Traffic congestion detection using VANETUnknown Date (has links)
We propose a distributed, collaborative traffic congestion detection and dissemination system using VANET that makes efficient use of the communication channel, maintains location privacy, and provides drivers with real-time information on traffic congestions over long distances. The system uses vehicles themselves, equipped with simple inexpensive devices, as gatherers and distributors of information without the need for costly road infrastructure such as sensors, cameras or external communication equipment. Additionally, we present a flexible simulation and visualization framework we designed and developed to validate our system by showing its effectiveness in multiple scenarios and to aid in the research and development of this and future VANET applications. / by Francisco M.

Implementation of the IEEE 1609.2 WAVE Security Services StandardUnknown Date (has links)
This work presents the implementation of the the IEEE 1609.2 WAVE Security
Services Standard. This implementation provides the ability to generate a message
signature, along with the capability to verify that signature for wave short messages
transmitted over an unsecured medium. Only the original sender of the message can sign
it, allowing for the authentication of a message to be checked. As hashing is used during
the generation and verification of signatures, message integrity can be verified because a
failed signature verification is a result of a compromised message. Also provided is the
ability to encrypt and decrypt messages using AES-CCM to ensure that sensitive
information remains safe and secure from unwanted recipients. Additionally this
implementation provides a way for the 1609.2 specific data types to be encoded and
decoded for ease of message transmittance. This implementation was built to support the
Smart Drive initiative’s VANET testbed, supported by the National Science Foundation
and is intended to run on the Vehicular Multi-technology Communication Device
(VMCD) that is being developed. The VMCD runs on the embedded Linux operating
system and this implementation will reside inside of the Linux kernel. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

An Ant Inspired Dynamic Traffic Assignment for VANETs: Early Notification of Traffic Congestion and Traffic IncidentsUnknown Date (has links)
Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks (VANETs) are a subclass of Mobile Ad hoc NETworks
and represent a relatively new and very active field of research. VANETs will enable in
the near future applications that will dramatically improve roadway safety and traffic
efficiency. There is a need to increase traffic efficiency as the gap between the traveled
and the physical lane miles keeps increasing. The Dynamic Traffic Assignment problem
tries to dynamically distribute vehicles efficiently on the road network and in accordance
with their origins and destinations. We present a novel dynamic decentralized and
infrastructure-less algorithm to alleviate traffic congestions on road networks and to fill
the void left by current algorithms which are either static, centralized, or require
infrastructure. The algorithm follows an online approach that seeks stochastic user
equilibrium and assigns traffic as it evolves in real time, without prior knowledge of the traffic demand or the schedule of the cars that will enter the road network in the future.
The Reverse Online Algorithm for the Dynamic Traffic Assignment inspired by Ant
Colony Optimization for VANETs follows a metaheuristic approach that uses reports from
other vehicles to update the vehicle’s perceived view of the road network and change route
if necessary. To alleviate the broadcast storm spontaneous clusters are created around
traffic incidents and a threshold system based on the level of congestion is used to limit
the number of incidents to be reported. Simulation results for the algorithm show a great
improvement on travel time over routing based on shortest distance. As the VANET
transceivers have a limited range, that would limit messages to reach at most 1,000 meters,
we present a modified version of this algorithm that uses a rebroadcasting scheme. This
rebroadcasting scheme has been successfully tested on roadways with segments of up to
4,000 meters. This is accomplished for the case of traffic flowing in a single direction on
the roads. It is anticipated that future simulations will show further improvement when
traffic in the other direction is introduced and vehicles travelling in that direction are
allowed to use a store carry and forward mechanism. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Reliable Vehicle-to-Vehicle Weighted Localization in Vehicular NetworksUnknown Date (has links)
Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) supports wireless communication among vehicles using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and between vehicles and infrastructure using vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication. This communication can be utilized to allow the distribution of safety and non-safety messages in the network. VANET supports a wide range of applications which rely on the messages exchanged within the network. Such applications will enhance the drivers' consciousness and improve their driving experience. However, the efficiency of these applications depends on the availability of vehicles real-time location information. A number of methods have been proposed to fulfill this requirement. However, designing a V2V-based localization method is challenged by the high mobility and dynamic topology of VANET and the interference noise due to objects and buildings. Currently, vehicle localization is based on GPS technology, which is not always reliable. Therefore, utilizing V2V communication in VANET can enhance the GPS positioning. With V2V-based localization, vehicles can determine their locations by exchanging mobility data among neighboring vehicles. In this research work, we address the above challenges and design a realistic V2V-based localization method that extends the centroid localization (CL) by assigning a weight value to each neighboring vehicle. This weight value is obtained using a weighting function that utilizes the following factors: 1) link quality distance between the neighboring vehicles 2) heading information and 3) map information. We also use fuzzy logic to model neighboring vehicles' weight values. Due to the sensitivity and importance of the exchanged information, it is very critical to ensure its integrity and reliability. Therefore, in this work, we present the design and the integration of a mobility data verification component into the proposed localization method, so that only verified data from trusted neighboring vehicles are considered. We also use subjective logic to design a trust management system to evaluate the trustworthiness of neighboring vehicles based on the formulated subjective opinions. Extensive experimental work is conducted using simulation programs to evaluate the performance of the proposed methods. The results show improvement on the location accuracy for varying vehicle densities and transmission ranges as well as in the presence of malicious/untrusted neighboring vehicles. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Context-aware hybrid data dissemination in vehicular networksUnknown Date (has links)
This work presents the development of the Context-Aware Hybrid Data Dissemination
protocol for vehicular networks. The importance of developing vehicular networking data
dissemination protocols is exemplified by the recent announcement by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to enable vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication technology. With emphasis on safety, other useful applications of V2V communication include but are not limited to traffic and routing, weather, construction and road hazard alerts, as well as advertisement and entertainment. The core of V2V communication relies on the efficient dispersion of relevant data through wireless broadcast protocols for these varied applications. The challenges of vehicular networks demand an adaptive broadcast protocol capable of handling diverse applications. This research work illustrates the design of a wireless broadcast protocol that is context-aware and adaptive to vehicular environments taking into consideration vehicle density, road topology, and type of data to be disseminated. The context-aware hybrid data dissemination scheme combines store-and-forward and multi-hop broadcasts, capitalizing on the strengths of both these categories and mitigates the weaknesses to deliver data with maximum efficiency to a widest possible reach. This protocol is designed to work in both urban and highway mobility models. The behavior and performance of the hybrid data dissemination scheme is studied by varying the broadcast zone radius, aggregation ratio, data message size and frequency of the broadcast messages. Optimal parameters are determined and the protocol is then formulated to become adaptive to node density by keeping the field size constant and increasing the number of nodes. Adding message priority levels to propagate safety messages faster and farther than non-safety related messages is the next context we add to our adaptive protocol. We dynamically
set the broadcast region to use multi-hop which has lower latency to propagate
safety-related messages. Extensive simulation results have been obtained using realistic vehicular network scenarios. Results show that Context-Aware Hybrid Data Dissemination Protocol benefits from the low latency characteristics of multi-hop broadcast and low bandwidth consumption of store-and-forward. The protocol is adaptive to both urban and highway mobility models. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

An implementation of the IEEE 1609.4 wave standard for use in a vehicular networking testbedUnknown Date (has links)
We present an implementation of the IEEE WAVE (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments) 1609.4 standard, Multichannel Operation. This implementation provides concurrent access to a control channel and one or more service channels, enabling vehicles to communicate among each other on multiple service channels while
still being able to receive urgent and control information on the control channel. Also
included is functionality that provides over-the-air timing synchronization, allowing
participation in alternating channel access in the absence of a reliable time source.
