Position Verification in Multi-hop Vehicular Networks

Abstract

Inter-vehicle communication is an emerging field of research which focuses on different ways of increasing safety and efficiency in future intelligent highways. However, the security in these inter vehicular communication is a major issue. Since the vehicular network does not have a fixed infrastructure, developing a security scheme in a highly dynamically changing environment is a major challenge. In this paper we are proposing two algorithms for verifying the position information claimed by other vehicles in a multi-hop vehicular network.
