Abstract:
In an embodiment, a drone-coupled UE determines whether the drone-coupled UE is engaged in a flying state, and transmits a message to a network component of a terrestrial wireless communication subscriber network that indicates a result of the determining. The network component receives the message from the drone-coupled UE. In an embodiment, a network component of a terrestrial wireless communication subscriber network determines whether the drone-coupled UE is engaged in a flying state based on the message from the drone-coupled UE. The network component then applies protocols based on the determining.
