Abstract

Recent years has witnessed a great progress in Vehicular Social Networks (VSNs), which is a particular class of vehicular ad hoc networks, characterized by social aspects and features, including human mobility and rational behaviors. Among various VSN applications, one of the most promising applications is the dissemination of commercial advertisement via car-to-RSU (rode side unit) and car-to-car communication. However, due to non-cooperative behavior of selfish nodes or malicious ones in the real-world scenario, such vehicular advertisement system can't be realized unless proper security and incentive mechanisms are taken into account. In this paper, the privacy concern is addressed by leveraging a PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) to provide secure incentives for cooperative nodes. The selfishness issue is solved through adopting Topology-dependent Reward Mechanisms (TDRM). Preliminary theoretical and simulation results show that, besides incentivizing individuals' participation, the proposed scheme can increase participants' reward through their active contribution and solicitation, and moreover, is robust against users' misbehaviors, especially Sybil-attack.
