This paper proposes the lightweight autonomous vehicle self-diagnosis (LAVS) using machine learning based on sensors and the internet of things (IoT) gateway. It collects sensor data from in-vehicle sensors and changes the sensor data to sensor messages as it passes through protocol buses. The changed messages are divided into header information, sensor messages, and payloads and they are stored in an address table, a message queue, and a data collection table separately. In sequence, the sensor messages are converted to the message type of the other protocol and the payloads are transferred to an in-vehicle diagnosis module (In-VDM). The LAVS informs the diagnosis result of Cloud or road side unit(RSU) by the internet of vehicles (IoV) and of drivers by Bluetooth. To design the LAVS, the following two modules are needed. First, a multi-protocol integrated gateway module (MIGM) converts sensor messages for communication between two different protocols, transfers the extracted payloads to the In-VDM, and performs IoV to transfer the diagnosis result and payloads to the Cloud through wireless access in vehicular environment(WAVE). Second, the In-VDM uses random forest to diagnose parts of the vehicle, and delivers the results of the random forest as an input to the neural network to diagnose the total condition of the vehicle. Since the In-VDM uses them for self-diagnosis, it can diagnose a vehicle with efficiency. In addition, because the LAVS converts payloads to a WAVE message and uses IoV to transfer the WAVE messages to RSU or the Cloud, it prevents accidents in advance by informing the vehicle condition of drivers rapidly.
