Abstract :
Tracking targets from the ground is difficult due to natural and artificial barriers, and in some cases,
such as car detection, is dangerous, therefore, identifying targets using remote sensing is obvious. To
achieve the purpose, the desired camera is installed on the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). with
images processing on captured images from the camera, the system has used can identify the vehicle
using aerial images and follow it if it is necessary. An important issue to this matter is the accuracy of
the target detection. Therefore, efficient algorithms should be used in this field, and efforts have been
made to use a deep neural network in this regard because it has the best performance rather than other
methods. But using this network itself will cause other problems that are especially noticeable in realtime
applications of the identification system. Because this type of neural network needs a lot of time
to process information. Solving this problem will using strong hardware as much as possible, but these
systems cannot be installed on the UAV due to their high weight and large power consumption. For
this reason, in this paper, have tried to use pre-processing methods to identify possible moving targets
and illuminate other parts of images to reduce the volume of data to make processing easier, and then
the system can identify and track the car with the Light MobileNet-SSD network. This method is 25
times faster than other fast methods such as yolov3, and its loss rate is 0.02.
