Abstract
Vehicular communication is a promising technology that has been announced as a main use-case of the fifth-generation cellular system (5G). Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) is the vehicular communication paradigm that enables the communications and interactions between vehicles and other network entities, e.g., road-side units (RSUs). This promising technology faces many challenges related to reliability, availability and security of the exchanged data. To this end, this work aims to solve the scientific problem of building a vehicular network architecture for reliable delivery of correct and uncompromised data within the V2X concept to improve the safety of road users, using blockchain technology and mobile edge computing (MEC). The proposed work provides a formalized mathematical model of the system, taking into account the interconnection of objects and V2X information channels and an energy-efficient offloading algorithm to manage traffic offloading to the MEC server. The main applications of the blockchain and MEC technology in the developed system are discussed. Furthermore, the developed system, with the introduced sub-systems and algorithms, was evaluated over a reliable environment, for different simulation scenarios, and the obtained results are discussed.

Summary
Mobile Telecommunications-2030 (IMT-2030), has made significant contributions to the development of novel technologies and the improvement of the existing technological and technical capabilities. One of these promising networks is the intelligent transportation system (ITS) in the context of unmanned driving, automated transport and driver assistance services [1]. With the release of the fifth-generation cellular system (5G) and the current announced vision of the sixth-generation cellular system (6G), the demands for developing reliable vehicular communication systems have increased. V2X can be divided into four main types: vehicle–network iations
