Ltd.10.26689/jera.v9i5.12391ArticleResearch on Anti-UAV Technology in Urban Environmentshttps://artdesignp.com/journal/JERA/9/5/10.26689/jera.v9i5.12391WangLei,ChenHaotian,XiTao,XiaLei2025952025-10-21With the rapid development of drone technology, drones are increasingly used in urban environments, but they also bring many security risks, such as illegal reconnaissance, smuggling, and terrorist attacks. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the anti-UAV technology in the urban environment. This paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of existing technologies and their applicability in the urban environment from the aspects of UAV detection, identification, and countermeasures, and discusses the future development trend of anti-UAV technology, aiming to provide a reference for urban safety protection.
