System and method for spectrum situational awareness via server-based fusion in a command and control (C2) link system for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)

A centralized spectrum arbitrator for a command and control (C2) link system is disclosed. In embodiments, the spectrum arbitrator receives sensor fusion data from the air radio systems (ARS) and ground radio systems (GRS) of the C2 link system, each dataset comprising mean energy levels for a particular frequency and location. The spectrum arbitrator determines a time average of the energy levels and evaluates interference with the frequency at the location (e.g., whether the interference is tolerable or the frequency should not be used) and attempts to classify interfering signals (e.g., as radar, malicious, of the C2 link system or competing). The spectrum arbitrator may further fuse sensor fused data into additional spectrum situational awareness (SA) outputs illustrating or recommending opportunistic frequency use or reuse across the C2 link system.

Emitter identification through unobserved parameters

An apparatus and method identify emitters. The apparatus includes a receiver, a parameter estimator, a database, and a correlator. The receiver receives an electromagnetic signal from an emitter and measures actual values of observed parameters of the electromagnetic signal. The parameter estimator surmises surmised values of unobserved parameters from the actual values of the observed parameters. The actual values of the observed parameters and the surmised values of the unobserved parameters characterize the emitter. The database stores one or more entries for each emitter. Each entry specifies an identifier of an emitter and exemplary values of the observed and unobserved parameters. The correlator matches the actual values of the observed parameters and the surmised values of the unobserved parameters with the exemplary values of one of the entries of the emitter from which the receiver receives the electromagnetic signal. The correlator outputs the identifier from this entry in the database.
