As an indispensable part of intelligent transportation system, a traffic-sensitive navigation system can assist drivers in avoiding traffic congestion by providing navigation services. The navigation service provider (NSP) utilizes road condition information from nearby vehicles collected by roadside units (RSUs) to guide a vehicle through an optimal route provided by the navigation services. This paper mainly focuses on tackling three key issues in such navigation system. Firstly, it is essential to ensure the privacy of the vehicles’ personal identifiable information (PII). Secondly, the location, start point destination and route of the vehicle should not be leaked to RSUs and also should not be linked to its PII by RSUs and NSP. Thirdly, the process of vehicles obtaining the navigation services should be lightweight. Because of such problems, this paper proposes a dual privacy-preserving lightweight navigation system for vehicular networks through designing a novel signature scheme and combining other cryptographic primitives to keep dual privacy including PII and route related information. And the correctness analysis of the proposed system, security proof of the designed signature scheme adopted in the proposed system, and privacy analysis of the system are thoroughly provided. In addition, the performance of the proposed system is evaluated and compared with the existing systems to illustrate that the proposed system is efficient.
