Buried survivor detection in the post-disaster environment by employing radar as sensor is an appealing approach. However, the implementation in the real field is challenging especially for large observation missions. Mounting the radar on the flying drone is the most promising solution. In this case, since the limitations of drones such as low computer specification and limited power resources, an efficient radar data processing is crucially required. Hence, this paper study about the implementation of the integral image technique to optimize the computation of the signal processing step of ultra-wideband impulse radar signatures. The evaluation was held on the single board computer mounted on the developed multisensory drone. The results confirm that the developed method can relatively reduce the data processing time.
