TECHNIQUES FOR IDENTIFYING AERIAL VEHICLES IN MOBILE NETWORKS

Abstract:

Some aspects described herein relate to provisioning aerial vehicles with identifiers, certificates, or other credentials for communicating based on a mobile network. The UAV can transmit a request to register with the mobile network, where the request includes at least a hardware identifier of the UAV. The UAV may receive, from a component of the mobile network, a response to the request, where the response includes a unique UAV identifier, a UAV certificate, and a network certificate generated by at least one of the component of the mobile network or a unmanned aircraft system service supplier (USS).
