Vehicle-to-Vehicle communication is the key technology for achieving increased perception for automated vehicles where the communication allows virtual sensing with the use of sensors placed in other vehicles. In addition, this technology also allows recognising objects that are out-of-sight. This thesis presents a Trust System that allows a vehicle to make more reliable and robust decisions. The system evaluates the current situation and generates a Trust Index indicating the level of trust in the environment, the ego vehicle, and the other vehicles. Current research focuses on securing the communication between the vehicles themselves, but does not verify the content of the received data on a system level. The proposed Trust System evaluates the received data according to sensor accuracy, behaviour of other vehicles, and the perception of the local environment. The results show that the proposed method is capable of correctly identifying various situations and discusses how the Trust Index can be used to make more robust decisions.
