Abstract In recent years, the rapid development of autonomous vehicles (AVs) has brought new challenges in terms of data security, privacy, and communication integrity. Our research investigates the potential of blockchain technology to improve the security of AVs by securing vehicle communication systems. By integrating blockchain with AI-based predictive algorithms, this approach aims to secure vehicle peer-to-peer communication, reduce traffic congestion, and improve safety for drivers and pedestrians. Blockchain’s decentralized ledger ensures the integrity of data exchange between vehicles and smart city infrastructure and mitigates the risks of cyberattacks such as data manipulation and identity forgery. This paper also examines recent advances in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) and vehicular social networks (VSNs), and it demonstrates how the immutability and cryptographic security of the blockchain can strengthen AV systems. The proposed architecture not only protects user privacy but also decentralizes access to critical data needed for AI-driven decisions, ultimately promoting a safer and more reliable environment for autonomous vehicles. © 2024 by the authors.
