Abstract:

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) are an emergent technology with a promising future. VANETs are quite different from mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) in terms of characteristics, challenges, system architecture, and application. One of the significant challenges of the VANET is the security from two essential points of view, the prediction and prevention attackers. In this article, we proposed an operating system that combined both software-defined network (SDN) and self-organizing map (SOM) for the 5G-based VANET system. The proposed system will be a new combination of the SDN- and a self-organizing map (SOM)-based network solution to enhance security in the two dimensions, detecting and preventing attacks. This article analysis the vulnerability of the network performance with taken into account the distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. Then, the security of the proposed system has been analyzed and checked with existing of the DDoS. The simulation results presented in this article show that, under general conditions of networks, the proposed system can enhance the networks performance compared to the existing work.
