A Review of Privacy and Key Management Protocol in IEEE 802.16e

چکیده
WiMAX is the next generation technology that offers broadband wireless access over long distances. As WiMAX standards expand from considering a fixed line-of-sight propagation and point-to-multipoint infrastructure high frequency system to a lower frequency non-line-of-sight mobile system, WiMAX is open to more security threats than other wireless systems. This paper presents the different security issues present in Privacy and Key Management Protocol along with the proposed solutions.

Mobile WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability Microwave Access) requires the re-authentication of mobile stations as they change from one base station to another. IEEE 802.16e uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) for authentication and key management. This requires about 1000 ms, therefore, it could not support mobile WiMAX applications such as video conference. In the present paper, we...
