Abstract
The present subject matter provides various technical solutions to technical problems facing UAV detection, threat assessment, and mitigation purposes. UAV detection may be accomplished using a variety of UAV sensors and systems, which may be used in an Unmanned Aerial System Mitigation and Detection system to generate a UAV Automated Threat Assessment and a UAV mitigation solution. The UAV Automated Threat Assessment may be generated by combining input from various sensors and systems. For example, the UAV Automated Threat Assessment may selectively combine data received from geographically arranged sensors, assemble the input from those sensors using a user-adjustable artificial neural network (ANN), determine whether a potential intruding UAV is not a threat, is transiting, is loitering, or is attacking, and generates a mitigation solution output to an operator that includes an automated mitigation notification.
