Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a robust and efficient signature scheme for vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, which can effectively eliminate the performance bottleneck when verifying a mass of signatures within a rigorously required interval, even under adverse scenarios with bogus messages. In addition, our scheme offers the other conventional security features for vehicular networks, such as identity privacy and traceability.
