Abstract

A computer-implemented method for establishing and controlling a mobile perimeter and for determining a geographic location of an RF emitting source at or within the mobile perimeter includes receiving from RF sensors in a network, processed RF emissions from the source collected at RF sensors. The RF emissions follow a wireless protocol and include frames encoding RF emitting source identification information. The method further includes extracting RF emitting source identification information from one or more of the frames, processing the source identification information to identify the RF emitting source, and classifying the RF emitting source by one or more of UAS type, UAS capabilities, and UAS model. The method also includes receiving from the RF sensors, a geographic location of each RF sensor and a time of arrival (TOA) of the RF emissions at the RF sensor; and executing a multilateration process to estimate a geographic location of the RF emitting source.
