Introduce reward-based intelligent vehicles communication using blockchain
Madhusudan Singh, Shiho Kim · 2017
The Intelligent vehicle (IV) is experiencing revolutionary growth in research and industry, but it still suffers from many security vulnerabilities. Traditio nal security methods are incapable to provide secure IV communication. The major issues in IV communication are trust, data accuracy and reliability of communicatio n data in the communication channel. Blockchain technology works for the crypto currency, Bit-coin, which is recently used to build trust and reliability in peer-to-peer networks having similar topologies as IV Communication. In this paper, we introduce an Intelligent Vehicle-Trust Point (IV-TP) mechanism for IV communication among IVs using Blockchain technology. The IVs communicated data provides security and reliability using our proposed IV-TP. This IV-TP mechanism introduced in the paper provides trustworthiness for vehicles behavior, and vehicles legal and illegalaction. The introduced reward-based system is an exchange of some IV-TP among IVs, during successful communication.
