차량 네트워크, 분산 로봇과 사이버 물리 시스템 등 mission-critical 환경에서 동작하는 서비스들은 기존 서비스에 비해 latency에 대한 요구사항이 훨씬 엄격하다. 그 중 자율주행 차량 간 통신은 급격히 부상하고 있는 애플리케이션 영역으로 수 ms 수준의 엄격한 latency 요구사항을 가진다. 802.11p나 LTE-direct standards를 이용하는 현재 시스템은 이러한 수준의 ultra-low latency를 만족하지 못한다. 현재, 전체 latency의 상당부분을 medium access가 차지하기 때문에, 이 부분의 해결을 위해서는 Layer2를 수정할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MAC layer에 초점을 맞추어 coordinator에 의한 scheduling 없이 join/leave가 자유로운 Autonomous TDMA(ATDMA)를 고안하여 scalable하면서 latency가 보장되는 MAC을 구현하였다. 또한 WAVE 프로토콜과의 비교를 통해 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하였다.

We propose vehicular spread spectrum (SS) radar robust to mutual interference using zero correlation zone (ZCZ) code. SS radar schemes have been employed for vehicular radar systems due to their outstanding correlation property. However, this superiority is based on a premise that timing among codes is completely synchronized. In the practical driving environment, timing mismatch among radar signals is inevitable because the radar signals of several vehicles are independently transmitted at each different location and each timing and thus each radar signal is received at different timing. This timing offset is the main cause of orthogonality destruction among codes and thus radar signals from other vehicles become mutual interference. In order to solve this problem, we find out the new property of ZCZ code which maintains the complete orthogonality except to timing offset corresponding to chips (pulses) of multiple of 4 and employ ZCZ code to SS radar systems. Simulation results show the proposed scheme achieve better performance compared with the conventional SS radar scheme using pseudo code or gold code.

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a practical application class of wireless ad hoc networks, which consist of moving vehicles equipped with radio communication capabilities that collaborate to form a temporary network. This paper addresses issues and protocols of multihop routing in such emerging networks in the context of safety and infotainment applications. Due to the highly dynamic mobility of vehicles, frequent link breakage and short connection time are inevitable and, thus, the routing is a challenging task and interest for many researchers and industrial community. The frequent and dynamic change of topology makes the topology-based routing unreliable but the position-based routing more effective. The position-based routing consists of the location service which maps a node id to a geo-graphical position and the forwarding scheme which selects the next hop based on geo-graphical information of the node, its neighbors and the destination. The routing techniques are further categorized into geographical forwarding, trajectory forwarding and opportunistic forwarding based on the forwarding scheme. In this paper, we first present the distinguished properties of VANETs and the challenges and intractable issues posed in designing the routing protocols, followed by the comprehensive survey of existing routing protocols. Then, the different routing protocols designed for VANETs are compared in terms of characteristics, performance and application domains.

운전자의 안전과 편의성을 높이기 위해 통신시스템과 자동차와의 융합의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 질 높은 서비스를 지원하기 위해 선 차량들 간에 정보가 신뢰성 있게 전달되어야 한다. 따라서 고속주행 환경에서는 채널이 급격하게 변하므로 채널 값을 정확히 추정할 수 있는 기법이 중요하다. 이 논문은 차량용 무선 통신 규격인 IEEE 802.11p에서 시변 채널 추정을 위해 개선된 결정지향 기법인 FADP(Frequency Averaging Data Pilot)를 제안한다. 주파수 대역에서 평균화 과정을 거치고 시간 대역에서 데이터 심벌간의 강한 상관관계를 이용하여 좀 더 정확하게 채널 추정 값을 구하였다. 평균 제곱 오차 및 비트 에러율의 관점에서 기존의 기법들과 비교분석하여 FADP의 성능을 검증하였다.

