In this paper, we propose a covert wireless uplink transmission strategy in space-air-ground integrated vehicular networks, where the source vehicle transmits its own message over the channel that being used by the host communication system, to avoid being detected by the warden. It is obvious that the data transmission efficiency of the covert communication system is limited due to the co-channel interference. To improve the data transmission efficiency, we consider that the covert communication system adopts improper Gaussian signaling (IGS). We formulate a joint transmit power and IGS factor optimization problem to minimize the outage probability of the covert communication system. The minimum error detection probability of the warden is first analyzed with noise uncertainty, which is used to measure the system covertness. Under the constraints of the quality of service (QoS) of host communication system and the covertness requirement, the optimal transmit power is first derived with proper Gaussian signaling (PGS) scheme. Then, with the approximate outage probability derived under IGS scheme, the optimization problem is solved by jointly designing the transmit power and IGS factor. Finally, we provide extensive numerical results to validate the proposed covert transmission strategy, and demonstrate that the IGS scheme is beneficial in improving the data transmission efficiency in terms of outage probability compared to PGS scheme.
