Abstract: This disclosure talks about a cheap way to find unauthorized unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in places where security is important or where access is limited by monitoring radio frequency (RF) signals. The system uses long-range (LoRa) communication modules that are set up to passively watch for RF activity in the area and find strange signal behavior that happens when drones are flying. Detection is accomplished through the continuous analysis of fluctuations in Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values, pinpointing statistically significant deviations from a dynamically established baseline RF profile. When strange RF patterns that suggest a UAV is nearby are found, the system starts real-time alert systems to help people stay aware of what's going on and respond quickly. The design of the architecture makes it possible to use less power, make the hardware less complicated, and deploy it in a flexible way with distributed sensing nodes. According to performance tests, the system can reliably find RF disturbances related to UAVs within a range of about 20 to 80 meters, depending on the level of interference and the conditions in the environment. The suggested method is a more resource-efficient way to detect things than traditional radar and vision-based systems. This makes it possible to use it in situations where costs are important and infrastructure is limited.
