Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is an inter vehicle communication paradigm not yet widely diploid and standardized. The main feature of V2V is that it does not rely on third party networks like cellular networks to communicate. Its ad hoc communication spans up to 1000 m with 360° view of nearby vehicles. Despite the wide range of benefit that V2V offers, it still faces a number of challenges in deployment. Due to high rating by operators of V2V capabilities to solve road traffic critical safety, increase interest in this technology. This student research paper explores technologies, benefits, and challenges of V2V with solutions. It focuses on countering the challenges of control systems with more emphasis on security. In this context, the technology poses security issues with interference. Thus an enhanced architectural solution is suggested that could help to guarantee system operation without interference and more physical security. A standardized space on road vehicle should be created specifically for V2V components and system status application should be added. In this regard V2V is a vehicular ad hoc network designed for automobiles to talk to each other automatically, using a wireless ad hoc network.
