Title
Performance analysis of authentication and key distribution scheme for mobile multi-hop relay in IEEE 802.16j
Abstract
Mobile multi-hop relay (MMR) network is known to be easy to install and convenient to manage because of its self-organizing and self-healing characteristics. However, MMR is vulnerable to security problems because of the same reason. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid authentication and key distribution algorithm for IEEE 802.16j MMR service. The proposed scheme uses centralized authentication when a mobile station or a relay station initially joins the MMR network and uses distributed authentication for hop-by-hop authentication between mobile nodes. We examine the procedure of the proposed scheme and its usefulness when applied to MMR networks. We also analyze the performance of the hybrid scheme. The proposed scheme can be used in any mobile multi-hop network as well as IEEE 802.16j MMR network.
