This paper introduces a strategy to manipulate the flight paths of illegal UAVs by integrating Global Positioning System (GPS) spoofing with autonomous behavior control. The approach uses a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) outfitted with an onboard computer and a portable Software Defined Radio (SDR) device to emit false GPS signals from high altitudes, enabling continuous tracking of civilian UAVs that enter restricted zones illegally. This method overcomes the limitations of low-power systems in reaching long-distance targets. In near-ground outdoor experiments, the UAV's navigation system is successfully deceived, causing it to fly in the intended direction. The results confirm this method's ability to effectively redirect the flight paths of high-altitude illegal UAVs, achieving precise interference and control. This method is cost-effective and efficient, making it suitable for protecting sensitive areas from illegal UAV incursions.
