This research demonstrates that small language models (SLMs) can effectively detect and classify GNSS spoofing attacks in autonomous vehicles with performance comparable to large language models but significantly lower resource requirements. By converting driving states into semantic narratives, the framework enables real-time security monitoring suitable for deployment on edge devices within vehicular computing platforms. The study highlights a practical application of AI where efficiency constraints are critical without sacrificing detection accuracy against sophisticated navigation spoofing attacks.
Structured Driving-State Narratives for Small Language Model-Based GNSS Spoofing Detection
arXiv:2608.17092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) depend on reliable Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning. However, spoofed GNSS signals can induce plausible but incorrect vehicle states. This study develops a small language model (SLM)-based framework for detecting and classifying GNSS spoofing attacks by comparing vehicle behaviors independently derived from GNSS and other sensing sources. The framework converts independent driving states from GNSS and other sensing sources into structured semantic narratives that are provided to an SLM for spoofing detection and attack classification. The performance of the SLM-based framework is compared with large language models (LLMs) fine-tuned on identical training data and evaluated on the same test set. The evaluation considers five classes: no attack, overshoot attack, stopped attack, turn-by-turn attack, and wrong-turn attack. The framework is also evaluated with geographically unseen field data collected in Clemson, South Carolina, United States. Experimental results indicate that the evaluated SLMs achieve performance similar to the LLMs, achieving an average accuracy of 96.99%, precision of 99.05%, recall of 95.59%, and F1-score of 97.18%. In terms of computational efficiency and resource utilization, the SLMs demonstrate advantages over the LLMs by requiring lower inference latency and less GPU memory during both fine-tuning and inference. Evaluation using field data collected in a geographically distinct location further demonstrated its efficacy. The presented framework can detect and classify GNSS spoofing attacks in real-time while requiring relatively low computational and memory resources, and is therefore suitable for deployment on resource-constrained vehicular computing platforms.
