An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a pilotless aerial vehicle which can be controlled either autonomously by onboard computers or remotely controlled by a pilot at the Ground Control Station (GCS). UAV and Ground Control Station (GCS) define a new form network, this kind of network persuade some specific characteristics as sufficient energy, network connectivity, mobility and network security. These specifications persuade difficult challenges for building a trustworthy and secure communication architecture solution. In this paper we present our new secure communication protocol taking into account the specifications of UAV network. This new architecture depends mostly on the definition of a secure protocol which provides authentication, confidentiality and integrity, in preserving network resources for effective data exchanged between UAV and GCS.
