Abstract

Vehicle ad-hoc network (VANET) technology is a basic component of the future intelligent transportation system. With the advances in modern information society, privacy issues have become important considerations. However, most routing proposals for VANETs lack privacy support, namely anonymity or pseudonymity and unlinkability aspects. This paper presents a novel privacy addressing-based anonymous communication approach for VANETs, which prevents eavesdroppers from identifying a particular vehicle by its address. The proposed scheme is a kind of end-to-end solution, so it can potentially be extended to work with many traditional routing protocols. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms previous approaches with privacy support in terms of protocol overhead and packet latency.
