Abstract: |
Visible Light Communication (VLC) technology has considerable potential as a solution for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. It boasts several advantages over wireless communication technologies, including high bandwidth, low latency, and enhanced security. In the realm of data security, biometrics such as fingerprints have emerged as valuable trends for verifying the identity of communicating vehicles. The current work focuses on employing the fingerprints of platoon vehicle drivers as a secure authentication key for establishing links between vehicles. The proposed approach utilized the Gabor filter to extract relevant features from the images of drivers' fingerprints. These extracted features are then converted into binary format, enabling the encryption of data transmitted between paired vehicles within the platoon. The simulation results demonstrate a significant correlation between the transmitted and received data, underscoring the efficacy of the proposed approach |
