Vehicle Communication using Hash Chain-based Secure Cluster

Abstract: We introduce a hash chain-based secure cluster. Here, secure cluster refers to a set of vehicles having vehicular secrecy capacity of more than a reference value. Since vehicle communication is performed in such a secure cluster, basically secure vehicle communication can be expected. Secure hash clusters can also be expected by sharing hash chains derived from vehicle identification numbers. We are also convinced that our paper is essential for future autonomous vehicles by providing secure clustering services using MEC. In the near term, autonomous driving, our paper makes it possible to expect strong and practically safe vehicle communications.
