Abstract

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection method and a system therefor are provided. The UAV detection method includes receiving a radio signal from air, detecting a global positioning system (GPS) leakage signal of a predetermined frequency from the received radio signal, and determining that a UAV is detected when the GPS leakage signal is detected.

Claims (21)

1. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection method, comprising:

receiving a reflection signal corresponding to a radio signal using a circular cylindrical active array (CCAA) antenna from air;

detecting a global positioning system (GPS) leakage signal of a predetermined frequency from the received reflection signal by detecting one or more GPS leakage signals for at least one of a plurality of different types of UAVs based on preset information about an oscillator associated with each of the plurality of different types of UAVs;

determining that a UAV is detected when the GPS leakage signal is detected; and

displaying visual information corresponding to the detected UAV responsive to the detection of the UAV.

2. The UAV detection method of claim 1 , wherein the determining that the UAV is detected comprises:

determining that the UAV is detected, when a harmonic frequency signal of the GPS leakage signal is detected.

3. The UAV detection method of claim 2 , wherein the determining that the UAV is detected comprises:

determining that the UAV is detected, when at least one of a second harmonic frequency signal or a third harmonic frequency signal of the GPS leakage signal is detected.

4. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection method, comprising:

setting UAV information about an oscillator that is associated with a plurality of different types of UAVs to be detected;

receiving a reflection signal corresponding to a radio signal using a circular cylindrical active array (CCAA) antenna from air;

detecting a global positioning system (GPS) leakage signal of a frequency corresponding to the set UAV information from the received reflection signal by detecting one or more GPS leakage signals for each of a plurality of different types of UAVs based on preset information about an oscillator associated with each of the plurality of different types of UAVs; and

determining that at least one of the plurality of different types of UAVs is detected when the GPS leakage signal is detected.

5. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection system, comprising:

a reception means configured to receive a reflection signal corresponding to a radio signal using a circular cylindrical active array (CCAA) antenna from air;

a detection means configured to detect a global positioning system (GPS) leakage signal of a predetermined frequency from the reflection signal by detecting one or more GPS leakage signals for at least one of a plurality of different types of UAVs based on preset information about an oscillator associated with each of the plurality of different types of UAVs;

a detection means configured to determine that a UAV is detected when the GPS leakage signal is detected; and

a display means configured to display visual information corresponding to the detected UAV when the UAV is detected.

6. The UAV detection system of claim 5 , wherein the determination means determines that the UAV is detected, when a harmonic frequency signal of the GPS leakage signal is detected.

7. The UAV detection system of claim 6 , wherein the determination means determines that the UAV is detected, when at least one of a second harmonic frequency signal or a third harmonic frequency signal of the GPS leakage signal is detected.
