[0042] Figure 2 This is a mind map of the system modules of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the individual drone countermeasure method based on radio frequency identification and dynamic jamming described in this embodiment includes:

[0045] Use wide-band radio frequency receiving equipment to collect communication signals in the airspace and obtain complex IQ data streams;

[0046] Perform bandpass filtering, window framing, and synchronization processing on the IQ data stream to extract the target signal segment;

[0047] Extracting radio frequency high-order micro-features based on the target signal segment, wherein the micro-features include instantaneous frequency deviation fluctuation features and envelope entropy anomaly features;

[0048] Inputting the instantaneous frequency deviation fluctuation feature and the envelope entropy abnormal feature into a representation learning model for high-dimensional encoding processing, wherein the representation learning model is a variational autoencoder and outputs an embedding vector for identification and discrimination;

[0049] Inputting the embedding vector into a signal classification model to determine whether the signal belongs to drone communication, wherein the signal classification model is selected from a graph neural network;

[0050] If the identification result indicates that the signal is an illegal drone communication signal, an interference strategy is generated based on its frequency, modulation characteristics and timing rules to dynamically interfere with the target signal segment.

[0051] The radio frequency signal acquisition step of the present invention is intended to obtain the original data of all possible drone communication signals in the target airspace, providing a signal basis for subsequent identification and interference.

[0052] During flight, drones rely on control signals and image transmission signals to communicate with their controllers. Common frequency bands include but are not limited to 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz, 900MHz, and some Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LTE, or 5G bands. To ensure wide coverage and adaptability, this step uses wide-band RF receiving equipment to simultaneously or continuously scan and monitor multiple frequency bands, acquiring wireless communication data streams and storing the original signals in complex IQ (In-Phase and Quadrature) sampling format.

[0053] The wide-band RF receiving device may include one or a combination of the following components: a software-defined radio (SDR) with a tunable frequency range covering 300 MHz to 6 GHz, such as USRP, HackRF, BladeRF, AirSpy, etc.; a front-end low-noise amplifier (LNA) to improve receiving sensitivity; a multi-band antenna or a steerable directional antenna array to enhance the ability to receive signals in a specific direction; a clock synchronization module (GPSDO or local frequency stabilization source) to ensure sampling consistency; and a high-speed data interface (USB 3.0, PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet, etc.) connected to the processing terminal to transmit IQ data streams.

[0054] The device is set to cover the commonly used communication frequency bands of drones (such as 2.4GHz±100MHz, 5.8GHz±150MHz, etc.), and can dynamically adjust the monitoring center frequency and bandwidth according to the scenario.

[0055] Sampling parameter settings: Sampling rate: The preferred range is 10 MHz ~ 40 MHz, determined by signal bandwidth and device performance; Resolution bit: 8-bit or 12-bit complex sampling is commonly used, corresponding to the I / Q channels respectively; Data structure: Each frame of data is a complex vector IQ of length N, where . I(t) represents the in-phase component, that is, the part that has the same frequency and phase as the reference signal (usually the carrier signal). It usually represents the real part of the signal. Q(t) represents the quadrature component, that is, the part that is 90 degrees out of phase with the I component. It usually represents the imaginary part of the signal. j is the imaginary unit, which is used to represent the phase difference between the quadrature component Q(t) and the in-phase component I(t). The collected IQ data is stored in binary or HDF5 format, and the accompanying metadata includes: timestamp (Unix time), center frequency, bandwidth, sampling rate, device number; current receiving antenna direction (if applicable).

[0056] The complex IQ data stream may include but is not limited to the following types of signals:

[0057] Frequency-hopping control signals (e.g., FHSS) transmitted by the drone remote controller; continuous video streams (e.g., OFDM-encoded video signals) transmitted by the drone image transmission module; control and image data transmitted using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or LTE protocols; and other non-drone background wireless signals (as control samples or ambient noise).

[0058] This step supports the parallel deployment of multiple devices to improve spatial resolution and response speed; it can be combined with array antenna technology to achieve signal direction positioning; if it is necessary to cover 5G drone communication channels, the frequency band can be expanded to the Sub-6GHz and mmWave (millimeter wave) range.

[0059] Through this step, high-quality drone communication data can be stably obtained in real complex electromagnetic environments. It is particularly suitable for unbiased original capture of unknown or disguised communication signals, providing a basic guarantee for subsequent feature extraction and intelligent recognition, and has strong environmental adaptability and system scalability.

[0060] The present invention performs necessary signal preprocessing on the collected complex IQ data stream, including bandpass filtering, window framing and signal synchronization processing, to ensure the signal quality, structural consistency and processing efficiency of the input data.

[0061] Bandpass filtering is used to remove background interference signals that are irrelevant to the target frequency band, improve the signal-to-noise ratio, and isolate the effective energy area of the frequency band where the drone communicates.

