Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an information transmission method, device and system, and a storage medium. The method comprises: an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) sends type information to a mobility management entity (MME); and the MME receives the type information sent by the unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the type information is used for indicating the type of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

Claims (36)

1. An information transmission method, comprising:

receiving, by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), an identity request sent by a mobility management entity (MME) in a network attachment process;

in response to receiving the identity request sent by the MME, sending, by the UAV, an identity response comprising type information to the MME,

wherein the type information indicates a type of the UAV, and a supervision requirement is determined by the MME according to the type of the UAV, to enable the UAV to be controlled by the MME through the supervision requirement, and wherein the supervision requirement comprises alarming or decreasing a flight height, the type information is an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the UAV, the IMEI comprises a Type Allocation Code (TAC) used for indicating the type of the UAV, and the type of the UAV comprises at least one of: a micro UAV, a light UAV, a small UAV, a medium-sized UAV or a large UAV.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UAV accesses a cellular network through the network attachment process.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UAV implements network attachment under at least one of following three conditions:

implementing network attachment after turned on;

implementing network attachment after returning to a coverage area of a cellular network from a coverage hole of the cellular network; or

implementing network attachment after plugged with a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a correspondence between the TAC and the type of the UAV satisfies: TAC1 corresponding to the micro UAV, TAC2 corresponding to the light UAV, TAC3 corresponding to the small UAV, TAC4 corresponding to the medium-sized UAV, and TAC5 corresponding to the large UAV.

5. An information transmission method, comprising:

sending, by a mobility management entity (MME), an identity request to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in a network attachment process;

receiving, by the MME, an identity response comprising type information sent by the UAV, wherein the type information indicates a type of the UAV;

determining, by the MME, a supervision requirement according to the type of the UAV; and

controlling, by the MME, the UAV through the supervision requirement, wherein the supervision requirement comprises alarming or decreasing a flight height, the type information is an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the UAV, the IMEI comprises a Type Allocation Code (TAC) used for indicating the type of the UAV, and the type of UAV comprises at least one of: a micro UAV, a light UAV, a small UAV, a medium-sized UAV or a large UAV.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the UAV accesses a cellular network through the network attachment process.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the UAV implements network attachment under at least one of following three conditions:

the UAV implements network attachment after turned on;

the UAV implements network attachment after returning to a coverage area of a cellular network from a coverage hole of the cellular network; or

the UAV implements network attachment after plugged with a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein a correspondence between the TAC and the type of the UAV satisfies: TAC1 corresponding to the micro UAV, TAC2 corresponding to the light UAV, TAC3 corresponding to the small UAV, TAC4 corresponding to the medium-sized UAV, and TAC5 corresponding to the large UAV.

9. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), comprising:

a processor; and

a memory configured to store an instruction executable by the processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

receive an identity request sent by a mobility management entity (MME) in a network attachment process;

in response to receiving the identity request sent by the MME, send an identity response comprising type information to the MME,

wherein the type information indicates a type of the UAV, and a supervision requirement is determined by the MME according to the type of the UAV, to enable the UAV to be controlled by the MME through the supervision requirement, and wherein the supervision requirement comprises alarming or decreasing a flight height, the type information is an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the UAV, the IMEI comprises a Type Allocation Code (TAC) used for indicating the type of the UAV, and the type of the UAV comprises at least one of: a micro UAV, a light UAV, a small UAV, a medium-sized UAV or a large UAV.

10. A mobility management entity (MME) implementing the method of claim 5 , comprising:

a processor; and

a memory configured to store an instruction executable by the processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

send an identity request to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in a network attachment process;

receive an identity response comprising type information sent by the UAV, wherein the type information indicates a type of the UAV;

determine a supervision requirement according to the type of the UAV; and

control the UAV through the supervision requirement, wherein the supervision requirement comprises alarming or decreasing a flight height, the type information is an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the UAV, the IMEI comprises a Type Allocation Code (TAC) used for indicating the type of the UAV, and the type of UAV comprises at least one of: a micro UAV, a light UAV, a small UAV, a medium-sized UAV or a large UAV.
