Mobile communication, for example between Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), is a particularly challenging use case. The AGVs move in the industrial environment and require a connection to a central controller by means of wireless communication technologies. Most AGVs can not move without this connection. On the other hand the AGVs mobility effects the available communication channels. Therefore mobility and communication are directly linked in this use case. Common mobility and signal propagation models are not suitable to model these links and the emerging AGV behavior. In this work a new model structure for the simulation and evaluation of mobile wireless networks in the industrial context is proposed. A newly proposed mobility model is the core of this new model structure, which enables the evaluation of the communication networks effects on the mobile systems performance and behavior.","PeriodicalId":213859,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Design and Analysis of Intelligent Vehicular Networks and Applications","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116086534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prevalent approaches, such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Internet of Things (IoT) system and Artificial Intelligence (AI), have demonstrated their strength in preventing road accidents, with the support of trustworthy data. However, in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), data transmission and storage are unreliable due to various constraints such as limited physical resource and unsteady topology. Distributed schemes are widely applied in VANETs to enforce multifold protection on vehicular data. In particular, Blockchain has become a promising approach, as it implements the real-sense distributed solution with consensus algorithm and distributed ledger. To this end, we propose a novel system in this paper, which employs Blockchain technology to consolidate the traffic information sharing in VANETs and holds profound significance for intelligent applications. Our system focuses on sharing real-time visual traffic information at the frame level via Blockchain in VANETs. Integrity verification of frames based on their sequences and timestamps is imposed prior to the consensus in Blockchain, coupled with digital watermarking to protect the multimedia traffic data. Improved efficiency and reliability of sharing are achieved by the system dynamically adjusting transaction volume in terms of the frame type and number. With the fault tolerance and immutability of Blockchain, our proposal can solidly protect the traffic information sharing against vandalization in VANETs, and confidently escort the traffic with trustworthy safety guidance.","PeriodicalId":213859,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Design and Analysis of Intelligent Vehicular Networks and Applications","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128635957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These networks are temporary deployments of nodes equipped with infrastructure-less wireless communication. MANETs operate in highly dynamic conditions where nodes move at will, interferences are a constant and density is heterogeneous. Routing is a fundamental operations in MANETs. Our evaluation of existing routing protocol for MANETs shows that, while proactive routing protocols are suitable for highly dynamic networks, reactive routing protocols perform best in dense and more static scenarios. No protocol alone can systematically perform well when density is heterogeneous. We propose RoVy, a self-aware adaptive approach for routing in heterogeneous MANETs. Based on independent estimations of density and mobility, RoVy allows nodes to automatically switch between AODV, a reactive routing protocol and DSDV, a proactive protocol. Interoperability protocols support the integration of AODV and DSDV in a single heterogeneous MANET. RoVy maintains a dissemination overlay to speed-up route discovery and improves the emergence of alternative routes to destination nodes. Our simulations of the full network stack with 1,000 nodes shows that RoVy outperforms singular routing protocols in terms of performance, costs and reliability.","PeriodicalId":213859,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Design and Analysis of Intelligent Vehicular Networks and Applications","volume":"160 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121209440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to ensure the positioning performance of V2X in non-open area, this paper proposes a vehicle fusion localization method based on Channel State Information (CSI). In the proposed method, a positioning framework for on-board unit (OBU) and road-side unit (RSU) is established based on the communication characteristics of V2X. Meanwhile, the algorithms for the operation of OBU and RSU are given respectively. On this basis, the proposed method uses CSI to calculate the signal flight time, and combines with the least square method to locate the vehicle on the basis of communication equipment. To improve the reliability of CSI data analysis and solve the problem of CSI analysis under multipath propagation, the traditional optimization model is solved by a quadratic convex programming method based on algebraic optimization.","PeriodicalId":213859,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Design and Analysis of Intelligent Vehicular Networks and Applications","volume":"2 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125714120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, for video analytics applications, the multi-access edge computing (MEC) and blockchain technologies are integrated into IoV to optimize the transaction throughput as well as reducing the latency of the MEC system. Furthermore, the joint optimization problem is formulated as a Markov decision process (MDP), and the asynchronous advantage actor-critic (A3C) algorithm is adopted to solve this problem.

Autonomous vehicles and Vehicle-to-Everything technologies are at the forefront of defining the future of transportation. Enabling vehicles to connect to various services has exposed critical in-vehicle networks such as the Controller Area Network (CAN) to potential exploitation by adversaries. In its standard form, the CAN bus suffers from multiple vulnerabilities such as limited bandwidth and lack of authentication. Attacks can be initiated through physical and wireless mediums, exploiting diagnostic interfaces, Bluetooth and infotainment systems to compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data communication within vehicles. In this paper, a holistic, comprehensive, Machine Learning-Based intrusion detection system for the CAN bus is proposed to secure the critical in-vehicle network. The proposed system is modular, scalable and can be adapted to the ever-changing threat landscape of cyber vehicle attacks.

We present an open-source simulation framework for the ns-3 simulator, featuring state-of-the-art vehicular communication models, in which the mobility is managed by the SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) simulator. Unlike other simulation frameworks, where the user is mostly limited to a single communication stack, our framework unifies multiple stacks under a single open-source repository. The framework is designed to make it easier to configure the communication stacks, and to enable a fast and easy deployment of vehicular applications. It comes with the support for centralized and distributed vehicular network architectures, embedding the IEEE 802.11p, 3GPP C-V2X Mode 4 and LTE communication stacks, and with vehicular messages dissemination stacks compliant with ETSI standards. We also present two sample applications thought to show the potentiality of the framework, namely an area speed advisory and an emergency vehicle alert.","PeriodicalId":213859,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Design and Analysis of Intelligent Vehicular Networks and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129158153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
