Embodiment Construction

[0023] The following detailed description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the invention or the application and uses of the invention. Furthermore, there is no intention to be bound by any theory presented in the preceding background of the invention or the following detailed description. It is an object of embodiments of the present invention to propose a real-time mission-critical software platform to control one or more unmanned vehicles over a dedicated Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. The message sending device will generate a session key (SK1) that is generated from the ID of the associated drone (such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) ID) and a passphrase of unique information associated with the communication session Yes, the unique information associated with the communication session is, for example, the information identifying the UAV's current location (ie location ID) generated by a novel key generation function (KGF). After a handsh...

Abstract

A heartbeat protocol communication method for an unmanned vehicle system, a method for secure hybrid cryptographic communication, and a method for encrypted communication during one or more communication sessions with a device are provided. The unmanned vehicle system includes an unmanned vehicle and a control platform and the method includes the unmanned vehicle transmitting heartbeat data at regular periodic predetermined time intervals, the heartbeat data comprising keep alive application data comprising real-time information pertinent to the unmanned vehicle and / or the control platform determining at regular periodic predetermined time intervals whether heartbeat data transmitted by the unmanned vehicle is received and the control platform transmitting an acknowledgement response to the unmanned vehicle each time the heartbeat data is received at a regular periodic predetermined time interval. The method further includes the control platform transmitting a heartbeat failure alert to the unmanned vehicle in response to determining no heartbeat data is received from the unmanned vehicle for a predetermined number of the regular periodic predetermined time intervals.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to communication systems, and more particularly to methods and apparatus for communicating using a secure heartbeat protocol. Background technique [0002] Autonomous systems have been developed to handle a variety of different tasks. In many such systems, the functional element is one or more unmanned vehicles, such as robots, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or unmanned vehicles (USVs). Such unmanned vehicles can be controlled by a central command platform with data and command communication capabilities. This communication is usually achieved by integrating a transceiver into the drone as a communication module. Thus, the UAV can send safety heartbeat messages, live geolocation data (i.e. GPS position data), video streaming data, etc. to the central platform and can receive commands, safety heartbeat responses / acknowledgments from the central platform to control the UAV . [0003] However, in today's world...
