Modern vehicles are equipped with a number of ECUs(Electronic Control Units), and ECUs can control vehicles efficiently by communicating each other through CAN(Controller Area Network). However, CAN bus is known to be vulnerable to cyber attacks because of the lack of message authentication and message encryption, and access control. To find these security issues related to vehicle hacking, CAN Fuzzing methods, that analyze the vulnerabilities of ECUs, have been studied. In the existing CAN Fuzzing methods, fuzzing inputs are randomly generated without considering the structure of CAN messages transmitted by ECUs, which results in the non-negligible fuzzing time. In addition, the existing fuzzing solutions have limitations in how to monitor fuzzing results. To deal with the limitations of CAN Fuzzing, in this paper, we propose a Non-Random CAN Fuzzing, which consider the structure of CAN messages and systematically generates fuzzing input values that can cause malfunctions to ECUs. The proposed Non-Random CAN Fuzzing takes less time than the existing CAN Fuzzing solutions, so it can quickly find CAN messages related to malfunctions of ECUs that could be originated from SW implementation errors or CAN DBC(Database CAN) design errors. We evaluated the performance of Non-Random CAN Fuzzing by conducting an experiment in a real vehicle, and proved that the proposed method can find CAN messages related to malfunctions faster than the existing fuzzing solutions.

CAN (controller area network) suffers from data bottleneck since the number of in-vehicle electronic modules significantly increases. To mitigate this problem, CAN-FD (CAN with flexible data rate) has been proposed. Transmission speed is same with CAN in arbitration phase but much higher than CAN in data phase, which successfully achieves both compatibility and efficiency. In this paper, a CAN-FD controller was designed in Verilog HDL and it was implemented and verified in FPGA. The designed controller can perform CAN-FD version 1.0 and CAN version 2.0A, 2.0B. Synthesized in 0.18um technology, its size is about 46,300 gates.

Now the CAN(controller Area Network) is using electronic modules as a serial communication which is very robust to noise. Especially the CAN is using for automotive part that very popular in which automotive electronic control module, engine controller unit, sensor modules, etc. but the CAN has the order of priority to linking node and also has fault confinement so using in these features that is applied to in factory automation product line. The CAN communication is basically very robust to electric noise so varied applying to others part. In this paper, we suggest to CAN interface for embedded system that is possible for error detection using two CAN nodes on Hi-speed, full-CAN.

The increasing number of ECUs in automobiles causes the CAN bus overloaded and consequently the error probability of data transmission increases. Since the time duration for the data transmission is proportional to CAN frame length, it is desirable to reduce the frame length. In this paper, we present a CAN message compression method using Data Length Code (DLC) and bit rearrangement. By simulations using actual CAN data, it is shown that the CAN transmission data is reduced up to 54 % by the proposed method, compared with conventional methods.

The most common communication interface for automotive electronic control devices is CAN (Controller Area Network). Sine CAN was first adopted to Daimler vehicles in 1991, all of automobile manufacturers use the CAN communication for in-vehicle networks. However, as the number of electronic control devices connected to the CAN network rapidly increases, the CAN protocol reaches the limit of technology. To overcome this limitation, Bosch introduced the new communication protocol, that is CAN-FD (Flexible Data-rate). In this paper, we analyze the characteristics and limitations of CAN-FD communication according to the topology under the in-vehicle wiring harness environment designed based on the existing classic CAN communication.

As the number of attacks on vehicles has increased, studies on CAN-based security technologies are actively being carried out. However, since the upper layer protocol of CAN differs for each vehicle manufacturer and model, there is a great difficulty in researches such as developing anomaly detection for CAN or finding vulnerabilities of ECUs. In this paper, we propose a method to infer the detailed structure of the data field of CAN frame by analyzing CAN trace to mitigate this problem. In the existing Internet environment, many researches for reverse engineering proprietary protocols have already been carried out. However, CAN bus has a structure difficult to apply the existing protocol reverse engineering technology as it is. In this paper, we propose new field classification methods with low computation-cost based on the characteristics of data in CAN frame and existing field classification method. The proposed methods are verified through implementation that analyze CAN traces generated by simulations of CAN communication and actual vehicles. They show higher accuracy of field classification with lower computational cost compared to the existing method.

And embedded system adopted ARM9 processor transmits access information of RFID reader controller connected with CAN networks to server, also performs access control. The embedded system can carry CAN frames to server, so it can be used as gateway.

Controller area network (CAN) was designed for multiplexing communication between electronic control units (ECUs) in vehicles and thus for decreasing the overall wire harness. The increasing number of ECUs causes the CAN bus overloaded and consequently the error probability of data transmission increases. Since the time duration for the data transmission is proportional to CAN frame length, it is desirable to reduce the frame length. In this paper, a CAN message compression method is proposed using Data Length Code (DLC) and compression area selection algorithm to reduce the CAN frame length and the error probability during the transmission of CAN messages. By the proposed method, it is not needed to predict the maximum value of the difference in successive CAN messages as opposed to other compression methods. Also, by the use of DLC, we can determine whether the received CAN message has been compressed or not without using two ID's as in conventional methods. By simulations using actual CAN data, it is shown that the CAN transmission data is reduced up to 52 % by the proposed method, compared with conventional methods. By using an embedded test board, it is shown that 64bit EMS CAN data compression can be performed within 0.16ms and consequently the proposed algorithm can be used in automobile applications without any problem.
