Abstract

In Location-Based Service (LBS), the vehicle user sends query messages, such as the nearest health centre, restaurant, etc., to the service provider for efficient and accurate service. The service provider gathers data regarding the received query, takes the service charge from the vehicle user, and provides these services efficiently and accurately. The service provider may reveal the vehicle user's privacy if the service provider is malicious. Similarly, if the vehicle user is malicious, he/she may also try to opt for the service from the service provider without paying the service charges. Therefore, vehicle users' queries and the service provider's data privacy are serious concerns in LBS. Some schemes, such as k-anonymity, cryptographic algorithms, etc., have been proposed to overcome these issues. The k-anonymity technique only offers vehicle users' query privacy. Cryptographic algorithms such as homomorphic encryption, oblivious transfer, etc., provide vehicle users' query and the service provider's data privacy at high communication and computation costs but reveal the vehicle user's identity. To overcome these problems, this work proposes an Anonymous and Linkable Ring Signcryption (ALRS) scheme for LBS in VANETs. It provides the service provider's data privacy and the vehicle user's query privacy, keeping the vehicle user's identity anonymous from the service provider. In addition, it maintains linkability (the number of times the same user requests a query) without revealing the identity of the vehicle user. Implementation and detailed results show that the ALRS scheme performed better than the current scheme regarding communication and computation costs and preserves all the privacy requirements.

用于 VANET 中基于位置服务的匿名可链接环形签名加密方案
在基于位置的服务(LBS)中,车辆用户向服务提供商发送查询信息,例如最近的医疗中心、餐厅等,以获得高效、准确的服务。服务提供商收集有关接收到的查询的数据,向车辆用户收取服务费,并高效准确地提供这些服务。如果服务提供商是恶意的,则服务提供商可能会泄露车辆用户的隐私。同样,如果车辆使用者是恶意的,他/她也可能尝试从服务提供商那里选择服务而不支付服务费。因此,车辆用户的查询和服务提供商的数据隐私在LBS中是值得关注的问题。一些方案,如k-匿名、加密算法等,已经被提出来克服这些问题。k-匿名技术只提供车辆用户的查询隐私。同态加密、遗忘传输等加密算法以较高的通信和计算成本为车辆用户提供查询和服务提供商的数据隐私,但暴露了车辆用户的身份。为了克服这些问题,本工作提出了一种用于VANETs中的LBS的匿名和可链接环签名加密(ALRS)方案。它提供了服务提供商的数据隐私和车辆用户的查询隐私,使车辆用户的身份对服务提供商保持匿名。此外,它保持了可链接性(同一用户请求查询的次数),而不会泄露车辆用户的身份。实现和详细结果表明,该方案在通信和计算成本方面优于现有方案,并保留了所有的隐私要求。

期刊介绍: Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications: Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications Channel modelling, modulating and coding Congestion Control and scalability issues Protocol design, testing and verification Routing in vehicular networks Security issues and countermeasures Deployment and field testing Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles Wireless in–car networks Data collection and dissemination methods Mobility and handover issues Safety and driver assistance applications UAV Underwater communications Autonomous cooperative driving Social networks Internet of vehicles Standardization of protocols.
