Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) are widely available on today's market for use for use both as a hobby and to meet specific industrial needs, such as agriculture or parcel transport. This intensive use in various areas has also led to an increase in the illegitimate and criminal use of them, which has led to an interest in identification and detection techniques in the academic world. To address this topic, we propose a method that automates drone detection processes using their acoustic characteristics with different machine learning algorithms. In this study, we show the advantage of using machine learning techniques for drone detection. Experimental analysis demonstrates that the proposed method is promising in drone detection.
