Abstract

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system as a new type public passenger transport system has been widely used, but it is lack of security mechanism and there is potential security hazard for the data transported between On Board Equipment (OBE) and Roadside Equipment (RSE). Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology brings user privacy and security concern because of wireless communication mode and no demand for line-of-sight. An efficient and secure authentication protocol is proposed based on the analysis of the security and privacy of RFID application in BRT system, which uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) as cryptographic primitive. Compared with current typical protocols, this protocol efficiently prevents location tracking, spoofing, tampering, traffic analysis and replay attack, etc. Analysis result shows that this protocol is of high efficiency, low cost and good security.
