文摘Internet of Vehicles(IoV)is an evolution of the Internet of Things(IoT)to improve the capabilities of vehicular ad-hoc networks(VANETs)in intelligence transport systems.The network topology in IoV paradigm is highly dynamic.Clustering is one of the promising solutions to maintain the route stability in the dynamic network.However,existing algorithms consume a considerable amount of time in the cluster head(CH)selection process.Thus,this study proposes a mobility aware dynamic clustering-based routing(MADCR)protocol in IoV to maximize the lifespan of networks and reduce the end-to-end delay of vehicles.The MADCR protocol consists of cluster formation and CH selection processes.A cluster is formed on the basis of Euclidean distance.The CH is then chosen using the mayfly optimization algorithm(MOA).The CH subsequently receives vehicle data and forwards such data to the Road Side Unit(RSU).The performance of the MADCR protocol is compared with that ofAnt Colony Optimization(ACO),Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization(CLPSO),and Clustering Algorithm for Internet of Vehicles based on Dragonfly Optimizer(CAVDO).The proposed MADCR protocol decreases the end-toend delay by 5–80 ms and increases the packet delivery ratio by 5%–15%.

文摘Data sharing in Internet of Vehicles(IoV)makes it possible to provide personalized services for users by service providers in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).As IoV is a multi-user mobile scenario,the reliability and efficiency of data sharing need to be further enhanced.Federated learning allows the server to exchange parameters without obtaining private data from clients so that the privacy is protected.Broad learning system is a novel artificial intelligence technology that can improve training efficiency of data set.Thus,we propose a federated bidirectional connection broad learning scheme(FeBBLS)to solve the data sharing issues.Firstly,we adopt the bidirectional connection broad learning system(BiBLS)model to train data set in vehicular nodes.The server aggregates the collected parameters of BiBLS from vehicular nodes through the federated broad learning system(FedBLS)algorithm.Moreover,we propose a clustering FedBLS algorithm to offload the data sharing into clusters for improving the aggregation capability of the model.Some simulation results show our scheme can improve the efficiency and prediction accuracy of data sharing and protect the privacy of data sharing.

文摘Data sharing technology in Internet of Vehicles(Io V)has attracted great research interest with the goal of realizing intelligent transportation and traffic management.Meanwhile,the main concerns have been raised about the security and privacy of vehicle data.The mobility and real-time characteristics of vehicle data make data sharing more difficult in Io V.The emergence of blockchain and federated learning brings new directions.In this paper,a data-sharing model that combines blockchain and federated learning is proposed to solve the security and privacy problems of data sharing in Io V.First,we use federated learning to share data instead of exposing actual data and propose an adaptive differential privacy scheme to further balance the privacy and availability of data.Then,we integrate the verification scheme into the consensus process,so that the consensus computation can filter out low-quality models.Experimental data shows that our data-sharing model can better balance the relationship between data availability and privacy,and also has enhanced security.

文摘Social Internet of Vehicles(SIoV)falls under the umbrella of social Internet of Things(IoT),where vehicles are socially connected to other vehicles and roadside units that can reliably share information and services with other social entities by leveraging the capabilities of 5G technology,which brings new opportunities and challenges,e.g.,collaborative power trading can address the mileage anxiety of electric vehicles.However,it relies on a trusted central party for scheduling,which introduces performance bottlenecks and cannot be set up in a distributed network,in addition,the lack of transparency in state-of-the-art Vehicle-to-Vehicle(V2V)power trading schemes can introduce further trust issues.In this paper,we propose a blockchain-based trustworthy collaborative power trading scheme for 5G-enabled social vehicular networks that uses a distributed market mechanism to introduce trusted power trading and avoids the dependence on a centralized dispatch center.Based on the game theory,we design the pricing and trading matching mechanism for V2V power trading to obtain maximum social welfare.We use blockchain to record power trading data for trusted pricing and use smart contracts for transaction matching.The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in improving social welfare and reducing the load on the grid.

文摘In recent years,with the continuous advancement of the intelligent process of the Internet of Vehicles(IoV),the problem of privacy leakage in IoV has become increasingly prominent.The research on the privacy protection of the IoV has become the focus of the society.This paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the existing location privacy protection system structure and algorithms,proposes a privacy protection system structure based on untrusted data collection server,and designs a vehicle location acquisition algorithm based on a local differential privacy and game model.The algorithm first meshes the road network space.Then,the dynamic game model is introduced into the game user location privacy protection model and the attacker location semantic inference model,thereby minimizing the possibility of exposing the regional semantic privacy of the k-location set while maximizing the availability of the service.On this basis,a statistical method is designed,which satisfies the local differential privacy of k-location sets and obtains unbiased estimation of traffic density in different regions.Finally,this paper verifies the algorithm based on the data set of mobile vehicles in Shanghai.The experimental results show that the algorithm can guarantee the user’s location privacy and location semantic privacy while satisfying the service quality requirements,and provide better privacy protection and service for the users of the IoV.

文摘Cognitive Internet of Vehicles(CIoV)can improve spectrum utilization by accessing the spectrum licensed to primary user(PU)under the premise of not disturbing the PU’s transmissions.However,the traditional static spectrum access makes the CIoV unable to adapt to the various spectrum environments.In this paper,a reinforcement learning based dynamic spectrum access scheme is proposed to improve the transmission performance of the CIoV in the licensed spectrum,and avoid causing harmful interference to the PU.The frame structure of the CIoV is separated into sensing period and access period,whereby the CIoV can optimize the transmission parameters in the access period according to the spectrum decisions in the sensing period.Considering both detection probability and false alarm probability,a Q-learning based spectrum access algorithm is proposed for the CIoV to intelligently select the optimal channel,bandwidth and transmit power under the dynamic spectrum states and various spectrum sensing performance.The simulations have shown that compared with the traditional non-learning spectrum access algorithm,the proposed Q-learning algorithm can effectively improve the spectral efficiency and throughput of the CIoV as well as decrease the interference power to the PU.

