    Abstract: A drone detection system includes a plurality of base stations, which are distributed over a geographic area that includes a facility. Each base station is configured to emit radio signals that are monitored for reflection data, which is generated when the radio signals reflect from an object. A server is configured to process the reflection data to identify a drone in proximity to the facility. The processing is configured to process the reflection data over time to identify trajectory metrics for the identified drone. The trajectory metrics are configured to predict a path of the drone and determine if the drone constitutes a threat to the facility. An alert is processed by the server when the drone is determined to constitute a threat to the facility. A data center is configured to receive and store processed reflection data that has been processed by the server.
