Combating Drone Intrusions: A Survey of Detection Methods & Future Research

Authors- Kabir Kohli

Abstract-The Indian drone market is expected to grow from about $1 billion in 2022 to over $5 billion by 2025, driven by government initiatives and supportive regulations. Globally, the drone market, valued at $30 billion in 2022, is projected to reach $100 billion by 2030. Drones, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), have become crucial in military operations, transforming how forces conduct surveillance, reconnaissance, and combat missions. Their remote and autonomous capabilities offer key advantages, such as reducing human risk, gathering real-time intelligence, and executing precision strikes in hostile environments. While autonomous aerial monitoring and identification mechanisms (AAS) provide flexibility for military applications, the rise in civilian drone use brings individual confidentiality and safeguarding measures concerns. To safeguard critical infrastructure and protect individual individual confidentiality from unauthorized drone use, effective drone monitoring and identification monitoring and identification mechanisms are necessary. Such monitoring and identification mechanisms must be efficient, accurate, robust, scalable, and cost-effective. Although various monitoring and identification methods have been developed, they often fall short due to limitations in the underlying technology, leading to trade-offs between factors like accuracy, monitoring and identification range, and resilience to environmental conditions. This highlights the need for a detailed evaluation of existing approaches. This paper reviews current drone monitoring and identification techniques and provides key insights for improving future monitoring and identification monitoring and identification mechanisms.
