Abstract

A method for regulating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes receiving a UAV identifier and one or more types of contextual information broadcasted by the UAV. The UAV identifier uniquely identifies the UAV from other UAVs. The one or more types of contextual information includes at least geographical information of the UAV. The method further includes authenticating, via an authentication device, an identity of the UAV based on the UAV identifier to determine whether the UAV is authorized for operation, and transmitting a signal to a remote device in response to determining whether the UAV is authorized for operation.
