Abstract

The development and testing of new applications in Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS) environments, which rely on Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication, is frequently supported through simulations. Nevertheless, most of existing simulators are either outdated or do not consider the latest adopted standards. Especially, the security and privacy mechanisms of vehicles and V2X communications. Which leads to incorrect and biased assessments in numerous privacy-aware applications such as Intrusion detection. In this context, we introduce Platelet, which stands as the first V2X simulator compliant with security and privacy standards.
