Abstract: Systems, cooperative uncrewed vehicles, and methods for detecting an uncooperative uncrewed vehicle within a plurality of cooperative uncrewed vehicles are provided. For example, a system may include a plurality of cooperative uncrewed vehicles. Each cooperative vehicle is configured to transmit a respective first RF signal containing a unique ID code, receive reflections of the first RF signal reflected off other cooperative vehicles and at least one uncooperative vehicle, calculate a distance at which the first RF signal was reflected, create one or more point clouds corresponding to the reflections of the first RF signal; determine distances to each of the cooperative vehicles, and correlate the point clouds with distances to each of the cooperative vehicles to determine which of the point clouds is associated with which of the cooperative vehicles and therefore which point cloud is associated with the uncooperative vehicle.
