Abstract:
Electric vehicles have been recently produced at a very aggressive pace as a way to curb carbon emissions in the 21st century. Public utility companies are rushing to provide electric vehicle charging station infrastructure needed to serve a rapidly growing fleet of EV users in various countries around the world. Equipped with smart meters, charging stations must check vehicle’s characteristics prior to charging, as well as securely report charging data back to public utility companies. In this paper, we propose to leverage an Authentication and Key Agreement protocol used in cellular networks into an electric vehicle authentication and secure metering framework. Starting with a vehicle Subscriber Identification Module, we show how generic vehicle services can be securely provided, including mutual authentication, key agreement, and key management issues.
