Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AV) can not only improve traffic safety and congestion, but also have strategic significance for the development of the transportation industry. With the continuous updating of core technologies such as artificial intelligence, sensor detection, synchronous positioning, and high-precision mapping, the development of AV has been promoted. When 5G network is combined with Internet of Vehicles, the problems of AV can be solved by taking advantage of 5G ultra-large bandwidth, low latency and high reliability. However, when the user controls the vehicle remotely, a real-time and reliable authentication process is needed, while minimizing the overhead of security protocols. Therefore, this article proposes a practical and secure multifactor user authentication protocol for AV in 5G network. By introducing non-interactive zero-knowledge proof technology and physical uncloning function, the protocol completes mutual authentication and key agreement without revealing any sensitive information. The article proves the security of the protocol through BAN logic and the simulation of Scyther. And it can resist malicious attacks and provide more security features. The informal security analysis shows that the protocol can meet the proposed security requirements. Finally, we evaluate the efficiency of the protocol, and the results show that the protocol can provide better performance.
