In this paper, we propose a signal intelligence (SIGINT) drone swarm system with a three-dimensional (3-D) volumetric self-complementary array configuration. In the proposed system, multiple drones form two array layers separated along the boresight direction of the system, providing sufficient spacing between drones mounting an antenna element. The antenna elements in one array layer are arranged in a complementary manner to fill empty spaces in the other layer, allowing the system to maximize the number of drones deployed within the aperture area. As a result, the effective electrical spacing at 300 MHz is reduced from 1.7λ and 0.9λ to 0.85λ and 0.45λ along the x- and y-axes, respectively. The array gains of the proposed system are 3.96 dBi, 6.40 dBi, and 15.3 dBi at 100 MHz, 200 MHz, and 300 MHz, and the side-lobe levels (SLLs) are −13.0 dB, −12.7 dB, and −13.0 dB. In addition, the proposed drone swarm SIGINT system is evaluated in a practical SIGINT environment that considers terrain features, and then the detection performance is compared with those of conventional ground-based and airborne SIGINT systems. In this SIGINT scenario, the proposed system can detect signals over an extended detection range of 150 km than those of ground-based and airborne systems.
