Abstract:Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication uses wireless technology to send and receive messages with surrounding vehicles. V2V communication increases highway safety through precollision warnings and provides convenience, such as information on traffic congestion. It is becoming standard in the automotive trade to install equipment on new vehicles that allow V2V communication. One concern in wireless communication is the increasing potential for unauthorized intrusions or cyberattacks, along with breech of personal privacy. The Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA’s) Exploratory Advanced Research (EAR) Program is supporting a project to research and develop software that increases V2V security by improving upon the current “handshake” protocols for authenticating vehicle identification, along with maintaining security during message transportation. Researchers at the New Jersey Institute of Technology are conducting the research project, “Decentralized Vehicle Credential Management System Based on Consortium Blockchain."
