Authentication systems and methods for generating flight regulations

A system, comprising:

• an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) configured to:
• broadcast a UAV identifier and one or more types of contextual information, the UAV identifier uniquely identifying the UAV from other UAVs, the one or more types of contextual information comprising at least geographical information of the UAV;
• and an authentication device configured to:
• authenticate an identity of the UAV based on the UAV identifier received from the UAV and the one or more types of contextual information to determine whether the UAV is authorized for operation;
• and
• transmit, in response to determining whether the UAV is authorized for operation, a signal to a remote controller, the signal instructing the remote controller to take a proper action to respond to a user's operation according to a result of determining whether the UAV is authorized for operation.

A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method for regulating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the method comprising:

• receiving a UAV identifier and one or more types of contextual information broadcasted by the UAV, the UAV identifier uniquely identifying the UAV from other UAVs, the one or more types of contextual information comprising at least geographical information of the UAV;
• authenticating an identity of the UAV based on the UAV identifier and the one or more types of contextual information to determine whether the UAV is authorized for operation;
• and
• transmitting, in response to determining whether the UAV is authorized for operation, a signal to a remote controller, the signal instructing the remote controller to take a proper action to respond to a user's operation according to a result of determining whether the UAV is authorized for operation.
