Abstract
Drones have been widely used in various fields due to the rapid development of done-related technologies, which causes various problems. The schemes which can track target drones by using signal transmitted by target drones have been investigated as a key technology for anti-drone systems to solve these problems. In this paper, we investigate an illegal drone tracking system based on swarming flight that consists of multiple small drones in order to resolve the limitations of a conventional system that consists of a single drone. In addition, we also propose a scheme with which we can adaptively adjust the separation distance between small drones in a swarm according to channel situations. We analyzed the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of success ratio and the number of movements. The proposed scheme can improve the success ratio and the number of movements by 170% and 63% respectively, compared to the conventional scheme.
