Performance Analysis of FD-NOMA-based Decentralized V2X Systems
In order to meet the requirements of massively connected devices, different quality of services (QoSs), various transmit rates and ultra-reliable and low latency communications (URLLC) in vehicle to everything (V2X) communications, we introduce a full duplex non-orthogonal multiple access (FD-NOMA)-based decentralized V2X system model. We then classify the V2X communications into two scenarios and give their exact capacity expressions. To solve the computation complicated problems of the involved exponential integral functions, we give the approximate closed-form expressions with arbitrary small errors. Numerical results indicate the validness of our derivations. Our analysis has that the accuracy of our approximate expressions is controlled by the division of π/2 in the urban and crowded scenario, and the truncation point T in the suburban and remote scenario. Numerical results manifest 1) Increasing the number of V2X device, NOMA power and Rician factor value yields better capacity performance. 2) Effect of FD-NOMA is determined by the FD self-interference and the channel noise. 3) FD-NOMA has better latency performance compared to other schemes
Performance Analysis of Decentralized V2X System with FD-NOMA
We introduce a full duplex non-orthogonal multiple access (FD-NOMA)-based decentralized vehicle to everything (V2X) system model and focus on its capacity performance analysis. In order to solve the computation complicated problems of the involved exponential integral functions and infinite factorial expressions, we give approximate closed-form expressions with controllable arbitrary small errors. We find the accuracy of our approximate expressions is controlled by the division of \frac{\pi}{2} in the urban and crowded (UC) scenario, and the truncation point T in the suburban and remote (SR) scenario. Numerical results manifest 1) Increasing the number of V2X device, NOMA power and Rician factor value yields better capacity performance. 2) Effect of FD-NOMA is determined by the FD self-interference and the channel noise. 3) FD-NOMA has better latency performance compared to other schemes

Blockchain-enabled FD-NOMA based vehicular network with Physical Layer Security
Vehicular networks are vulnerable to large scale attacks. Blockchain, implemented upon application layer, is recommended as one of the effective security and privacy solutions for vehicular networks. However, due to an increasing complexity of connected nodes, heterogeneous environment and rising threats, a robust security solution across multiple layers is required. Motivated by the Physical Layer Security (PLS) which utilizes physical layer characteristics such as channel fading to ensure reliable and confidential transmission, in this paper we analyze the impact of PLS on a blockchain-enabled vehicular network with two types of physical layer attacks, i.e., jamming and eavesdropping. Throughout the analysis, a Full Duplex Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (FD-NOMA) based vehicle-to-everything (V2X) is considered to reduce interference caused by jamming and meet 5G communication requirements. Simulation results show enhanced goodput of a blockckchain enabled vehicular network integrated with PLS as compared to the same solution without PLS
On the Design of Sidelink for Cellular V2X: A Literature Review and Outlook for Future
Connected and fully automated vehicles are expected to revolutionize our mobility in the near future on a global scale, by significantly improving road safety, traffic efficiency, and traveling experience. Enhanced vehicular applications, such as cooperative sensing and maneuvering or vehicle platooning, heavily rely on direct connectivity among vehicles, which is enabled by sidelink communications. In order to set the ground for the core contribution of this paper, we first analyze the main streams of the cellular-vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) technology evolution within the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), with focus on the sidelink air interface. Then, we provide a comprehensive survey of the related literature, which is classified and critically dissected, considering both the Long-Term Evolution-based solutions and the 5G New Radio-based latest advancements that promise substantial improvements in terms of latency and reliability. The wide literature review is used as a basis to finally identify further challenges and perspectives, which may shape the C-V2X sidelink developments in the next-generation vehicles beyond 5G

Blockchain based secure message dissemination in vehicular networks
Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) are one of the key elements in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to enable information exchange among vehicles and Roadside Units (RSUs) via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to- nfrastructure (V2I) communications. With continuously increasing number of vehicles on road, there are numerous security and privacy challenges associated with VANETs. Communication among vehicles is needed to be secure and bandwidth efficient. Also, the messages exchanged between vehicles must be authentic so as to maintain a trusted network in a privacy-preserving manner. Furthermore, a sustainable economic model is required to incentivise honest and cooperative vehicles. Traditional security and privacy solutions in centralised networks are not applicable to VANETs due to its distributed nature, heterogeneity, high mobility and low latency requirements. Meanwhile, the new development of blockchain has been attracting significant interests due to its key features including consensus to evaluate message credibility and immutable storage in distributed ledger, which provides an alternative solution to the security and privacy challenges in VANETs.
This thesis aims to present blockchain solutions for the security and privacy of VANETs meeting the stringent requirements of low latency and bandwidth-efficient message dissemination. VANETs are simulated in OMNeT++ to validate the proposed solutions. Specifically, two novel blockchain consensus algorithms have been developed for message authentication and relay selection in presence of malicious vehicles. The first employs a voting based message validation and relay selection, which reduces the failure rate in message validation by 11% as compared to reputation based consensus. The second utilises federated learning supported by blockchain as a better privacy-preserving solution, which is 65.2% faster than the first voting based solution. Both approaches include blockchain-based incentive mechanisms and game theory analysis to observe strategic behaviour of honest and malicious vehicles. To further study the privacy aspect of vehicular networks, the integration of blockchain with physical layer security is also theoretically analysed in Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communications scenarios. The integration results in 8.2 Mbps increased goodput as compared to the blockchain solution alone.
In essence, our research work shows that blockchain can offer better control and security, as compared to centralised solutions, if properly adjusted according to the application and network requirements. Thus, the proposed solutions can provide guidelines for practically feasible application of blockchain in vehicular networks
