contents In this paper, the challenge of resilient vehicular communications is investigated for a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) wireless link subject to timing jitter induced by the stochastic evolution of interference and inter-vehicular separation dynamics. To characterize the dynamic behavior of V2V systems under the influence of multiple stochastic deterioration processes, this work presents a novel mathematical framework for modeling and mitigating transmission delay jitter in V2V communication systems. A limit-state indicator is introduced to capture the progression of system performance, along with formal mathematical definitions of the system's jitter-withstanding capacity and the load-induced capacity degradation, defined in terms of the V2V system's ability to withstand jitter. These quantities provide the basis for tracking and assessing the system's resilience to timing jitter across all stages, including the alarming, failure, and restoration phases. To enhance resilience against jitter, adaptive power allocation and link diversity strategies (multiple-input-single-output) are investigated. These strategies bring the limit-state metric back within its safety bound, thereby resulting in an improved jitter-withstanding capacity. Numerical results validate the framework for quantifying jitter degradation and enabling resource-aware recovery. The results also establish that the investigated adaptive resource allocation scheme yields approximately 3-fold improvement in the average risk exposure rate relative to a constant resource allocation scheme baseline.
