Inter-vehicle communication allows vehicles to communicate important safety and traffic information with each other. It has the potential to help avoid many vehicle collisions. However, securing vehicle communications presents challenges regarding privacy, real-time communication needs, and the large scale of vehicle networks. Effective inter-vehicle communication architectures require addressing issues such as secure routing, resilience to denial of service attacks, and balancing privacy and accountability. With further research and development, inter-vehicle communication could support applications like cooperative driving, hazard warnings, and traffic optimization to improve road safety and efficiency.

3. INTRODUCTION
What is Inter Vehicle Communication?
Communication among drivers and vehicles in Intelligent
Transportation Systems (ITS)
Communication conducted between onboard information equipment
IVC enables the service of exchange and distribution of data
4. MOTIVATION
Study shows - “About 60% roadway collisions could be avoided if the
operator of the vehicle was provided warning at least one-half second
prior to a collision”
Approximately 40,000 people are killed each year on the European
Union’s roads, with around 1.7 million people incurring critical injuries.
The annual costs associated with traffic accidents total nearly 3 percent
of the world’s gross domestic product (GDP), or roughly US$1 trillion.
Number of vehicles is increasing faster than the number of
roads, leading to frequent traffic jams.
Constraints of human drivers’ perception
Line-of-sight limitation of brake light
Large processing/forwarding delay for emergency events.

7. TERMS
EDR –
• used in vehicles to register all important parameters such as velocity, acceleration, etc.
especially during abnormal situations, such as accidents
• This data is used for reconstruction.
Forward radar-
• Used to detect any forward obstacles as far as 200 meters
Positioning System-
• Used to locate vehicles
• Accuracy can be improved by knowledge of road topology
Computing platform-
• Inputs from various components is used to generate useful information
11. KEY COMPONENTS
On-board Equipment (OBE):
human machine interface
vehicle interfaces, (to on-board networks)
Applications, memory and processing
positioning, (GPS and dead-reckoning system)
communications functions (radio, antenna, etc)
Roadside Equipment (RSE):
access “nodes” positioned along highways, at traffic intersections and
other locations
includes a DSRC radio, GPS, processor, and router to send messages
back through the IVC Network
Network:
The IVC Network interconnects the road-side RSEs, network services, and the
network end-users

13. TYPES OF COMMUNICATION
Vehicle to Vehicle Communication –
It demonstrates properties of both peer-to-peer network and mobile ad-hoc
network.
In Peer-to-peer systems participants rely on another for service rather than
solely relying on a dedicated and centralized infrastructure
A mobile ad hoc network is a collection of mobile hosts with wireless
communication capabilities forming temporary network.
Vehicle to Infrastructure Communication –
Information is available from roadside sources
uses 63 GHz band
Ex- Electronic Toll Collection (ETC)
allows for electronic payment of highway tolls
communication is traditionally via microwave or infrared techniques, more
recently through GPS technology
an electronic monetary transaction occurs between a vehicle passing through
a toll station and the toll agency
15. ACTIVE COLLISION WARNING /AVOIDANCE
SYSTEM
By continuing with the passive safety technologies, it will be difficult to
reduce crash costs
Thus people have started developing active safety features in order to
reduce costs
The introduction of automotive collision warning/ avoidance systems
represents the next significant leap in vehicle safety technology
Automotive collision warning systems try to warn drivers of an impending
collision event. Allowing driver little bit extra time to react
If the collision warning systems are built in conjunction with drive by wire
technology, then the system could try to automatically maneuver the
vehicle in order to avoid an impending collision
16. VEHICLES PARAMETER
There are two types of parameters: Static and Dynamic
Static Parameters:
The static parameter indicates the size of the vehicle and the location
of its GPS receiver within itself.
Dynamic Parameters:
The dynamic parameters are vehicle’s position (Xn,Yn), speed
acceleration, direction and the status of the brakes, steering
wheel, gas paddle, turn signal etc.
17. CLASSES OF INFORMATION

Traffic Related – number of vehicles, traffic volume, density, congestion
Passenger Related – weather related information,

21. OPEN PROBLEMS
Data Verification:- can be achieved by data correlation
mechanism but such mechanisms are in design stage
Secure Routing:- In vehicular networking messages need to be
delivered to specific areas for example:- in the case of traffic
jam queue, this can be achieved by position based routing
protocols but none of the solution is secure
DoS Resillience:- DoS and jamming problems can not be
completely solve by frequency hopping
22. CHALLENGES IN IVC
Liability Vs Privacy:- Accountability and liability of the vehicles is required
and context specific information such as coordinates, time intervals should
be possible to extract but such requirements raise privacy concerns
Real Time Communication:- Driver assistance applications are time
sensitive therefore security protocols should impose low processing
overhead
Vehicular Network Scale:- With roughly billion vehicles,
the design of a facility that provides cryptographic keys is big challenge
23. PRIVACY:-WITH VEHICULAR NETWORKS DEPLOYED,
THE COLLECTION OF VEHICLE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
FROM OVERHEAD VEHICULAR COMMUNICATIONS WILL
BECOME PARTICULARLY EASY
24. REAL TIME APPLICATIONS

six companies and three universities in order to promote
the development of inter vehicular communication
CarTALK:- Focused on developing new driver assistance systems
which are based on inter vehicle communication for safe

Network On Wheels (NOW):- The main objectives of NOW are to
solve technical key questions on the communication
protocols and data security for car to car communication
Advance Driver Assistant System In Europe (ADASE):- ADASE
project has a mission to increase the road and traffic safety in
Europe by avoiding collisions before they occur
25. APPLICATION OF IVC

These technologies can greatly enhance the infotainment, safety, comfort,
communication and convenience value of new vehicles.
As vehicles become “smarter”, security and privacy gain importance
