Section: 5.6.1 Description
Content: According to clause 5.3 of the present document, airspace administration shall be able to query the UTM for identity, location, and associated information about a UAS. However, local broadcast of a UAS identity provides a backup means of ID and tracking if the network is compromised, degraded, or unavailable. If UAS were to locally broadcast their identity and other information, this would allow airspace enforcement or other authorized personnel with the appropriate equipment to discover UAS within proximity.
