Over the last few years there has been an unprecedented interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, drones potentially pose great threats to security and public safety, especially when their malicious use involves critical infrastructures and public spaces. This work proposes a multiagent counter-drone system where a team of pursuer drones cooperate in order to track and jam multiple rogue drones. Specifically, a cooperative multi-agent approach is proposed in which the best joint mobility and power control actions of each agent are chosen so that the rogue drones are optimally tracked and jammed over time. Two variants of the joint optimization problem are developed and extensive simulations are conducted so as to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach.
