Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are described herein for paring an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a UAV-controller (UAV-C). For example, a UAV having a UAV wireless transmit/receive unit (UAV WTRU) may transmit, to an access and mobility management function (AMF), a non-access stratum (NAS) request message that includes a paring request indication and a UAV-controller (UAV-C) identification (UAV-C ID). The UAV-C ID may be carried in a paring request to an unmanned aerial system (UAS) service supplier (USS)/UAS traffic management (UTM) for paring authorization of the UAV with a UAV-C associated with the UAV-C ID. The UAV may receive, from the AMF, a NAS response message that includes an unmanned aerial system (UAS) identification (UAS ID) indicating that the UAV is paired with the UAV-C, wherein the UAS ID is assigned by the USS/UTM.
