Abstract

Vehicular networks involve communications between automobiles and roadside infrastructures, to improve safety, traffic efficiency, and comfort. They require to establish secure and efficient means of communication among smart vehicles exploiting the advantage provided by real time data. Thanks to the flexibility of its architecture, a vehicular network is also prone to abuse by individual users and especially to cyber attacks that can have serious consequences. Hence, the assignment of communication opportunities within the network with the purpose of data injection must be carefully monitored. In this work, we develop a game theoretic model that seeks to obtain the best trade-off solution and perform strategic and dynamic decision-making on the available bandwidth assigned to the vehicles. This can be further expanded to counteracting specific types of threat, such as denial of service, or malicious node detection based on the data sent by a vehicle.
