Abstract

The described embodiments provide systems and methods for any type, usage, classification of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) policing including but limited; detection, compliance to FAA (local, state, federal and global) enforcement and various operational guidelines. The Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Enforcement (UAVE) includes but is not limited to operational and airworthiness guidance for the operation of plurality approved routes and/or route restriction, methods, procedures, Global Positioning Systems, registration (ownership), authorization, cargo and usage approval, breadcrumb trail of flight Departure(s) Procedures and Coordinates (DPCs), and Standard Arrival Procedures and Coordinates (SAPCs) and other systems. UAVE could include for example; one or more UAV and/or operators, enforcement agencies, convergence or divergent systems, CAD systems and performance criteria required for enforcement, application(s), administration, implementation and prosecution. FAA or other governmental UAVE systems could include any software, hardware UAV devices, sensors, communication transmissions and controls, operations, navigation, fining and fees, apprehension and disabling methods and technologies which aid law enforcement.

4. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include take possession of the UAV(s)

5. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include catch or destroy, re-route capture, host, land, escort a UAV

6. The invention of claim 1, herein UAVE system functions could include mark, tag or identify UAV(s)

7. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include prevent and or disable the operation or effect of UAV(s)

8. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include cut off from access, sight of UAV(s)

9. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include intercepted communication of UAV from public safety

10. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include effectively intercepted, track or follow the UAV through various segments of a UAV'"'"'s curve or route line.

11. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include measure the origin to the point at which a curve or line intersects an axis

12. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could include track UAV'"'"'s breadcrumb trail of flight Departure(s) Procedures and Coordinates (DPCs), and Standard Arrival Procedures and Coordinates (SAPCs) and other system.

13. The invention of claim 1, wherein UAVE system functions could represent a plurality of UAVE'"'"'s could be activated from various physical standby base stations.

14. A system for UAVE, the system comprising:

Communication network control system in communication with UAV(s),

a detect system can disable, disarm, apprehend, detain, capture and hold harmless UAV(s) who have violated or is suspected to violate, harm and injure citizens and endanger public safety,

wherein the UAV(s) is adapted to transmit an indication of the suspecious situation to the communication network control system, and wherein the communication network control system is adapted to, (i) confirm the indication of the suspecious situation to the UAV(s), (ii) notify law enforcement personnel of the indication of the suspecious situation, (iii) transmits an indication of the suspecious situation to one or more additional UAVE(s) in the area, (iv) transmit periodic update indications of the situation to the one or more additional UAVE(s), wherein the one or more additional UAVE(s) are UAVE(s) within a predetermined physical range of the suspecious situation indicated by the UAV, and (v) transmit an indication of the situation to one or more local UAVE in the area, the local UAVE being in the vicinity of the suspecious situation.

15. The invention of claim 14, wherein the alert mode is activated by at least one of:

a predefined command, a key press of a predefined duration, a predefined key press pattern, and an inertial movement of a predefined strength, and a secondary transmission, wherein the secondary transmission comprises;

activating an alert mode of a secondary transmission UAVE; and

transmitting, by the secondary transmission UAVE, an activation signal to the UAVE,

wherein the activation signal activates the alert mode of the UAVE;

16. The invention of claim 14, wherein the UAV further is adapted to record information related to the suspecious situation, wherein the recording of information related to the suspecious situation comprises recording at least one of audio information, video information, and location information

17. The invention of claim 14, wherein, when the alert mode is activated, the UAV is adapted to i) record information related to the suspecious situation, wherein the information includes at least one of audio information, video information, and location information, and ii) transmit the information to the communication network control system, wherein the information is recorded by communication network control system.

18. A method of UAVE, the method comprising:

a detect system can detect UAV(s) who have violated or is suspected to violate, harm and injure citizens and endanger public safety

transmitting, from the UAV, an indication of the suspicious or potential harmful situation to a communication network control system;

confirming, by the communication network control system, the indication of the suspicious or potential harmful situation to the UAV;

notifying, by the communication network control system, enforcement personnel of the indication of the suspicious or potential harmful situation; and

transmitting, by the communication network control system, an indication of the suspicious or potential harmful situation to one or more additional UAV(s) in the area,

wherein the enforcement mode comprises;

deactivating or disable one or more output devices of the UAV(s)

disarm, apprehend, detain, capture and hold harmless UAV(s) who have violated or is suspected to violate, harm and injure citizens and endanger public safety.

19. An apparatus for UAVE system, the apparatus comprising:
