Abstrakt: The time synchronization of LTE-R train-to-ground communication systems plays an important role in ensuring the safety of high-speed railways. In the LTE-R time synchronization process, existing problems, such as the time synchronization message broadcast address and LTE-R all-IP architecture, are vulnerable to attack. In order to analyze the impact of these problems, we propose a new vulnerability analysis method of LTE-R time synchronization based on stochastic Petri nets. Firstly, we construct a stochastic Petri net model of an LTE-R time synchronization process under attack. Secondly, steady-state probability expressions are obtained using the model isomorphism Markov chain. Finally, bychanging the firing rate of several key vulnerable nodes, the relationship curve between the firing rate and the steady-state probability of the clock node is obtained. Simulations show that the vulnerability of LTE-R time synchronization is most affected by the attack on eNodeB of the LTE-R base station. The results can provide a certain theoretical basis for the evolution of high-speed railway GSM-R communication systems to LTE-R. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
