Secure Positioning and Localization
Martin Strohmeier · 2023
Abstract Secure positioning and localization refer to the use of technology to accurately determine the location of an object or person in a secure and trustworthy manner. It involves GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and other wireless technologies to determine location. Several methods have been proposed to address this problem by securing the content of the signals cryptographically. Distance bounding and timed efficient stream loss-tolerant authentication are two leading examples. Furthermore, with autonomous vehicles becoming increasingly essential and utilized in all domains (land, water, air), secure and robust positioning and navigation capabilities will be crucial.