文摘With the rapid advancement of Internet of Vehicles(IoV)technology,the demands for real-time navigation,advanced driver-assistance systems(ADAS),vehicle-to-vehicle(V2V)and vehicle-to-infrastructure(V2I)communications,and multimedia entertainment systems have made in-vehicle applications increasingly computingintensive and delay-sensitive.These applications require significant computing resources,which can overwhelm the limited computing capabilities of vehicle terminals despite advancements in computing hardware due to the complexity of tasks,energy consumption,and cost constraints.To address this issue in IoV-based edge computing,particularly in scenarios where available computing resources in vehicles are scarce,a multi-master and multi-slave double-layer game model is proposed,which is based on task offloading and pricing strategies.The establishment of Nash equilibrium of the game is proven,and a distributed artificial bee colonies algorithm is employed to achieve game equilibrium.Our proposed solution addresses these bottlenecks by leveraging a game-theoretic approach for task offloading and resource allocation in mobile edge computing(MEC)-enabled IoV environments.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms existing solutions in terms of convergence speed and system utility.Specifically,the total revenue achieved by our scheme surpasses other algorithms by at least 8.98%.

文摘High-efficiency and low-cost knowledge sharing can improve the decision-making ability of autonomous vehicles by mining knowledge from the Internet of Vehicles(IoVs).However,it is challenging to ensure high efficiency of local data learning models while preventing privacy leakage in a high mobility environment.In order to protect data privacy and improve data learning efficiency in knowledge sharing,we propose an asynchronous federated broad learning(FBL)framework that integrates broad learning(BL)into federated learning(FL).In FBL,we design a broad fully connected model(BFCM)as a local model for training client data.To enhance the wireless channel quality for knowledge sharing and reduce the communication and computation cost of participating clients,we construct a joint resource allocation and reconfigurable intelligent surface(RIS)configuration optimization framework for FBL.The problem is decoupled into two convex subproblems.Aiming to improve the resource scheduling efficiency in FBL,a double Davidon–Fletcher–Powell(DDFP)algorithm is presented to solve the time slot allocation and RIS configuration problem.Based on the results of resource scheduling,we design a reward-allocation algorithm based on federated incentive learning(FIL)in FBL to compensate clients for their costs.The simulation results show that the proposed FBL framework achieves better performance than the comparison models in terms of efficiency,accuracy,and cost for knowledge sharing in the IoV.

文摘Internet of Vehicles(henceforth called IoV) is a public network system and high-value target for intrusions that may cause efficiency issues, privacy leakages or even physical damage. Conventional intrusion detection methods are normally designed for the Internet infrastructures which cannot directly apply in the context of IoV. This work proposes an FPGA based intrusion detection method that can not only achieve real-time scanning performance but also be applied in vehicular environment. We evaluate our scheme on a Xilinx FPGA based platform. Experiments show that the proposed system can achieve a throughput of more than 39 Gbps on existing FPGA platform which is about 15% higher than state-of-the-art techniques,and the total power consumption for the prototype is about 7.5 w. Moreover, the processing latency of the prototype is about 4 us and is about one sixtieth part of the popular software IDS systems.

文摘The Internet of Vehicles(IoV)is a networking paradigm related to the intercommunication of vehicles using a network.In a dynamic network,one of the key challenges in IoV is traffic management under increasing vehicles to avoid congestion.Therefore,optimal path selection to route traffic between the origin and destination is vital.This research proposed a realistic strategy to reduce traffic management service response time by enabling real-time content distribution in IoV systems using heterogeneous network access.Firstly,this work proposed a novel use of the Ant Colony Optimization(ACO)algorithm and formulated the path planning optimization problem as an Integer Linear Program(ILP).This integrates the future estimation metric to predict the future arrivals of the vehicles,searching the optimal routes.Considering the mobile nature of IOV,fuzzy logic is used for congestion level estimation along with the ACO to determine the optimal path.The model results indicate that the suggested scheme outperforms the existing state-of-the-art methods by identifying the shortest and most cost-effective path.Thus,this work strongly supports its use in applications having stringent Quality of Service(QoS)requirements for the vehicles.

文摘Internet of Vehicles(IoV)applications integrating with edge com-puting will significantly drive the growth of IoV.However,the contradiction between the high-speed mobility of vehicles,the delay sensitivity of corre-sponding IoV applications and the limited coverage and resource capacity of distributed edge servers will pose challenges to the service continuity and stability of IoV applications.IoV application migration is a promising solution that can be supported by application containerization,a technology for seamless cross-edge-server application migration without user perception.Therefore,this paper proposes the container-based IoV edge application migration mechanism,consisting of three parts.The first is the migration trigger determination algorithm for cross-border migration and service degra-dation migration,respectively,based on trajectory prediction and traffic awareness to improve the determination accuracy.The second is the migration target decision calculation model for minimizing the average migration time and maximizing the average service time to reduce migration times and improve the stability and adaptability of migration decisions.The third is the migration decision algorithm based on the improved artificial bee colony algorithm to avoid local optimal migration decisions.Simulation results show that the proposed migration mechanism can reduce migration times,reduce average migration time,improve average service time and enhance the stability and adaptability of IoV application services.
