Vehicle Health Monitoring and Failure Prognosis through Edge-Based Component Wear Tracking2026-01-0094To be published on 04/07/2026
Traditional vehicle maintenance has relied primarily on mileage-based schedules and periodic visual inspections, approaches that often fail to account for variations in driving conditions, component quality, and usage patterns. These conventional methods typically result in either unnecessary premature replacements or unexpected component failures, leading to increased operating costs and unplanned downtime. Reactive maintenance strategies prove particularly problematic for critical wear components like clutch assemblies, brake systems, and suspension parts where undetected degradation can cause secondary damage. This paper presents an advanced monitoring system that shifts from scheduled maintenance to actual condition-based servicing through real-time wear measurement. The solution implements a network of distributed sensors that directly track critical parameters: ultrasonic measurement of clutch plate thickness, resistive wear sensors for brake pads, linear potentiometers for

Securing the AI-Driven Vehicle: A Hardware-Based Security Framework for Scalable, Trustworthy Autonomy2026-01-0085To be published on 04/07/2026
Autonomous driving technology in modern vehicles marks a pivotal evolution in transportation, but it may also introduce system-level vulnerabilities that span from tampering with sensors and interfaces to compromising compute units and communication links. This paper proposes a unified, layered hardware security architecture for AI-equipped automated vehicles. Based on current automotive Ethernet and zonal architectures, it provides end-to-end trust using hardware interface security, accelerated-cryptography, and SRAM PUF-based key provisioning. All security primitives are anchored to a hardware root of trust, delivering cryptographic identity, secure boot enforcement, and trusted key storage across the entire vehicle lifecycle. Our architectural assumptions follow the direction ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434 and AI development mandates for next-generation SAE Level 3+ vehicles using zonal Ethernet backbones, Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), and heterogeneous compute islands (e.g., vision

Implementation and evaluation of a method to defend in-vehicle networks using SAE J1939-91C to authenticate network messages between multiple ECUs.2026-01-0092To be published on 04/07/2026
The objective of this paper is to understand the effort required to integrate the hardware and software of in-vehicle cybersecurity systems. The in-vehicle cybersecurity method discussed is the SAE J1939-91C, which involves Network formation, Rekeying, and secure Message Exchange between Electronic Control Units (ECUs). The SAE J1939-91C network security protocol operates over a CAN-FD network to perform necessary cryptographic operations and key generation. To evaluate the method, test vectors were created to validate SAE J1939-91C key generations and cryptographic operations on the simulated ECU in-vehicle network system hardware. The evaluation results provide a benchmark for network system performance that can be used in a system test bench to assess compliance with the SAE J1939-91C standard and to test the standard's effectiveness in ambiguous edge cases. In the future, this benchmark could be utilized in "Plugtests" to assign test scores to non-uniform SAE J1939-91C

Smart Charge Port Housing with Integrated Single Shaft Self-Locking Mechanism for Electric Vehicles2026-26-05931/16/2026
The invention tackles the main drawback of traditional electric vehicle charge ports which use Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) communication intensively and tend to have separate actuators to fulfill the locking function and requirements. These existing systems do not only limit autonomous operation of the charging lid in ignition-off condition but they also add mechanical complexity and packaging space, as well. To overcome these limitations, this research work introduces a Smart Charge Port Housing (CPH), which combines a rotary actuator with an onboard microcontroller and single shaft self-locking device, which allows intelligent and autonomous control of the flaps without relying on vehicle wide control networks. The actuator can remember the last position that the charging lid was in so it can be operated even while the VCU is in the inactive state. The integrated self-locking functionality is achieved by using a specially designed hinge shaft that allows a certain free play for

Dynamic Diagnostic Controller Architecture for Scalable and Adaptive Zonal Based Vehicle Platforms2026-26-06891/16/2026
The rapid evolution of in-vehicle electronic systems toward zonal based architectures introduces a new layer of complexity in automotive diagnostics. Traditional architectures, built on Controller Area Network (CAN) and Local Interconnect Network (LIN) protocols, operate on a uniform Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), enabling simplified and consistent diagnostic workflows across Electronic Control Units (ECUs). However, next-generation platforms must accommodate diverse communication protocols (e.g., CAN, LIN, DoIP, SOME/IP) and heterogeneous operating systems (e.g., RTOS, Linux, QNX), resulting in fragmented and inflexible diagnostic processes. This paper presents a Diagnostic controller that addresses these challenges by enabling unified, scalable, and adaptive diagnostic capabilities across modern vehicle platforms. The proposed system consolidates protocol handling at the application level, abstracts diagnostic complexities, and allows cross-platform communication through

