TL;DR

Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed sequential pipeline preserves high specificity while reducing missed detections compared to radar-only processing and indicates that sequential processing can offer a viable alternative to parallel fusion for edge-based drone detection under SNR and computing constraints.
