Development of Dynamic Platform with MEMS Microphones Array Embedded for UAV Detection and Tracking

This study introduces a dynamic platform with a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) microphone array for robust unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection and tracking. Leveraging the compactness of MEMS technology, the platform integrates microphones to capture UAV acoustic signatures using Direction of Arrival (DOA) and Beamforming technologies. Its adaptability optimizes surveillance coverage, surpassing the limitations of visual tracking in adverse conditions. This research details the design, calibration, and integration processes, validated through rigorous testing. This innovation improves real-time situational awareness, offering a promising solution for security and defense applications.
