A Review of RF Based Drone Detection, Direction of Arrival and Identification Techniques

In this review, different drone detection methodologies based-RF techniques are presented and discussed. Where, the drone RF-techniques are depended on communications signals between drone and its controller for controlling of flying or for video transmission signals. On the bases of these detection methodologies, a lot of researcher proposed different methods to determine the direction of arrival (DOA) of the presence drone in the protected area. Some of these methods have been discussed and compared in this paper. Also, the identification techniques based on drone fingerprint are discussed and evaluated. Finally, a universal comparisons for different methods and techniques are presented for the purpose of present an efficient summary useful for next researchers working in this field, as well as propose a new methodology for both detection and identification of drone..
