Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, processes, and computer-readable media for wireless communications. For example, a process may include determining a potential position overlap between a first vehicle and a second vehicle and determining a characteristic of at least one of the first vehicle or the second vehicle based on information from a vehicle-based message. The process may include determining whether the potential position overlap is an actual position overlap between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on the characteristic.

Detection of position overlap (PO) between objects

Methods, systems, and devices for road usage charging (RUC) are described. RUC computation may be performed at a vehicle using a vehicle computing device (VCD) that is trusted by a service provider, charger, or both. The VCD may be trusted to collect high accuracy, high resolution time and location data for RUC, and also compute for itself what the RUC charge is according to one or more applicable charge policies that are provided to the VCD. Anonymity related to specific vehicle and location information may be provided by encrypting portions of RUC data that are decryptable by different entities with reduced likelihood of revealing specific vehicle, location, and time information.

Road usage charging (RUC) determination and reporting techniques

Embodiments include methods performed by vehicle-to-everything (V2X) system for protecting proprietary data within misbehavior reports. Various embodiments may include detecting misbehavior conditions based on received sensor data, determining whether the received sensor data that supports a conclusion that a misbehavior condition has occurred is or includes proprietary information, and encrypting the sensor data that supports the conclusion that the misbehavior condition has occurred in response to determining that the received sensor data is or includes the proprietary information. Various embodiments may further include generating a misbehavior report including the received sensor data that supports the conclusion that the misbehavior condition has occurred in response to determining that the misbehavior condition has occurred, in which the received sensor data included in the misbehavior report is encrypted in response to determining that the received sensor data is or includes proprietary information, and transmitting the generated misbehavior report to a misbehavior managing authority.

Methods and devices and systems for implementing the methods for authenticating plaintext and ciphertext in a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) message include generating ciphertext from a plaintext message to be transmitted in a V2X message, generating a hash of the ciphertext and a hash of the plaintext message, generating a digital signature of a concatenation of the hash of the ciphertext and the hash of the plaintext message, and sending to a network node a V2X message that includes the ciphertext, the hash of the plaintext message, and the digital signature. The hash of the plaintext message, and the digital signature may be configured to enable the network node to verify that the V2X endpoint node signed the concatenation.
