Security Threats and Countermeasures of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Communications

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely applied in various fields, including but not limited to military, industry, and agriculture. But UAVs also confront severe security threats, which slows down their wide application. Current research mainly focuses on the of a single UAV system, while paying little attention UAV-related communications, especially physical network layers. Thus, it becomes necessary summarize potential threats corresponding countermeasures. To this end, we study mainstream attacks communications order propose requirements. Then present comprehensive review existing countermeasures for enhancing communication both We conclude with open issues future prospects security.
