Efficient and trusted regulation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is an essential but challenging issue in the future era of the Internet of Low-altitude Intelligence, due to the difficulties in UAVs’ identity recognition and location matching, potential for falsified information reporting, etc. To address this challenging issue, in this paper, we propose a blockchain-based UAV location authentication scheme, which employs a distance bounding protocol to establish a location proof, ensuring the authenticity of UAV positions. To preserve the privacy of UAVs, anonymous certificates and zero-knowledge proof are used. The security of the proposed scheme is analyzed. Experiments demonstrate the efficiency and feasibility of the proposed scheme.