Multihop data delivery in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) suffers from the fact that vehicles are highly mobile and inter-vehicle links are frequently disconnected. In such networks, for efficient multihop routing of road safety information (e.g. road accident and emergency message) to the area of interest, reliable communication and fast delivery with minimum delay are mandatory. In this paper, we propose a multihop vehicle-to-infrastructure routing protocol named Vertex-Based Predictive Greedy Routing (VPGR), which predicts a sequence of valid vertices (or junctions) from a source vehicle to fixed infrastructure (or a roadside unit) in the area of interest and, then, forwards data to the fixed infrastructure through the sequence of vertices in urban environments. The well known predictive directional greedy routing mechanism is used for data forwarding phase in VPGR. The proposed VPGR leverages the geographic position, velocity, direction and acceleration of vehicles for both the calculation of a sequence of valid vertices and the predictive directional greedy routing. Simulation results show significant performance improvement compared to conventional routing protocols in terms of packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay and routing overhead.

The concept of trust in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is usually utilized to assess the trustworthiness of the received data as well as that of the sending entities. The quality of safety applications in VANETs largely depends on the trustworthiness of exchanged data. In this paper, we propose a self-organized distributed trust computing framework (DTCF) for VANETs to compute the trustworthiness of each vehicle, in order to filter out malicious nodes and recognize fully trusted nodes. The proposed framework is solely based on the investigation of the direct experience among vehicles without using any recommendation system. A tier-based dissemination technique for data messages is used to filter out non authentic messages and corresponding events before even going farther away from the source of the event. Extensive simulations are conducted using Omnet++/Sumo in order to investigate the efficiency of our framework and the consistency of the computed trust metrics in both urban and highway environments. Despite the high dynamics in such networks, our proposed DTCF is capable of detecting more than 85% of fully trusted vehicles, and filtering out virtually all malicious entities. The resulting average delay to detect malicious vehicles and fraudulent data is showed to be less than 1 second, and the computed trust metrics are shown to be highly consistent throughout the network.

Traffic violations such as moving while the traffic lights are red have come from a simple omission to a premeditated act. The traffic control center cannot timely monitor all the cameras installed on the roads to trace and pursue those traffic violators. Modern vehicles are equipped and controlled by several sensors in order to support monitoring and reporting those kind of behaviors which some time end up in severe causalities. However, such applications within the vehicle environment need to provide security guaranties. In this paper, we address the limitation of previous work and present a secure and privacy preserving protocol for traffic violation reporting system in vehicular cloud environment which enables the vehicles to report the traffic violators, thus the roadside clouds collect those information which can be used as evidence to pursue the traffic violators. Particularly, we provide the unlinkability security property within the proposed protocol which also offers lightweight computational overhead compared to previous protocol. We consider the concept of conditional privacy preserving authentication without pairing operations to provide security and privacy for the reporting vehicles.

천연가스는 가솔린에 비하여 에너지 밀도가 매우 낮아 천연가스 차량의 경우 약 24.8 MPa로 압축된 압축천연가스(CNG)를 이용하기 때문에 고압을 얻기 위하여 다단계 압축이 요구될 뿐 아니라 안정성에 문제가 많다. 이런 이유로 비교적 낮은 압력에서 저장할 수 있는 흡착천연가스에 관심을 갖게 되었다. 천연가스의 저장에 용이한 매질을 개발하여 3.5 MPa에서 CNG와 에너지 밀도가 유사하고, 같은 용적의 가솔린에 비하여 1/4 수준의 운전거리를 확보하는 것이 현재의 목표이다. 본 총설에서는 흡착천연가스(ANG) 저장을 위한 탄소매질의 개발현황, 매질의 특성 및 실용화를 위하여 진행되고 있는 내용을 간략하게 소개하고 몇 가지 필요한 제언을 한다.

In recent decades, the ad hoc network for vehicles has been a core network technology to provide comfort and security to drivers in vehicle environments. However, emerging applications and services require major changes in underlying network models and computing that require new road network planning. Meanwhile, blockchain widely known as one of the disruptive technologies has emerged in recent years, is experiencing rapid development and has the potential to revolutionize intelligent transport systems. Blockchain can be used to build an intelligent, secure, distributed and autonomous transport system. It allows better utilization of the infrastructure and resources of intelligent transport systems, particularly effective for crowdsourcing technology. In this paper, we proposes a vehicle network architecture based on blockchain in the smart city (Block-VN). Block-VN is a reliable and secure architecture that operates in a distributed way to build the new distributed transport management system. We are considering a new network system of vehicles, Block-VN, above them. In addition, we examine how the network of vehicles evolves with paradigms focused on networking and vehicular information. Finally, we discuss service scenarios and design principles for Block-VN.
