Abstract

The explosive development of Intelligent Vehicles (IVs) has led to a complex network, which is difficult to manage due to the extensive communication of vehicles and storage of vehicles’ data. Due to increase in number of vehicles, IVs come up with large difficulties. Huge data generated by IVs is very difficult to be handled due to limited storage and lack of intelligent management. Many security and privacy problems are also related to the IV networks. Traditional centralized approaches are used to deal with limited storage and security issues. Increasing number of vehicles expand the number of links in network and also leads to the intensive data. Lack of coordination of vehicles, reliability of the network and traffic among vehicles are some of the major issues. These issues hinder the performance of the vehicle industry. We propose a consensus based mechanism using blockchain technology to manage the intensive data and authenticate the data of vehicles in the EV industry. This mechanism also ensures data privacy, security and also promotes data immutability. The transactions are stored in distributed ledger to provide facility of transparency. In a nutshell, blockchain technology is incorporated in EVs sector to revolutionize the World.
