Abstract
In Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs), trust establishment among communicating vehicles is important to be established to secure messages’ exchange and reliability. In this paper, a categorized decentralized trust management and evaluation scheme for nodes in VANETs is presented. Role-based trust and experience-based trust is integrated, while using an opinion piggybacking process when needed. Each node is evaluated individually according to its interactions during event reporting. Based on this evaluation, a node is assigned a category level (according to its trust value) and a confidence measure that determine the degree of trustworthiness of a node’s generated reports. The scheme integrates role-based trust with experience-based trust, to form a combined trust scheme, taking into account the history of the driver’s interactions with other vehicles. Case studies, scheme analysis and validation, demonstrate early malicious node detection, which leads to an efficient reporting scheme.
