Systems, methods, and devices for detecting UAVs in an RF environment are disclosed. A node device is constructed and configured for network communication with at least one camera. The at least one camera captures images of the RF environment and transmits video data to the apparatus. The node device receives RF data and generates FFT data based on the RF data, identifies at least one signal based on a first derivative and a second derivative of the FFT data, measures a direction from which the at least one signal is transmitted, analyzes the video data. The node device then identifies at least one UAV to which the at least one signal is related based on the analyzed video data, and controls the at least one camera based on the direction from which the at least one signal is transmitted. |
