WiMAX networks have advantages over the wired network, such as convenience, mobility, and flexibility. The security concerns in this network may prevent its further widespread adoption. Hence, improving the security of WiMAX is of considerable importance. In WiMAX networks by providing security features like authentication, authorization and encryption. The absence of proper authentication mechanism can lead to many threats like denial of service, masquerading and attacks on the authentication protocol. Authentication is the most difficult from the perspective of network security; hence, various forms and threats related to authentication are needed to be studied. The aim of this paper is to study the various authentication schemes such as RSA, EAP and HMAC.

“…Theyhave analyzed several currently deployed techniques for the security of Wimax and cover both the secure communication as well as the risk analysis mechanism. The exiting models have also several drawbacks and the author's [4] work on the existing security architecture for Wimax. Threats to wimax network have been analyzed and discuss various classes of wireless attacks on Wimax.…”

Wimax is one of the fast growing technologies in the world as compare to other wireless networks. IEEE has defined standard IEEE 802.16 for Wimax. Wimax growing rapidly due to the services it's provides and long range accessibility, but still Wimax facing a lot of security issues and threats like jamming , DDOS , Rogue Base station attack ,Reply Attack and so on.Wimax furnish different security mechanism for unauthorized access ,Encryption, Authentication etc. and several security architecture , mechanism areproposed. But still Wimax is under attack like Rogue Base station Attack And Reply Attack.so in this paper we proposed a new and unique security model and Encryption technique on the basis of existing model to secure Wimax from Rogue Base station Attack and reply attack. We perform the simulation through NS-2

“…The optimal jamming waveform is intuitively white Gaussian noise (WGN), since from the information theory point of view, it has maximum entropy. This conclusion can also be drawn from the fact that the receiver can not distinguish between jammer injected noise and its own [8][9]. Based on the relationship between jammer bandwidth and that of the equipment, single carrier jamming can be categorized into narrow-(spot) and wideband (barrage) jamming.…”
