Abstract
An authentication system for V2X communication systems includes a first node having a V2X communication module with a processor, a memory, and input/output ports communicating a request to join and periodically communicating a first data packet to the V2X communication system. The authentication system having a private blockchain including a plurality of participant nodes within a predefined optimized area of one another, the blockchain receiving and validating the request to join the V2X communication system, and upon successfully validating the request to join the V2X communication system, periodically sending a second data packet from the plurality of participant nodes to the first node. The input/output ports receiving the second data packet, the processor executing a first control logic stored in the memory to extract the second data packet and a second control logic selectively generating a notification based on the contents of the second data packet.
