Abstract EN
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of the United States is considering Remote ID systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
These systems act as license plates used on automobiles, but they transmit information using radio waves.
To be useful, the transmissions in such systems need to reach long distances to minimize the number of ground stations to capture these transmissions.
LoRaWAN is designed as a cheap long-range technology to be used for long-range communication for the Internet of Things.
Several manufacturers make LoRaWAN modules, which are readily available on the market and are, therefore, ideal for the UAVs Remote IDs at a low cost.
In this paper, we present our experiences in using LoRaWAN technology as a communication technology.
Our experiments to identify and locate the UAV systems uncovered several issues of using LoRaWAN in such systems that are documented in this paper.
Using several ground stations, we can determine the location of a UAV equipped with a LoRaWAN module that transmits the UAV Remote ID.
Hence, it can help identify UAVs that unintentionally, or intentionally, fly into restricted zones.
