Application of blockchain technology to5G-enabled vehicular networks: survey and futuredirections
2020
Blockchain is disrupting several sectors as it continues to grow mainstream. The attraction for Blockchain is
increasing from various application domains looking to take
advantage of its immutability, security, cost-saving, transparency
and fast processing properties. Blockchain has empowered several
sectors to upgrade their existing systems or operate an entire
system architecture shift. For instance, Blockchain has enabled
IoT systems to improve their quality of services while simultaneously ensuring their security requirements. Particularly, several
works are applying Blockchain to manage trust in 5G-enabled
autonomous vehicular systems to ensure secure vehicle authentication and handover, guarantee message integrity and provide
an irrefutable vehicle reputation record. Vehicular network
systems require proper data storage management, highly secure
transactions, and non-interference networks. The immutability,
tamper-proof, and security by design of Blockchain make it a
suitable candidate technology for 5G vehicular network systems.
We present in this paper a methodical literature analysis of the
application of Blockchain to 5G vehicular networks, architecture,
and technical aspects. We also highlight and discuss some issues
and challenges facing the application of Blockchain technology
to 5G vehicular networks
