Qihang Liu, Shuo Su, Yao Yao, Bing Gui, Zhiyuan Shen

Abstract—Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) category recognition is a significant problem for airport airspace operation. An accurate and efficient identification of UAV is expected to fast predict of UAV behavior and implement the defense. This study presents an UAV spectrum classification framework using radio frequency (RF) signals. In the framework, the spectrum is combined with the ResNet50 neural network model. An open source dataset namely DroneRF is used to test the efficiency of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the highest accuracy rate of the proposed framework reached to 100%. Compared with the state-ofthe-art method, this study has a higher improvement of accuracy rates.
