Abstract: a vehicle communication system, including plural control devices configured to carry out communication with one another, wherein a transmitting device and a receiving device each include a memory and a processor. the processor at the transmitting device generates first authentication information based on a message and the encryption key, and in a case in which there is an abnormality at the encryption key, transmits the predetermined authentication information and the message to the receiving device. the processor at the receiving device generates second authentication information based on the encryption key and the received message, collates the first authentication information and the second authentication information, and authenticates the message, and in a case in which, after starting-up of the receiving device, authentication has not succeeded even once, and the received first authentication information and the predetermined authentication information match, accepts the received message.

Abstract: a communication system performs a communication between a moving body capable of using multiple communication carriers and an external device. the communication system acquires actual communication quality information that is acquired in real time from a communication device group present in a first area located in a direction of movement of the moving body and indicates an actual measured value of a communication quality of each of the multiple communication carriers in the first area. the communication system determines priority of the multiple communication carriers in the first area based on the actual communication quality information regarding the first area. the communication system determines, based on the priority, at least one communication carrier to be used for the communication between the moving body and the external device in the first area.
