A General Acoustic Drone Detection Using Noise Reduction Preprocessing

Abstract
As individual and group users actively use drones, the risks (Intrusion, Information leakage, and Sircraft crashes and so on) in no-fly zones are also increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to build a system that can detect drones intruding into the no-fly zone. General acoustic drone detection researches do not derive location-independent performance by directly learning drone sound including environmental noise in a deep learning model to overcome environmental noise. In this paper, we propose a drone detection system that collects sounds including environmental noise, and detects drones by removing noise from target sound. After removing environmental noise from the collected sound, the proposed system predicts the drone sound using Mel spectrogram and CNN deep learning. As a result, It is confirmed that the drone detection performance, which was weak due to unstudied environmental noises, can be improved by more than 7%.
