Improving Availability of Secure Wireless Sensor Networks
Category: Software and Web Development, Networking and Communications
Tags: base station, network
Overview As wireless sensor networks continue to grow, so does the need for effective security mechanisms. But one of the main challenges for efficient key distribution in wireless sensor networks is the resource limitation. Some nodes play a central role in key distribution. For example, cluster heads in the LEAP security protocol have the main responsibility for key distribution to their cluster nodes. This paper presents a new energy aware key distribution solution to enhance the availability of a secure wireless sensor network environment by increasing the lifetime of all constituents of the network including the base station, cluster heads and cluster nodes.
