Advances in UAV Detection, Classification and Tracking-II

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, the research and development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and their state-of-the-art applications have become one of the fastest-growing fields among scholars. There have been advancements in core areas of UAV technology, such as detection, including visible-band and thermal infrared imaging, radio frequency, and radar; classifications, such as micro, mini, close range, short range, medium range, medium range endurance, low-altitude deep penetration, low-altitude long endurance, and medium-altitude long endurance; tracking, including lateral tracking, vertical tracking, moving aerial pan with moving target, and moving aerial tilt with moving target.

This Special Issue intends to propose solutions to problems associated with UAV detection, UAV classifications, and UAV tracking.
