Abstract
This paper discusses cellular network security for unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) and provides insights into the ongoing Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standardization efforts with respect to authentication and authorization, location information privacy, and command and control signaling. We introduce the 3GPP reference architecture for network connected UAS and the new network functions as part of the 5G core network, discuss introduce the three security contexts, potential threats, and the 3GPP procedures. The paper identifies research opportunities for UAS communications security and recommends critical security features and processes to be considered for standardization.
