    Abstract: A radar system for tracking UAVs and other low flying objects utilizing wireless networking equipment is provided. The system is implemented as a distributed low altitude radar system where transmitting antennas are coupled with the wireless networking equipment to radiate signals in a skyward direction. A receiving antenna or array receives signals radiated from the transmitting antenna, and in particular, signals or echoes reflected from the object in the skyward detection region. One or more processing components is electronically coupled with the wireless networking equipment and receiving antenna to receive and manipulate signal information to provide recognition of and track low flying objects and their movement within the coverage region. The system may provide detection of objects throughout a plurality of regions by networking regional nodes, and aggregating the information to detect and track UAVs and other low flying objects as they move within the detection regions.

    Abstract: A system for verifying the integrity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which is configured to reside in a UAV and interface with both the communications system of the UAV and the UAV's software and hardware resources. The UAV may be configured to execute firmware that obtains a serial number or unique identifier of hardware and software on the UAV, creates a hash code combination of such unique identifiers, encrypts the hash code, transmits the encrypted hash code over a wired or wireless communications system to another computer which maintains a table of the certified codes of each UAV which results in the computer authenticating the specific UAV (or not). The system also may determine whether a specific UAV's hardware or software has been changed since the UAV was last certified.
