Security of 5G-V2X: Technologies, Standardization and Research Directions
Cellular-Vehicle to Everything (C-V2X) aims at resolving issues pertaining to
the traditional usability of Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle to
Vehicle (V2V) networking. Specifically, C-V2X lowers the number of entities
involved in vehicular communications and allows the inclusion of
cellular-security solutions to be applied to V2X. For this, the evolvement of
LTE-V2X is revolutionary, but it fails to handle the demands of high
throughput, ultra-high reliability, and ultra-low latency alongside its
security mechanisms. To counter this, 5G-V2X is considered as an integral
solution, which not only resolves the issues related to LTE-V2X but also
provides a function-based network setup. Several reports have been given for
the security of 5G, but none of them primarily focuses on the security of
5G-V2X. This article provides a detailed overview of 5G-V2X with a
security-based comparison to LTE-V2X. A novel Security Reflex Function
(SRF)-based architecture is proposed and several research challenges are
presented related to the security of 5G-V2X. Furthermore, the article lays out
requirements of Ultra-Dense and Ultra-Secure (UD-US) transmissions necessary
for 5G-V2X.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figures, Preprin
A New Look at Physical Layer Security, Caching, and Wireless Energy Harvesting for Heterogeneous Ultra-dense Networks
Heterogeneous ultra-dense networks enable ultra-high data rates and ultra-low
latency through the use of dense sub-6 GHz and millimeter wave (mmWave) small
cells with different antenna configurations. Existing work has widely studied
spectral and energy efficiency in such networks and shown that high spectral
and energy efficiency can be achieved. This article investigates the benefits
of heterogeneous ultra-dense network architecture from the perspectives of
three promising technologies, i.e., physical layer security, caching, and
wireless energy harvesting, and provides enthusiastic outlook towards
application of these technologies in heterogeneous ultra-dense networks. Based
on the rationale of each technology, opportunities and challenges are
identified to advance the research in this emerging network.Comment: Accepted to appear in IEEE Communications Magazin
