This article presents a hybrid approach for UAV detection that combines two artificial-intelligence-based methods to improve system accuracy. The first method uses a software-defined radio (SDR) to analyze the radio spectrum, employing autoencoders to detect drone control signals and identify the presence of these devices. The second method is a computer vision module consisting of fixed cameras and a PTZ camera, which uses the YOLOv10 object detection algorithm to identify UAVs in real time from video sequences. Additionally, this module integrates a localization and tracking algorithm, allowing the tracking of the intruding UAV's position. Experimental results demonstrate high detection accuracy, a significant reduction in false positives for both methods, and remarkable effectiveness in UAV localization and tracking with the PTZ camera. These findings position the proposed system as a promising solution for security applications.This research was funded by Red.Es.MDPI AGEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de TelecomunicaciónDepartamento de ComunicacionesInstituto Universitario de Telecomunicación y Aplicaciones MultimediaRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20242024-12-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/214752reponame:RiuNet.
