Extended Security Analysis of Multi-Hop Ticket Based Handover Authentication Protocol in the 802.16j Network

Design and Verification of Secure Mutual Authentication Protocols for Mobile Multihop Relay WiMAX Networks against Rogue Base/Relay Stations

“…In [18,19], Khan et al proposed a modified PKM protocol using distributed authentication and localized key management scheme. In [3], Tie and Yi proposed a multihop ticket based handover authentication which adopted the idea from Kerberos and used a ticket to allow MS, RS, and BS to mutually authenticate each other. However, the authors in the aforementioned papers did not take rogue access node attack into consideration.…”

“…In the early days when WiMAX was designed, WiMAX faced the paradox that increasing data rate will reduce reliability, and increasing minimum reliability service will reduce the coverage area [3]. One possible solution is to deploy more base stations (BSs) closely, but the high cost of deploying BSs will give away the original economic competitiveness of WiMAX.…”

Privacy preservation with RTT‐based detection for wireless mesh networks

“…A single authentication process during handover via ticket-based allows neighbouring MAPs to share a pre-stored symmetric key [5][6][7]. A group key authentication process during handover allows the authentication server (AS) to divide the network into multiple groups [8][9][10]. A broadcast authentication process during handover allows AS to authenticate the clients while maintaining every MAP [11,12].…”
