Comparison of spectrogram, persistence spectrum and percentile spectrum based image representation performances in drone detection and classification using novel HMFFNet: Hybrid Model with Feature Fusion Network

作者:

Highlights:

• HMFFNet, a new drone detection and classification framework, is proposed.

• RF signals are represented by spectrogram, persistence and percentile spectrums.

• VGG19 net is utilized for feature extraction from the obtained images.

• Features are fused in various combinations and then processed using SVM classifier.

• Obtained experimental results are compared with that of state-of-the-art studies.
