RAKSH: A Blockchain Derived In-Vehicle Key Management System2026-26-0620To be published on 01/16/2026
Modern cars have advanced significantly with the rapid growth of connectivity and communication technologies. In the wake of rising cyberattacks and enforcement of regulations, implementation of cybersecurity is imperative to safeguard vehicles. The cybersecurity controls such as secure boot, secure updates, secure communication require cryptographic primitives (keys/certificates). These security features are largely dependent on robust Key Management System (KMS), as keys are the sensitive assets that must be protected throughout the lifecycle of vehicle. Several security critical applications like over-the-air and car-to-car interaction essentially needs robust KMS to protect the vehicle assets from expanding attack vector. Traditionally KMS is established centrally in a backend server. The cloud based KMS is becoming complex due to increased number of keys/certificates required to provision in a vehicle.

Virtual ECU: Development & Validation Platform2026-26-0683To be published on 01/16/2026
Vehicle software is moving towards software-centric architectures and hence software-defined vehicles. With this transition, there is a need to handle various challenges posed during development and validation. Some of the challenges include unavailability of hardware limiting the evaluation of various hardware options, board bring-up and hence leading to delays in software development targeted for the hardware, eventually leading to delayed validation cycles. To overcome the above challenges, we present in this whitepaper a virtual ECU (vECU) framework integrated with a CI/CD pipeline.

Trajectory Reconstruction at Signalized Intersections in a Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Environment2025-99-0217To be published on 12/23/2025
Vehicle trajectories encapsulate critical spatial-temporal information essential for traffic state estimation, congestion analysis, and operational parameter optimization. In a Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) environment, connected automated vehicles (CAVs) not only continuously transmit their own real-time trajectory data but also utilize onboard sensors to perceive and estimate the motion states of surrounding regular vehicles (RVs) within a defined communication range. These multi-source data streams, when integrated with fixed infrastructure-based detectors such as speed cameras at intersections, create a robust foundation for reconstructing full-sample vehicle trajectories, thereby addressing data sparsity issues caused by incomplete CAV penetration. Building upon classical car-following (CF) theory, this study introduces a novel trajectory reconstruction framework that fuses CAV-generated trajectories and infrastructure-based speed detection data.

This paper addresses these issues through the development and presentation of an embedded, offline AI-powered voice assistant. The system is designed to reduce driver distraction and enhance operational efficiency by enabling hands-free control of vehicle functions and access to critical information, irrespective of internet availability. The technical approach involves a three-tier architecture comprising an Android-based In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) unit for primary user interaction and voice processing, an Android mobile device acting as a communication bridge and processing hub, and a proprietary OBD-II dongle for CAN bus interfacing. Offline speech recognition is achieved using embedded wake word detection and speech-to-intent engines. A user-centered design methodology

Research on Track Test Method of Autonomous Driving Functions Based on V2X Technology2025-99-031012/17/2025
V2X technology enables vehicles to obtain a wider range of information and is less susceptible to environmental factors such as weather, which can to some extent compensate for the insufficient range of visibility of onboard sensors such as radar and cameras. Based on the advantages of V2X technology, some autonomous driving functions may be achieved by integrating V2X technology with vehicular intelligence technology or only by V2X technology. How to effectively test and evaluate autonomous driving functions based on V2X technology has attracted widespread attention. This paper studies the track test method of autonomous driving functions based on V2X technology from the perspective of safety. The research results of this paper can provide reference and guidance for automotive industry testing institutions to carry out test of autonomous driving functions based on V2X technology.

Cellular Energy Architecture to Secure Resilient Energy Supply for Critical Infrastructure2025-01-051611/25/2025
The introduction of renewable energy systems offers the opportunity to achieve energy self-sufficiency or autarky in addition to contributing towards carbon neutrality by reducing the dependency on energy logistics. Amidst growing geo-political conflicts and natural calamities, the scenario of energy shortage or disruption of energy logistics is a major threat, especially for Europe due to the significant reliance on import of primary energy. Achieving autarky, however, requires a distinction between energy consumers that need uninterrupted energy supply and consumers that could potentially be cut-off during energy shortages to avoid prohibitive costs resulting from oversizing the system. Critical infrastructure such as hospitals, communication systems, emergency services and key mobility nodes like fuelling stations and charging points needed to sustain the services provided by them, always need continuous energy supply. The architecture in current tools for optimising the design and

Software Radio Based ASM Signal Ranging Delay Measurement System2025-99-012111/11/2025
In contemporary society, where Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are utilised extensively, their inherent fragility gives rise to potential hazards with respect to the safety of ship navigation. In order to address this issue, the present study focuses on an ASM signal delay measurement system based on software defined radio peripherals. The system comprises two distinct components: a transmitting end and a receiving end. At the transmitting end, a signal generator, a first time-frequency synchronisation device, and a VHF transmitting antenna are employed to transmit ASM signals comprising dual Barker 13 code training sequences. At the receiving end, signals are received via software-defined radio equipment, a second time-frequency synchronisation device, a computing host, and a VHF receiving antenna. Utilising sliding correlation algorithms enables accurate time delay estimation. The present study leverages the high performance and low cost advantages of the universal

Research on Urban Traffic Congestion Optimisation Strategies Based on V2X Technology2025-99-011711/11/2025
This study investigates urban traffic congestion optimisation strategies based on V2X technology. V2X technology (Vehicles and Internet of Everything) aims to alleviate urban traffic congestion, improve access efficiency, and reduce tailpipe emissions through real-time collection and fusion of traffic data to optimise traffic signal control and path planning. The efficacy of the optimisation strategies under different V2X penetration rates is evaluated by conducting multi-factor orthogonal experiments in different typical congestion scenarios. The experimental results show that the V2X-based signal optimisation, path induction, and event response combination strategies exhibit significant optimisation effects in all three scenarios: node bottleneck, corridor congestion, and event induction. Under the condition of 100% penetration, the combined strategy reduces delay by 41.9% in the node bottleneck scenario, improves accessibility by 28.1% in the corridor congestion scenario, and
