In this paper, we provide the first scalable privacy-preserving authentication protocol for VANETs without participation of the nearby RSU. Existing authentication methods for VANETs require the participation of the nearby RSUs. So, bottleneck problem can be occurred as increasing the number of vehicles. Also, the time delay to authenticate the nearby vehicle will increase. In order to minimize...
