Research on Communication Network Security of Unmanned Surface Vehicle Based on Block Chain

Abstract

The communication network security of unmanned surface vehicle (USV) is the central problem to ensure the stable operation and data transmission of boat system. Based on block chain, this paper studies the communication network security of USV. By introducing the block chain technology into the communication network of USV, the design of identity authentication mechanism based on block chain was made, and the protection method of data integrity was proposed. Then the decentralized trust model is made to provide the protection in aspects of identity authentication, data integrity, non-repudiation and network defense. To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the security mechanism, the construction of simulation environment was built and the experiments were done, which was built for the communication network of USV based on block chain. The paper shown that the application of block chain in the cyber security of USV was worthy of study.
