This standard provides a specification of a general misbehavior report format suitable for reporting misbehavior observed by a system running SAE V2X applications, and specific report contents for specific instances of misbehavior. It also provides an overview of the architecture of a system-wide misbehavior management service for the V2X system and positions the misbehavior reporting services within that architecture.
Rationale:
Misbehavior reporting is a key service to maintain robustness of the V2X system. It requires standardization because devices from multiple implementers will produce reports and submit them to one or more misbehavior authorities which are operated independently from the reporters, meaning that an interface standard is necessary to ensure interoperability and consistency between reports.
