An RT-cloud solution towards security in Vehicular platooning systems
Ref: CISTER-TR-240405       Publication Date: 2023

Abstract:
Vehicular platooning involves a group of vehicles traveling closely together, often in a convoy-like formation, which can lead to increased safety and fuel efficiency. However, this type of system also presents unique secure communication challenges. The data exchanged between platooning vehicles must be protected from interception and manipulation, while being readily available for all the vehicles within the platoon. The use of encryption schemes and secure communication protocols can help ensure data integrity. Moreover, the use of cloud services can assist in ensuring the availability and reliability of the communications between vehicles. In this paper, we present an RT-cloud architecture that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography and cloud services for secure and reliable vehicular platooning communications. We provide an analysis of the impact of security and cloud schemes on the quality and stability of vehicle platoons.
