Abstract

In this paper we introduce a new security architecture and security mechanisms for vehicular networks providing a layer-2 multi-hop authentication and credential delivery scheme between vehicles and the network operator authentication server. We present a performance analysis of the proposed solution under various vehicles and Access Points (APs) densities, showing the potential of our scheme in providing a more efficient, robust and scalable authentication and credential delivery to vehicles when compared against the classical single-hop scheme.