[0062] According to the center frequency configured in the signal acquisition stage And bandwidth B, construct a bandpass filter: ; The filter can take one of the following forms:

[0063] Digital FIR filter (Finite Impulse Response);

[0064] IIR filters (such as Butterworth, Chebyshev);

[0065] Window function filters (Hanning window, Blackman window, etc.);

[0066] In the implementation process, the signal can be converted to the frequency domain based on FFT (Fast Fourier Transform), then filtered in the frequency domain and inversely transformed back to the time domain;

[0067] The filter design parameters are based on the sampling rate Determined by the target signal characteristics, for example, the center frequency of the image transmission signal is set to 5.8 GHz and the bandwidth is set to 20 MHz.

[0068] Windowing and Framing is used to divide a continuous IQ signal sequence into signal frames of equal length, facilitating batch processing and feature analysis while enhancing timing sensitivity.

[0069] Set the window length L (e.g. 1024 points, 2048 points) and the overlap ratio r (e.g. 50%) to prevent edge information loss. Use a window function to weight each frame to reduce spectrum leakage. Common window functions include Hamming window, Hanning window, Blackman window, etc. The signal after windowing is: Where x[n] is a real or complex sequence of original signal samples (such as IQ data). This is a frame of the signal, containing continuous samples of length L, expressed as sampled values in the time domain. It usually comes from a frame segmented from the IQ data. w[n] represents the window function coefficient, with a domain of [0, L−1]. The window function is a mathematical function used for weighted processing. Common windows include the Hamming window, the Hanning window, and the Blackman window. Its main function is to reduce the influence of frame edges and suppress spectral leakage. xw[n] represents the windowed signal, which is the result of multiplying each sample by the corresponding position of the window function. It is the input for subsequent feature extraction or spectrum analysis. n represents a discrete time index, from 0 to L−1, representing the position index of the signal sample currently being processed.

[0070] Sliding window processing obtains the frame sequence: ;in, Where, Frame shift.

[0071] Synchronous processing means unifying the reference starting point of the signal, ensuring the phase, frequency and structure alignment between different frames, and eliminating errors caused by sampling offset or carrier drift.

[0072] Starting point synchronization: Use the energy threshold method to detect the signal starting position and determine whether the frame contains a valid signal segment: ;like >θ (preset energy threshold), the frame is determined to be a signal frame.

[0073] Estimate the carrier frequency offset Δf and phase offset Δϕ between adjacent frames and digitally down-convert the IQ data: Where, represents the complex exponential twiddle factor, represents the corrected IQ signal.

[0074] The spectrum center is fine-tuned using the Maximum Likelihood Frequency Offset Estimator (ML Estimator) or the pilot-based frequency offset estimation method. The degree of frequency offset can be determined and dynamically corrected by periodic pilot symbol matching.

[0075] Based on the processed frame sequence, a set of frames that may be drone communications is extracted as input for subsequent feature extraction and recognition steps.

[0076] Simple rules can be used for initial screening (e.g., continuous energy above the threshold for more than 3 consecutive frames); or a primary classifier (e.g., lightweight CNN, clustering algorithm) can be introduced to perform preliminary classification of signal segments; after extraction, the target signal segment data structure is generated: , each segment is of length L; each segment is accompanied by meta-information: center frequency, timestamp, preliminary confidence score, etc.

[0077] Through the above preprocessing process, background noise can be effectively filtered, signal morphology can be regularized, and key communication events can be aligned to ensure the data quality and discrimination efficiency of subsequent feature extraction and recognition tasks, especially in the face of complex multi-source interference scenarios with stability and accuracy.

[0078] After completing the extraction of the target signal segment, the present invention needs to perform RF high-order micro-feature analysis on the segment to explore the fine-grained properties of the signal that cannot be identified by traditional frequency domain features, and enhance the robustness of recognition of camouflaged, encrypted or frequency-hopping drone signals.

[0079] The instantaneous frequency deviation fluctuation feature is used to characterize the subtle changes in the frequency fluctuation of the signal on the time axis. This feature can reveal the communication behavior characteristics generated by the frequency hopping control signal or unstable carrier source.

[0080] Instantaneous frequency represents the derivative of the signal phase with respect to time and is defined as: ;in, is the instantaneous phase of the IQ signal, and the calculation formula is: ; By calculating the phase change of continuous sampling points , and divided by the sampling period T, the frequency offset sequence can be obtained: ;Where, T is the sampling period; Represents the instantaneous frequency value of each sampling point; further calculating the standard deviation of the frequency sequence, we can get the frequency deviation fluctuation intensity value, and its formula is: ; Where SG is the frequency deviation fluctuation intensity value; is the average frequency offset, and M is the number of samples.

[0081] High-frequency deviation fluctuation intensity: This is commonly seen in frequency-hopping remote controls or low-quality transmitters. Low-frequency deviation fluctuation intensity: This corresponds to industrial-grade image transmission modules or static relay signals and can be used as a key indicator to distinguish camouflaged signals from real drone signals.

[0082] The envelope entropy anomaly feature is used to evaluate the signal modulation depth and its randomness characteristics, and to capture modulation anomalies, masked modulation patterns or structural unnatural signals.

