Abstract

Recently, many authentication mechanisms have been proposed to provide security in WiMAX networks. Accessing information securely from any device, anywhere, anytime is becoming an increasingly important requirement for Human Centric Computing (HCC) environments. High mobility of end-users makes typical authentication procedures a challenging task. A novel EAP-TLS-ECDH-RSA-based authentication protocol is proposed which offers the same level of security as the EAP-TLS-RSA authentication mechanism but with improved performance.