Our implementation runs on embedded Linux and is built on top of IEEE 802.11p, as
well as a customized device driver. This implementation will serve as a key compo-
nent in our IEEE 1609-compliant Vehicular Multi-technology Communication Device
(VMCD) that is being developed for a VANET testbed under the Smart Drive initiative, supported by the National Science Foundation. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Certificate revocation list distribution in vehicular ad hoc networksNowatkowski, Michael E. 05 April 2010 (has links)
The objective of this research is to investigate improved methods for distributing certificate revocation lists (CRLs) in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). VANETs are a subset of mobile ad hoc networks composed of network-equipped vehicles and infrastructure points, which will allow vehicles to communicate with other vehicles and with roadside infrastructure points. While sharing some of the same limitations of mobile ad hoc networks, such as lack of infrastructure and limited communications range, VANETs have several dissimilarities that make them a much different research area. The main differences include the size of the network, the speed of the vehicles, and the network security concerns. Confidentiality, authenticity, integrity, and availability are some of the standard goals of network security. While confidentiality and authenticity at times seem in opposition to each other, VANET researchers have developed many methods for enhancing confidentiality while at the same time providing authenticity. The method agreed upon for confidentiality and authenticity by most researchers and the IEEE 1609 working group is a public key infrastructure (PKI) system. An important part of any PKI system is the revocation of certificates. The revocation process, as well as the distribution of revocation information, is an open research problem for VANETs. This research develops new methods of CRL distribution and compares them to existing methods proposed by other researchers. The new methods show improved performance in various vehicle traffic densities.

The Evaluation of GeoNetworking Forwarding in Vehicular Ad-Hoc NetworksRajendran, Rajapandiyan January 2013 (has links)
In Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), disseminating warning messages in a timely and efficient way through wireless short-range communications can save many lives and reduce traffic congestion. A geographical broadcast protocol provides data delivery to specified geographical areas, using multi-hop communications if needed. Among the main challenges for such protocols are forwarder selection and the reduction of the number of hops required to reach and cover the destination area. In this thesis we propose an efficient geographical broadcast protocol called Preferred and Contention Based Forwarding (PCBF) and evaluate it through simulations. PCBF uses a combination of contention-based forwarding and selecting preferred forwarders also found in other protocols like Emergency Message Dissemination for Vehicular Environments (EMDV). Since the preferred forwarder is allowed to immediately forward the packet (evading contention among other potential forwarders), this approach reduces end-to-end delays. Notable extensions of PCBF compared to EMDV are the use of direct negative acknowledgements in case of unnecessary rebroadcasts and the use of forwarders outside the target region. Our simulation results show that the PCBF protocol outperforms selected other protocols in terms of end-to-end delay, re-broadcast overhead and reliability in both sparse and dense networks.

Protocole de routage basé sur des passerelles mobiles pour un accès Internet dans les réseaux véhiculairesBa, Amadou Adama 04 1900 (has links)
La rapide progression des technologies sans fil au cours de ces dernières années a vu
naître de nouveaux systèmes de communication dont les réseaux véhiculaires. Ces réseaux
visent à intégrer les nouvelles technologies de l’information et de la communication dans le
domaine automobile en vue d’améliorer la sécurité et le confort sur le réseau routier. Offrir un accès Internet aux véhicules et à leurs occupants peut sans doute aider à anticiper
certains dangers sur la route tout en rendant plus agréables les déplacements à bord des véhicules. Le déploiement de ce service nécessite que des messages soient échangés entre les véhicules. Le routage constitue un élément crucial dans un réseau, car définissant la façon dont les différentes entités échangent des messages. Le routage dans les VANETS constitue un grand défi car ces derniers sont caractérisés par une forte mobilité entraînant une topologie très dynamique.
Des protocoles ont été proposés pour étendre Internet aux réseaux véhiculaires. Toutefois,
la plupart d’entre eux nécessitent un coût élevé de messages de contrôle pour
l’établissement et le maintien des communications. Ceci a pour conséquence la saturation de la bande passante entrainant ainsi une baisse de performance du réseau.
Nous proposons dans ce mémoire, un protocole de routage qui s’appuie sur des
passerelles mobiles pour étendre Internet aux réseaux véhiculaires. Le protocole prend en compte la mobilité des véhicules et la charge du réseau pour l’établissement et le maintien des routes. / The fast progression of wireless technologies has motivated the emergence of new communications system called VANETS (Vehicular Adhoc Networks). VANETS enable
vehicles on the roadway to communicate with each other and with road infrastructure using
wireless capabilities. The applications of VANETS include improving safety and comfort
on the road. For example, by providing Internet to vehicles, traveling can be safer and more comfortable. To provide Internet connectivity, messages need to be exchanged between the vehicles. However, it is hard to design an efficient routing protocol for connecting vehicles to Internet with a reasonable cost due to high mobility in VANETS.
