Interference-aware uplink transmission schemes for multicell MIMO system

In this paper we consider interference-aware uplink transmission schemes for multicell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system.Unlike conventional transmission schemes without considering the interference probably caused to other cell,we jointly optimize the transceiver beamforming vectors to maximize the desired signals while removing the intercell interference.Specifically,for a two-cell system where each transmitter is equipped with two antennas,we derive the closed-form expression for the transmit scheme called coordinated beamforming (CBF) via generalized-eigen analysis.Moreover,when asymmetric interference is considered,we give a balancing beamforming (BBF) scheme where the interfering transmitter is to strike a compromise between maximizing the desired signal andminimizing the generated interference.Simulation results show that both schemes perform better than conventional schemes under different scenarios.     

Efficient and secure message authentication scheme for VANET

A new efficient identity-based message authentication scheme for VANET was proposed. The proposed scheme decreased the complexity of cryptographic operations on signature by using elliptic curve cryptosystem (ECC) to construct authentication protocol without bilinear pairing and provided the function of conditional privacy-preserving. Security analysis demonstrated that the proposed scheme satisfies all security and privacy requirements for VANET. Per-formance analysis show that compared with the most recent proposed schemes the proposed scheme decreases the com-putation cost and communication cost.     

Dynamic anonymous identity authentication (DAIA) scheme for VANET

With the development of the vehicular ad hoc network, the security and privacy are now becoming vital concerns, especially when the attacker owns more and more resources. In order to address these concerns, a dynamic anonymous identity authentication scheme is proposed using Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem and blockchain method, which guarantees the security and fast off‐line authentication for vehicle‐to‐infrastructure. Specifically, a dynamic pseudonym key is generated using tamper proof device (TPD) for off‐line authentication and anonymity when a vehicle roams among different roadside units' (RSUs) communication ranges. Even if all RSUs are compromised, vehicle's identity is still privacy. Moreover, two additional design goals are more suitable for the practical environment: (1) the reduced assumption of TPD; (2) certification authority can trace vehicle under the authorization by law.

VDNet: an infrastructure‐less UAV‐assisted sparse VANET system with vehicle location prediction

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) has been a hot topic in the past few years. Compared with vehicular networks where vehicles are densely distributed, sparse VANET have more realistic significance. The first challenge of a sparse VANET system is that the network suffers from frequent disconnections. The second challenge is to adapt the transmission route to the dynamic mobility pattern of the vehicles. Also, some infrastructural requirements are hard to meet when deploying a VANET widely. Facing these challenges, we devise an infrastructure‐less unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) assisted VANET system called V ehicle‐D rone hybrid vehicular ad hoc Net work (VDNet), which utilizes UAVs, particularly quadrotor drones, to boost vehicle‐to‐vehicle data message transmission under instructions conducted by our distributed vehicle location prediction algorithm. VDNet takes the geographic information into consideration. Vehicles in VDNet observe the location information of other vehicles to construct a transmission route and predict the location of a destination vehicle. Some vehicles in VDNet equips an on‐board UAV, which can deliver data message directly to destination, relay messages in a multi‐hop route, and collect location information while flying above the traffic. The performance evaluation shows that VDNet achieves high efficiency and low end‐to‐end delay with controlled communication overhead. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Vehicle density based multihop broadcast protocol in VANET

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), the medium access control (MAC) protocol was of crucial importance to provide time-critical multihop broadcast. Contemporary multihop broadcast protocols in VANET usually choose the farthest node in broadcast range as the forwarder to reduce the number of forwarding hops. However, it was demonstrated that the farthest forwarder may experience long contention delay in case of high vehicle density. An IEEE 802.11p-based multihop broadcast protocol vehicle density based forwarding (VDF) was proposed, which adaptively chose the forwarder according to the vehicle density. The evaluation results in safety warning and online game applications show that, VDF could shorten broadcast delay by achieving the proper trade-off between the contention delay and coverage speed.

Research on pricing game strategy for load-balancing in VANET

In vehicle Ad-hoc netwok (VANET), traffic load is often unevenly distributed among access points (APs). Such load imbalance hampers the network from fully utilizing the network capacity. To alleviate such imbalance, the paper introduces a novel pricing game model. The research scene is at the intersection when the traffic light is green. As vehicles are highly mobile and the network typology changes dynamically, the paper divides the green light time into equal slots and calculates APs’ prices with the presented pricing game in each time slot. The whole process is a repeated game model. The final equilibrium solution set is APs’ pricing strategy, and the paper claim that this equilibrium solution set can affect vehicles’ selection and ensure APs’ load-balancing. Simulation results based on a realistic vehicular traffic model demonstrate the effectiveness of the game method.