Development of a Seamless Selectively Elevated Fabric Switch for Intuitive and Sustainable Automotive Interior Interfaces2026-26-05961/16/2026
This technology solves a long-standing ergonomic and aesthetic problem in automotive and consumer interface design, as the use of mechanical switches disrupts the clean look of modern interiors and tends to attract dust and wear. Currently available technologies, such as capacitive touch buttons and mechanical push switches, do not provide the corresponding tactile feedback or clear indication of touch, and usually contain visible openings that interrupt the design flow. Moreover, traditional switches are made up of multiple built-in components, which results in complicated construction and difficult maintenance. To address these drawbacks, we propose a Seamlessly Integrated, Selectively Elevated Fabric Switch that remains flush with the surface when not in use and automatically rises to form a tactile interface when required. The system is a multi-layer construction consisting of an outer fabric upholstery layer, a tactile actuation membrane, and a smart electromagnetic actuator layer

AI-Empowered Lightweight In-Vehicle Network Security Mechanisms: From Cryptographic Algorithms to Collaborative Defense Architectures2025-99-013211/11/2025
With the rapid development of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) and cyber-physical systems (CPS), connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) have also developed rapidly. However, at the same time, in-vehicle networks also face more security challenges, mainly in terms of resource constraints, dynamic attacks, protocol heterogeneity, and high real-time requirements. Firstly, the trade-offs between lightweight encryption primitives and their software and hardware collaborative design in terms of performance, resource overhead, and security strength are analyzed. Secondly, the resource efficiency of AI-based intrusion detection system (IDS) is evaluated at the edge. Finally, we propose a dynamic adaptive collaborative defense framework (DACDF), which integrates federated learning with dynamic weight distillation, blockchain authentication with lightweight verifiable delay function (Light-VDF) and cross-domain IDS with hierarchical attention feature fusion to deal with collaborative attacks in resource

Improving Speed Trajectory Optimization for Electric Vehicles with Pre-Calculated Energy Maps and Dynamic Profile Discretization2025-01-03187/2/2025
Ongoing research and development in the field of electric vehicles (EVs) have resulted in a continuous expansion of their range. Additionally, advancements in vehicle connectivity have created new opportunities for intelligent driving assistance and energy optimization, particularly through the use of cloud data. However, the integration of eco-driving assistance with numerical optimization of speed trajectories remains challenging due to the high computational demands of these methods. To address this challenge and make such a system feasible for integration into vehicle systems, the computational effort required for an optimized driving trajectory must be minimized. This paper presents a method to accelerate speed trajectory optimization using pre-calculated energy and time consumption maps. For this purpose, a dynamic discretization of the anticipated driving profile is applied. Initial results show a substantial reduction in computation time, varying with different scenarios

A Time-Aware Shaper-Based Method for Addressing Traffic Bursts and Out-of-Order Induced by IEEE 802.1CB in In-Vehicle Networks2025-01-80794/1/2025
The trends of intelligence and connectivity are continuously driving innovation in automotive technology. With the deployment of more safety-critical applications, the demand for communication reliability in in-vehicle networks (IVNs) has increased significantly. As a result, Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standards have been adopted in the automotive domain to ensure highly reliable and real-time data transmission. IEEE 802.1CB is one of the TSN standards that proposes a Frame Replication and Elimination for Reliability (FRER) mechanism. With FRER, streams requiring reliable transmission are duplicated and sent over disjoint paths in the network. FRER enhances reliability without sacrificing real-time data transmission through redundancy in both temporal and spatial dimensions, in contrast to the acknowledgment and retransmission mechanisms used in traditional Ethernet. However, previous studies have demonstrated that, under specific conditions, FRER can lead to traffic bursts and