Although, several existing routing protocols have been proposed in the open literature to
extend Internet to VANETS, they generate considerable overhead. This leads to unfairly
consumption of bandwidth decreasing network performance.
We design a routing protocol to connect vehicles to Internet through mobile gateways
with the objective to make efficient use of the network bandwidth. Indeed, the protocol
significantly reduces the communication overhead required to establish and maintain the routes relying on the mobility of the gateways and the network’s load.

Mecanismo de reputação centralizado para confiança em Redes Ad Hoc Veiculares (VANETs)Mühlbauer, Ricardo January 2015 (has links)
Orientador: Prof. Dr. João Henrique Kleinschmidt / The dissemination of wireless networks will enable the interconnection of every type of device, creating what is called the Internet of Things. In this concept, objects with great potential for the deployment of new applications are the automotive vehicles that will form mobile networks known as VANETs (Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks). These networks are particularly sensitive to information security issues, because, besides the common threats, one deliberate cybernetic attack or functional anomaly can result in traffic accidents. Due to its specific characteristics, the establishment of trust in VANET networks requires the introduction of additional not traditional measures of information security.
This MsC thesis proposes a centralized mechanism of vehicular reputation based on the concept of certified reputation. In the scheme, vehicles communicate with other network participants providing its digital certificate, which includes the reputation level safely stored by the vehicle. Decision-making mechanisms in the receiving vehicles are responsible for judging whether messages are true or false, based on the reputation of the issuers nodes. Periodically, vehicles must connect to the certification authorities and central control of traffic to update their reputation level, which is determined centrally by validating their behavior in participation and communication of events on the network.
Quantitative analysis of simulated scenarios showed that the adequate combination of the reputation mechanism with a vehicular decision mechanism presents better results than without a reputation system, considering the existence of false messages and attacks on the network. This way, the proposed system proved its effectiveness in reducing the risks of anomalous or malicious behavior in a VANET network. / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal do ABC, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia da Informação, 2015. / A disseminação das redes sem fio possibilitará a interconexão de qualquer tipo de dispositivo, criando o que se denomina de Internet das Coisas. Neste conceito, um dos objetos com grande potencial para o desenvolvimento de aplicações são os veículos automotores, que constituirão redes móveis conhecidas como VANETs (Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks). Estas redes são particularmente sensíveis às questões relacionadas à segurança da informação, pois, além das ameaças comuns, um ataque cibernético deliberado ou anomalias de funcionamento podem levar a acidentes viários. Devido às suas características particulares, o estabelecimento de confiança nas redes VANET exigirá a aplicação de medidas adicionais não tradicionais de segurança da informação.
Esta dissertação apresenta uma proposta de mecanismo centralizado de reputação veicular baseada no conceito de reputação certificada. No esquema, os veículos se comunicam com os demais participantes da rede fornecendo seu certificado digital, que inclui o nível de reputação armazenado de forma segura pelo veículo. Mecanismos de decisão nos veículos receptores são responsáveis por julgar se as mensagens são verdadeiras ou falsas, baseando-se na reputação dos nós de comunicação emitentes. Periodicamente, os veículos devem entrar em contato com as autoridades certificadoras e de controle central de tráfego para atualizar seu nível de reputação, que é determinado centralmente pela validação de seu comportamento de participação e comunicação dos eventos na rede.
A análise quantitativa de cenários simulados mostrou que a combinação adequada do mecanismo de reputação com um mecanismo de decisão veicular apresenta um total de decisões certas superior a de sistemas sem reputação, considerando a existência de mensagens falsas e ataques ao sistema. Desta forma, o sistema proposto mostrou sua eficácia em reduzir os riscos de comportamentos anômalos ou maliciosos em uma rede VANET.
