Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enable a UE to communicate with a non-terrestrial network (NTN) with its location verified using a set of encrypted signals from a set of satellites associated with the NTN. In one aspect, a UE receives, from each satellite of a set of satellites, a set of encrypted signals and time information. The UE generates a set of time signals based on the time information for all of the set of satellites. The UE transmits the set of encrypted signals and the generated set of time signals for verifying a location of the UE. The UE communicates with an NTN based on the location of the UE being verified by the NTN to be a valid location, where the set of satellites is associated with the NTN.
