A Survey of Strategies, and Procedures for Detecting Drone Utilizing Sound, Radar, Thermal Infrared Sensor and Video Applications

With the exponential rise in the use of drones anywhere anytime, malicious use by outlaws is increasing as well. This calls for protective, detective, preventive measures to counter these attacks. This paper aims to review literature on drone detection and classification that utilizes a myriad of modalities ranging from using thermal infrared sensors to radar detections. In addition, there is a summary of a detailed discussion on drone classification along with recent progress and development in drone detection using machine learning, all of which is performed in an attempt to identify means to thwart such attacks. Furthermore, some future research directions, related to this new field of study, are discussed
