This thesis explores the process of designing an automatic multisensordrone detection system using machine learning and sensorfusion.

The detector performance as a functionof the sensor-to-target distance is also investigated. Using sensor fusion, the system is made more robust than the individualsensors. It is observed that when using the proposed sensorfusion approach, the output system results are more stable, and thenumber of false detections is mitigated.
