The recent worldwide introduction of RemoteID (RID) regulations forces all Unmanned Aircrafts (UAs), a.k.a. drones, to broadcast in plaintext on the wireless channel their identity and real-time location, for accounting and monitoring…
Due to the frequent unauthorized access by commercial drones to Critical Infrastructures (CIs) such as airports and oil refineries, the US-based Federal Avionics Administration (FAA) recently published a new specification, namely RemoteID.…
The forthcoming era of massive drone delivery deployment in urban environments raises a need to develop reliable control and monitoring systems. While active solutions, i.e., wireless sharing of a real-time location between air traffic…
Drone Remote Identification (RID) plays a critical role in low-altitude airspace supervision, yet its broadcast nature and lack of cryptographic protection make it vulnerable to spoofing and replay attacks. In this paper, we propose a…
Drones are widely used in the energy, construction, agriculture, transportation, warehousing, real estate and movie industries. Key applications include surveys, inspections, deliveries and cinematography. With approximately 70-80% of the…
For many applications, drones are required to operate entirely or partially autonomously. To fly completely or partially on their own, drones need access to location services to get navigation commands. While using the Global Positioning…
Mysterious sightings of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) over U.S. military facilities, suburban neighborhoods, and commercial airports have intensified scrutiny of drone activity. To increase accountability, the Federal Aviation…
Using unlabeled wild data containing both in-distribution (ID) and out-of-distribution (OOD) data to improve the safety and reliability of models has recently received increasing attention. Existing methods either design customized losses…
The Internet of Drones (IoD) is an emerging and crucial paradigm enabling advanced applications that require seamless, secure communication across heterogeneous and untrusted domains. In such environments, access control and the…
Navigating in environments where the GPS signal is unavailable, weak, purposefully blocked, or spoofed has become crucial for a wide range of applications. A prime example is autonomous navigation for drones in indoor environments: to fly…
Drones are not fully trusted yet. Their reliance on radios and cameras for navigation raises safety and privacy concerns. These systems can fail, causing accidents, or be misused for unauthorized recordings. Considering recent regulations…
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology aimed at eficiently identifying and tracking goods and assets. Such identification may be performed without requiring line-of-sight alignment or physical contact between the RFID tag and…
