Intruder Drone Detection using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Borne Radar (UAVBR) via Reconfigurable Intelligent Reflective Surface (IRS)

Easy availability of the Drones/Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) may lead to a carping situation. This makes it important to detect the presence of the Intruder drone in any particular area. Towards this matter, work is taken up on detection of intruder drone using UAV Borne Radar (UAVBR) via Reconfigurable Intelligent Reflective Surface (IRS). Direct Line of Sight (LoS) scenario may occur while detection of intruder drone but signal may be weak. So, to increase the probability of detection of intruder drone Reconfigurable IRS is used with various pattern of IRS such as Uniform Linear Array (ULA), Uniform Rectangular Array (URA) and Uniform Circular Array (UCA). Further, performance analysis is done by considering different parameters in Matlab software.
