Ego actions in response to misbehaving vehicle identification

A system for a vehicle, comprising:

• communication circuitry arranged to receive signals over a vehicle-to-anything (V2X) network;
• processing circuitry;
• and
• memory coupled to the processing circuitry, the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processing circuitry cause the processing circuitry to:
• receive, via the signals, a message from a connected vehicle;
• detect a misbehavior of the message;
• score the misbehavior, the score comprising a confidence score and a trust score;
• determine whether the confidence score is greater than a confidence score threshold;
• and
• execute a cautionary pre-misbehavior mitigation instruction set based on a determination that the confidence score is not greater than the confidence score threshold;
• or
• determine whether the trust score is greater than a trust score threshold based on a determination that the confidence score is greater than the confidence score threshold;
• transmit, via the communication circuitry, a misbehavior report comprising an indication of the misbehavior to a misbehavior authority (MA) based on based on a determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold;
• and
• execute one or more misbehavior mitigation instruction sets based on the determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold.

At least one machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed by at least one processor of an ego vehicle, cause the at least one processor to:

• score a misbehavior of a vehicle-to-anything (V2X) message received over a V2X network, the score comprising a confidence score and a trust score;
• determine whether the confidence score is greater than a confidence score threshold;
• and
• execute a cautionary pre-misbehavior mitigation instruction set based on a determination that the confidence score is not greater than the confidence score threshold;
• or
• determine whether the trust score is greater than a trust score threshold based on a determination that the confidence score is greater than the confidence score threshold;
• transmit, via the V2X network, a misbehavior report comprising an indication of the misbehavior to a misbehavior authority (MA) based on based on a determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold;
• and
• execute one or more misbehavior mitigation instruction sets based on the determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold.

A method, comprising:

• scoring a misbehavior of a vehicle-to-anything (V2X) message received over a V2X network, the score comprising a confidence score and a trust score;
• determining whether the confidence score is greater than a confidence score threshold;
• and
• executing a cautionary pre-misbehavior mitigation instruction set based on a determination that the confidence score is not greater than the confidence score threshold;
• or
• determining whether the trust score is greater than a trust score threshold based on a determination that the confidence score is greater than the confidence score threshold;
• transmitting, via the V2X network, a misbehavior report comprising an indication of the misbehavior to a misbehavior authority (MA) based on based on a determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold;
• and
• executing, via processing circuitry, one or more misbehavior mitigation instruction sets based on the determination that the trust score is not greater than the trust score threshold.
