep learning network employing the FB series coefficients as the preprocessed input has been shown to classify accurately each of seven drones flying in a controlled environment in about 84… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
