A method for controlling the operation of an aerial user equipment, UE , in a wireless network, the method being performed by the aerial UE, the method comprising: determining whether the aerial user equipment UE is in an autonomous mode or in a non-autonomous mode; determining the flight path information of the aerial UE ; reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE , wherein when the aerial UE is in the autonomous mode, reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE in one of the case that a first reporting period expires and the case that a path deviation of the aerial UE is larger than a deviation threshold; and when the aerial UE is in the non-autonomous mode, reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE in one of the case that a second reporting period less than the first reporting period expires and the case that at least one of the flight direction and flight speed of the aerial UE changes; further comprising when the aerial UE is in the non-autonomous mode, reporting intended flight path information of the aerial UE with a time tag; wherein the intended flight path information includes at least one of the following: a starting time tag, an ending time tag, and the relevant location information of the aerial UE; a starting position, a flight direction, and velocity information of the aerial UE until receiving a command for changing at least one of the starting position, flight direction, and velocity information; and series of discrete positions with time tags. determining whether the aerial user equipment UE is in an autonomous mode or in a non-autonomous mode; determining the flight path information of the aerial UE ; reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE , wherein when the aerial UE is in the autonomous mode, reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE in one of the case that a first reporting period expires and the case that a path deviation of the aerial UE is larger than a deviation threshold; and when the aerial UE is in the non-autonomous mode, reporting to the network side the flight path information of the aerial UE in one of the case that a second reporting period less than the first reporting period expires and the case that at least one of the flight direction and flight speed of the aerial UE changes; further comprising when the aerial UE is in the non-autonomous mode, reporting intended flight path information of the aerial UE with a time tag; wherein the intended flight path information includes at least one of the following: a starting time tag, an ending time tag, and the relevant location information of the aerial UE; a starting position, a flight direction, and velocity information of the aerial UE until receiving a command for changing at least one of the starting position, flight direction, and velocity information; and series of discrete positions with time tags. a starting time tag, an ending time tag, and the relevant location information of the aerial UE; a starting position, a flight direction, and velocity information of the aerial UE until receiving a command for changing at least one of the starting position, flight direction, and velocity information; and series of discrete positions with time tags. <EOS>
