Abstract
Due to VDES’s higher data transmission speed and complex communication protocols, vulnerabilities within its data link infrastructure are more pronounced. To ensure the reliability of VDES data transmission, this manuscript proposes a credibility monitoring approach based on the combined detection method of radio interference detection and spoofing source identification and localization, focusing on key data link vulnerabilities outlined in the IALA G1181 VDES VDL Integrity Guide. Automated monitoring is achieved through VDES data link monitoring software (VDES(AIS 2.0)), which is based on a three-tier architecture and a Client/Server (C/S) model. The software validates monitoring techniques and software against various interference scenarios. Visualization of monitoring results, alarm notifications, and relevant data through the front-end interface enhances understanding of VDES data link credibility. This framework supports effective surveillance and detection of vulnerabilities, such as radio interference and spoofing sources.
