AEV3: V2X Communication System based on Localised Distributed Ledgers
A truly distributed & independent V2X communication architecture, enabling autonomous vehicles to seamlessly communicate & synchronise with one another as well as with the surrounding infrastructural components.

The Motivation
enables to be aware of what’s beyond their scope of vision by utilising the sensor data of other connected vehicles or infrastructural elements. This makes it possible for vehicles to “see” hazards miles ahead of themselves or even around corners and bends, enhancing the safety of commuters and .
Further, they allow decisions to be made collectively with all the participating systems, facilitating a highly synchronised functioning and optimisation of the vehicles’ motion vectors.
†V2X is composed of , , and .
Developments
Our work is based on and inspired by , having the nodes communicate through mutually agreed rules and priorities. Its fundamentally decentralised and distributed nature brings with it the privacy and security advantages that are essential for such applications.
The novelty of our work allows us to achieve some of the lowest latency figures yet, through the usage of , such that a vehicle would exchange only with entities within defined vicinity and those that agree on set rules and priorities enabling dynamic path optimisation.
My Role
I’ve been heading AEV3 since 2019 as an experimental project under Aufenbach. My responsibilities include heading the team, design of the network architecture, and the communication protocols.
The Team
The team consists of 3 other members from Aufenbach, along with other researchers from Monash University.
Status
We are working on a collaboration with IOTA in order to overcome some of the technical challenges.
