Abstract

Unmanned control vehicles are used for a variety of scenarios where the user can conduct a task from a remote location; scenarios include surveillance, disaster recovery and agricultural farming. The operation of unmanned vehicles is generally conducted over a wireless communication medium.

The nature of the wireless broadcast allows attackers to exploit security vulnerabilities through passive and active attacks; consequently, cryptography is often selected as a countermeasure to the aforementioned attacks. This paper analyses simulation undertaken to identify the affect of cryptographic constructs on the Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) of controlling an unmanned vehicle. Results indicate that standardised AEAD cryptographic approaches can increase the additional distance travelled by a unmanned vehicle over multiple hops communications up to 110 meters per second.