[0083] set up is the IQ signal modulus, that is, the envelope, and the expression is: ; Normalize the signal envelope into a probability distribution form (by constructing a histogram or kernel density estimation), and then calculate the entropy value based on the Shannon entropy definition: ; H is the envelope entropy, Indicates the probability density of the i-th envelope amplitude interval; F is the number of segments. If the signal has a high degree of certainty (such as fixed modulation image transmission), its entropy value is low; if the signal has strong modulation jitter or irregular envelope changes, its entropy value increases. In order to detect anomalies, the envelope entropy anomaly deviation value is further defined , the expression is: ;in, is the standard envelope entropy of known legal drones, Indicates the envelope entropy of the current signal. Large It may indicate that the signal has been artificially scrambled, mixed modulated, or simulated and forged; it is suitable for identifying mixed modulated drone control signals forged through SDR; combined with the high-frequency deviation fluctuation intensity value, it can improve the classification accuracy of complex signal sources.

[0084] The instantaneous frequency deviation fluctuation feature and the envelope entropy abnormal feature are input into the representation learning model for high-dimensional encoding processing. The representation learning model is a variational autoencoder that outputs an embedded vector for identification and discrimination, specifically including:

[0085] The micro features include instantaneous frequency deviation fluctuation features and envelope entropy anomaly features.

[0086] And includes the following representation learning encoding steps:

[0087] The frequency deviation fluctuation intensity value and the envelope entropy abnormal deviation value are combined into a two-dimensional input vector, which is input into the variational autoencoder model for high-dimensional encoding processing.

[0088] The variational autoencoder model includes an encoder network for extracting a latent variable mean vector and a standard deviation vector of an input feature vector; a reparameter sampling module for calculating a latent variable embedding vector based on the latent variable mean and standard deviation;

[0089] The embedded vector is used as an input feature for subsequent drone signal discrimination to improve the accuracy of classification and recognition of camouflaged, frequency-hopping or abnormal radio frequency communication signals.

[0090] The present invention inputs the embedding vector into a signal classification model to determine whether the signal belongs to drone communication. The signal classification model is selected from a graph neural network and specifically includes:

[0091] The embedding vector representing the output of the variational autoencoder is used as the node feature; each target signal segment corresponds to a node, and the embedding vector represents the attribute characteristics of the node, which is used to construct the graph structure.

[0092] Construct a graph G=(V,E), where V represents a set of nodes, each corresponding to a segment of RF signal; E represents a set of edges, representing the correlation between nodes (such as time proximity, frequency proximity, and feature similarity); optional edge construction methods include: time series edges: connecting signal segments that are consecutive in time; similarity edges: measuring proximity in feature space based on cosine similarity, Euclidean distance, etc.

[0093] Constructing a graph neural network model (such as GCN, GraphSAGE, GAT): Each layer aggregates and updates the information of neighboring nodes, expressed as: ;in: Represents the features of the i-th node at the l-th layer; represents the neighbor set of the i-th node; represents a learnable weight matrix; σ represents an activation function (such as ReLU); the output of the last layer is the node label probability, indicating whether the signal is a drone communication.

[0094] A binary classification label is output for each node (i.e., each segment of the embedding vector): Label 1: indicates that the signal segment belongs to drone communication (control signal or image transmission); Label 0: indicates that the signal segment is not drone communication or background interference. At the same time, the classification confidence (softmax or sigmoid) is output for reference by the interference decision module.

[0095] If the identification result indicates that the signal is an illegal drone communication signal, a jamming strategy is generated based on its frequency, modulation characteristics, and timing patterns to dynamically jam the target signal segment, specifically including:

[0096] Interference frequency selection (frequency alignment) includes: ; represents the center frequency of the interference signal, Indicates the center frequency of the target signal (provided by the identification module). Δf represents the frequency offset compensation coefficient, which is used for dynamic frequency tracking. The initial value can be 0 and can be adjusted to cope with frequency hopping behavior.

[0098] Interference modulation mode adaptation includes: Where, Indicates the interference modulation mode (such as CW, Noise, Chirp, OFDM, Sweep, etc.), Indicates the modulation mode of the target signal (such as QPSK, FSK, DSSS, etc.); Match is the modulation adaptation function, and the rule can be set as: If it is frequency hopping (FHSS), then Use broad spectrum noise; if For fixed modulation image transmission (such as OFDM), Use frequency suppression or anti-modulation deception.

[0099] Dynamic power control (based on signal strength) includes: Where, represents the interference transmission power, represents the target signal strength (which can be obtained through RSSI or energy estimation); β represents the power margin factor (1.5-3.0 is recommended); and Z represents the minimum interference threshold of the device (taking into account the ambient noise floor).

[0101] Through the dynamic jamming strategy generation method, it is possible to accurately suppress or deceive complex drone signals such as frequency hopping, time division, and multi-modulation. At the same time, it reduces power output and the risk of false positives while ensuring the effectiveness of the jamming. This is conducive to building a rule-driven + learning-optimized composite jamming system architecture.