Designing Software for SAE J1939 ECUs to Improve Cybersecurity2025-01-80824/1/2025
SAE J1939 is a CAN-based standard used for connecting various ECUs together within a vehicle. There are also some related protocols sharing many of the features of SAE J1939 across other industries including ISO11783, RVC and NMEA 2000. The standard has enabled the easy integration of electronic devices into a vehicle. However, as with all CAN-based protocols, several vulnerabilities to cyberattacks have been identified and are discussed in this paper. Many are at the CAN-level, whilst others are in common with those protocols from the SAE J1939 family of protocols. This paper reviews the known vulnerabilities that have been identified with the SAE J1939 protocol at CAN and J1939-levels, along with proposed mitigation strategies that can be implemented in software. At the CAN-level, the weaknesses include ways to spoof the network by exploiting parts of the protocol. Denial of Service is also possible at the CAN-level. At the SAE J1939-level, weaknesses include Denial of Service type

In-Vehicle Network Anomaly Detection Based on a Graph Attention Network12-08-04-00341/10/2025
The increased connectivity of vehicles expands the attack surface of in-vehicle networks, enabling attackers to infiltrate through external interfaces and inject malicious traffic. These malicious flows often contain anomalous semantic information, potentially leading to misleading control instructions or erroneous decisions. While most semantic-based anomaly detection methods for in-vehicle networks focus on extracting semantic context, they often overlook interactions and associations between multiple semantics, resulting in a high false positive rate (FPR). To address these challenges, the Adaptive Structure Graph Attention Network Model (AS-GAT) is proposed for in-vehicle network anomaly detection. Our approach combines a semantic extractor with a continuously updated graph structure learning method based on attention weight similarity constraints. The semantic extractor identifies semantic features within messages, while the graph structure learning module adaptively updates the

A Fuzz Testing Method Based on DDPM for Intelligent Connected Vehicles CAN Communication2024-01-704412/13/2024
Modern vehicles are increasingly integrating electronic control units (ECUs), enhancing their intelligence but also amplifying potential security threats. Vehicle network security testing is crucial for ensuring the safety of passengers and vehicles. ECUs communicate via the in-vehicle network, adhering to the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus protocol. Due to its exposed interfaces, lack of data encryption, and absence of identity authentication, the CAN network is susceptible to exploitation by attackers. Fuzz testing is a critical technique for uncovering vulnerabilities in CAN network. However, existing fuzz testing methods primarily generate message randomly, lacking learning from the data, which results in numerous ineffective test cases, affecting the efficiency of fuzz testing. To improve the effectiveness and specificity of testing, understanding of the CAN message format is essential. However, the communication matrix of CAN messages is proprietary to the Original Equipment

Research on Automated Testing of In-Vehicle Time-Sensitive Network Time Synchronization Mechanism12-07-04-00278/21/2024
With the development of automotive intelligence and networking, the communication architecture of automotive network is evolving toward Ethernet. To improve the real-time performance and reliability of data transmission in traditional Ethernet, time-sensitive network (TSN) has become the development direction of next-generation of automotive networks. The real-time advantage of TSN is based on accurate time synchronization. Therefore, a reliable time synchronization mechanism has become one of the key technologies for the application of automotive Ethernet technology. The protocol used to achieve accurate time synchronization in TSN is IEEE 802.1AS. This protocol defines a time synchronization mechanism suitable for automotive Ethernet. Through the master clock selection algorithm, peer link delay measurement, and clock synchronization and calibration mechanism, the time of each node in the vehicle network is synchronized to a reference master clock.

Engineering Autonomous Mobility: Wired and Wireless CAN Bus Design Principles14-14-01-00027/15/2024
The controller area network (CAN) bus, the prevailing standard for in-vehicle networking (IVN), has been used for more than four decades, despite its simple architecture, to establish communications between electronic control units (ECUs). Weight, maintenance overheads, improved flexibility, and wiring complexity escalate as the quantity of ECUs rises, especially for high-demand autonomous vehicles (AVs). The primary objective of this study is to examine and discuss the significant challenges that arise during the migration from a wired CAN to a wireless CAN (WCAN). Suggested remedies include changing the configuration of the conventional ECU, creating a hidden wireless communication domain for each AV, and developing a plan to counteract the jamming signals. The simulation of the proposed WCAN was done using MATLAB and validated using OPNET analysis. The results showed that the packet loss of the eavesdropping electronic control unit ranged from 63% to 100%. Anti-jamming results show

Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) and their productization are a major focus of the automotive and mobility industries as a whole. However, despite significant investments in this technology, CAVs are still at risk of collisions, particularly in unforeseen circumstances or “edge cases.” It is also critical to ensure that redundant environmental data are available to provide additional information for the autonomous driving software stack in case of emergencies. Additionally, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies can be included in discussions on safer autonomous driving design. Recently, there has been a slight increase in interest in the use of responder-to-vehicle (R2V) technology for emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars. R2V technology allows for the exchange of information between different types of responder vehicles, including CAVs.

