Recently, various types of aircraft are flying in the sky.Especially, Unmanned Aircraft Vehicle (UAV) called drones can operate with from aerial photography to unmanned delivery thus, utilization is very high.Drones are classified as Quad, Hexa and Octa copter depending on the number of rotor.However recently, most drone has to configure and operate the number of such three rotors and two tilt-rotors.The biggest problem of these drones is a short flying time.In general, it is possible a flying about 15~20 minutes.It is highly variable depending on wind influence, nature of the communication environment.Therefore, overall flight distance is inevitably very short.And also shooting or operational area is very limited.To be presented as a solution to this problem is the swarm flight.The swarm flight has the advantage that several drones ensure flying area and execute their mission.Therefore execution of duty is possible in the wider area.In this paper in order to solve this problem, we propose effective message authentication method between aircraft that performs the swarm flight.
