1. A method comprising:

  • determining at a first system, at a first time, a location of a target associated with the first system;

    constructing a signal, data of the signal comprising (i) a unique identifier, (ii) an identifier indicative of a collision avoidance nature of the signal, and (iii) the location of the target; and

    broadcasting the signal from the first system, the broadcasting causing a second system toreceive the signal;

    compute, using the location from the signal and a velocity of the first system, and further using a location of the second system at the first time and a velocity of the second system at the first time, a likelihood of a collision between the first system and the second system; and

    send a notification from the second system about the likelihood of collision responsive to the likelihood of collision exceeding a threshold likelihood.
