Authentication and Handover Challenges and Methods for Drone Swarms

Drones are begin used for various purposes such as border security, surveillance, cargo delivery, visual shows and it is not possible to overcome intensive tasks with a single drone. In order expedite performing tasks, drone swarms employed. The number of drones in swarm can be high depending on the assigned duty. current solution authenticate using 5G new radio (NR) network requires execution two steps. first step covers authentication between core network, second control station. It feasible each without causing significant latency. Authentication keys base station (BS) user equipment (UE) must shared BS while handover. heavily mobile require several handovers from BS. Sharing explained NR scalable swarms. Also, UE or access node board unmanned aerial vehicle (UxNB). A UxNB may provide service rural area emergency. increase process sharing vulnerable eavesdropping due wireless connectivity. this work, we present method where time communication joining less than NR. addition, group-based handover solutions scenarios which stations terrestrial proposed scalability latency issues
