This is how they define the tech required "Remote ID is the ability of a UAS in flight to provide identification information that can be received by other parties".
I wonder if this definitely means the drone itself has to have an extra transmitter or is an app running on the operator's smartphone enough. In Europe people flying drones use an app that lets you "Check In" with local airspace authority if you are operating in controlled area (where I am close to 50% of airspace in 50km radius is some kind of controlled area).
If you don't want to use an app it is required to phone the area admin before flying in controlled airspace. Also it is good to have a given day's map as it shows today's low altitude military routes. One of those routes is nearby and it is not uncommon to see F16's flying at ridiculous speeds at what appears to be around 200m altitude. It is interesting that they don't show those routes on US airspace maps I saw.
