TTCP AG-6: acoustic detection and tracking of UAVs

Acoustic sensor arrays can be used effectively to enhance situational awareness and perimeter defense against small low-flying threat aircraft. In this paper, we discuss the activities of The Technical Cooperative Program (TTCP) Action Group 6 (AG6) on acoustic detection and tracking of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). We briefly discuss the TTCP-AG6’s mission and goals, describe field experiments conducted in the U.S., present results from data analysis and discuss current and future activities.
