Abstract

Recent innovations in the smart city domain include new autonomous transportation solutions such as buses and cars, while Autonomous Passenger Ships (APS) are being considered for carrying passengers across urban waterways. APS integrate several interconnected systems and services that are required to communicate in a reliable manner to provide safe and secure real-time operations. In this paper, we discuss the APS context, stakeholders, regulations, standards and functions in order to identify communication and cybersecurity requirements towards designing a secure communication architecture suitable for APS.
