But to hit the drones, the military first needs to be able to see them. That\u2019s difficult enough in the desert or in open areas, and it\u2019s even harder to do in cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s where the Aerial Dragnet program comes in. The wide-area surveillance capability from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency uses sensors mounted on drones to detect, classify and track small drones in dense, urban environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re using drones to find drones, essentially,\u201d Paul Zablocky, a program manager with the DARPA Strategic Technology Office, said Wednesday during the annual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/show-reporter\/c4isrnet-conference\/\" target=\"_blank\">C4ISRNET Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The government is concerned about the various dangers posed by small UAS, which can be armed with explosives or used to collect sensitive information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA small drone certainly poses a threat, and we\u2019ve seen that at airports. We\u2019ve seen on the news where they\u2019ve been equipped with explosives. We\u2019ve seen them used for ISR [intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance] capabilities. And these can be used against our soldiers as well as civilian populations, so there\u2019s certainly a threat there, and they are widely available,\u201d Zablocky explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DARPA wants Aerial Dragnet to eventually be able to interface with C-sUAS systems, passing along its tracking data from optical sensors, acoustic sensors and inexpensive radars so that the weapon system can defeat the threat. DARPA is targeting a price point of $20,000 for coverage of 20 square kilometers (about 12 miles), which Zablocky said is relatively cheap compared to other systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aerial Dragnet was tested in San Diego, California, in 2019 and more recently in Rosslyn, Virginia. The San Diego event was the first test of the system in a dense, urban environment, and Zablocky said he was surprised how much clutter showed up in the data. Using data from that test, DARPA has been able to refine its signal processing algorithms, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That effectively wraps up DARPA\u2019s testing of the system, said Zablocky, and the agency is looking to transition the program to another organization for further testing and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re in conversations now with transitioning that program over. There\u2019s still a lot of research and development to do,\u201d he added. \u201cSo we\u2019ve brought down a lot of the risks. We\u2019ve \u2014 as I said \u2014 collected a lot of data and have a much better understanding of what needs to be done, but to really turn this into a capability or product will still take some work, so we are in conversations with various organizations to pick it up and continue to run with it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Aerial Dragnet, DARPA is using
