Analyzing Attacks on Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC)
Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) is one of the driving applications
of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) and promises to bring more efficient and
faster transportation through cooperative behavior between vehicles. In CACC,
vehicles exchange information, which is relied on to partially automate
driving; however, this reliance on cooperation requires resilience against
attacks and other forms of misbehavior. In this paper, we propose a rigorous
attacker model and an evaluation framework for this resilience by quantifying
the attack impact, providing the necessary tools to compare controller
resilience and attack effectiveness simultaneously. Although there are
significant differences between the resilience of the three analyzed
controllers, we show that each can be attacked effectively and easily through
either jamming or data injection. Our results suggest a combination of
misbehavior detection and resilient control algorithms with graceful
degradation are necessary ingredients for secure and safe platoons.Comment: 8 pages (author version), 5 Figures, Accepted at 2017 IEEE Vehicular

Software-Defined Approach for Communication in Autonomous Transportation Systems
Autonomous driving technology offers a promising solution to reduce road accidents, traffic congestion, and fuel consumption. The management of vehicular networks is challenging as it demands mobility, location awareness, high reliability and low latency of data traffic. In this paper, we propose a novel communication architecture for vehicular network with 5G Mobile Networks and SDN technologies to support multiple core networks for autonomous vehicles and to tackle the potential challenges raised by the autonomous driving vehicles. Data requirements are evaluated for vehicular networks with respect to number of lanes and cluster size, to efficiently use the frequency and bandwidth. Also, the network latency requirements are analysed, which are mandatory constraints for all the applications where real time end-to-end communication is necessary. A test environment is also formulated to evaluate improvement in vehicular network using SDN-based approach over traditional core networks
VANET Applications: Hot Use Cases
Current challenges of car manufacturers are to make roads safe, to achieve
free flowing traffic with few congestions, and to reduce pollution by an
effective fuel use. To reach these goals, many improvements are performed
in-car, but more and more approaches rely on connected cars with communication
capabilities between cars, with an infrastructure, or with IoT devices.
Monitoring and coordinating vehicles allow then to compute intelligent ways of
transportation. Connected cars have introduced a new way of thinking cars - not
only as a mean for a driver to go from A to B, but as smart cars - a user
extension like the smartphone today. In this report, we introduce concepts and
specific vocabulary in order to classify current innovations or ideas on the
emerging topic of smart car. We present a graphical categorization showing this
evolution in function of the societal evolution. Different perspectives are
adopted: a vehicle-centric view, a vehicle-network view, and a user-centric
view; described by simple and complex use-cases and illustrated by a list of
emerging and current projects from the academic and industrial worlds. We
identified an empty space in innovation between the user and his car:
paradoxically even if they are both in interaction, they are separated through
different application uses. Future challenge is to interlace social concerns of
the user within an intelligent and efficient driving
Vehicle Communication using Secrecy Capacity
We address secure vehicle communication using secrecy capacity. In
particular, we research the relationship between secrecy capacity and various
types of parameters that determine secrecy capacity in the vehicular wireless
network. For example, we examine the relationship between vehicle speed and
secrecy capacity, the relationship between the response time and secrecy
capacity of an autonomous vehicle, and the relationship between transmission
power and secrecy capacity. In particular, the autonomous vehicle has set the
system modeling on the assumption that the speed of the vehicle is related to
the safety distance. We propose new vehicle communication to maintain a certain
level of secrecy capacity according to various parameters. As a result, we can
expect safer communication security of autonomous vehicles in 5G
communications.Comment: 17 Pages, 12 Figure