A new industry-first open platform for developing the software-defined vehicle (SDV) combines processing, vehicle networking and system power management with integrated software. NXP Semiconductors' new S32 CoreRide Platform was designed to run “multiple time-critical, safety-critical, security-critical applications in parallel,” Henri Ardevol, executive vice president and general manager of Automotive Embedded Systems for NXP Semiconductors, told SAE Media. NXP's new foundation platform for SDVs differs from the traditional approach of using multiple electronic control units (ECUs), each designed to handle specific vehicle system control tasks. Since each unit requires its own integration work, the integration workload exponentially increases with each additional ECU on a vehicle.

A Zero Trust Architecture for Automotive Networks2024-01-27934/9/2024
Since the early 1990’s, commercial vehicles have suffered from repeated vulnerability exploitations that resulted in a need for improved automotive cybersecurity. This paper outlines the strategies and challenges of implementing an automotive Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) to secure intra-vehicle networks. Zero Trust (ZT) originated as an Information Technology (IT) principle of “never trust, always verify”; it is the concept that a network must never assume assets can be trusted regardless of their ownership or network location. This research focused on drastically improving security of the cyber-physical vehicle network, with minimal performance impact measured as timing, bandwidth, and processing power. The automotive ZTA was tested using a software-in-the-loop vehicle simulation paired with resource constrained hardware that closely emulated a production vehicle network. For example, the vehicle’s Advanced Gateway electronic control unit (ECU) is utilized to enforce cyber policy

Security Requirements for Vehicle Security Gateways2024-01-28064/9/2024
The NMFTA’s Vehicle Cybersecurity Requirements Woking Group (VCRWG), comprised of fleets, OEMs and cybersecurity experts, has worked the past few years to produce security requirements for Vehicle Network Gateways. Vehicle Network Gateways play an important role in vehicle cybersecurity – they are the component responsible for assuring vehicle network operations in the presence of untrustworthy devices on the aftermarket or diagnostics connectors. This paper offers security requirements for these gateways in design, implementation and operation. The requirements are specified at levels of abstraction applicable to all vehicle networks down to CAN networks specifically. These requirements were captured using the https://github.com/strictdoc-project/strictdoc requirements management tool and will be made available also as a ReqIF format along with the paper at https://github.com/nmfta-repo/vcr-experiment.

Structural Validation and Correlation of Inverter Gasket2024-01-27444/9/2024
Inverter is the power electronics component that drives the electrical motor of the electrical driven compressor (EDC) and communicates with the car network. The main function of the inverter is to convert the direct current (DC) voltage of the car battery into alternating current (AC) voltage, which is used to drive the three-phase electric motor. In recent days, inverters are present in all automotive products due to electrification. Inverter contains a printed circuit board (PCB) and electronic components, which are mounted inside a mechanical housing and enclosed by a protective cover. The performance of the electrical drive depends upon the functioning of the inverter. There is a strong demand from the customer to withstand the harsh environmental and testing conditions during its lifetime such as leakage, dust, vibration, thermal tests etc. The failure of the inverter leads to malfunction of the product, hence proper sealing and validation is necessary for inverters to protect

SAE J1939 Network ComplianceJ1939/82_202312 (Current)12/14/2023
SAE J1939-82 compliance describes the compliance tests and procedures to verify an SAE J1939 electronic control unit (ECU) operates correctly on a SAE J1939 network. The purpose of these compliance procedures is to generate one or more test documents that outline the tests needed to assure that an ECU that is designed to operate as a node on a SAE J1939 network would do so correctly. SAE does not certify devices and these tests and their results do not constitute endorsement by SAE of any particular ECU. These tests are presented to allow testing of an ECU to determine self-compliance by the manufacturer of an ECU. The manufacturer can use its record of what procedures were run successfully to show the level of compliance with SAE J1939.
