UAV Target Detection under Complex Sky Background
Abstract
At present, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely used in various fields, and the management of UAVs is very important to solve the problems in the field of low-altitude safety. Due to the low flying height, small radar cross section, and inconspicuous characteristic signals of UAVs, the detection of UAVs based on video frames taken by fixed cameras cannot meet the existing requirements in terms of tracking speed and recognition accuracy. This paper proposes a multi-sensor fusion model. Firstly, the UAV target signal is improved by spatial filtering and improved Sobel operator edge detection algorithm, and then Gaussian filter is used to denoise, and finally the UAV small target is extracted based on the maximum inter-class variance method threshold segmentation algorithm. Experimental results show that this method can effectively enhance the UAV target signal in a complex environment, and the threshold segmentation method also has good adaptability, and can effectively screen UAVs under a complex sky background.
