Abstract:
The Position Aware Secure and Efficient Mesh Routing Protocol
(PASER) aims to efficiently establish accurate routes in terms of
metric and legitimated mesh nodes in wireless mesh networks in
presence of external attackers. For this end, it achieves the
following goals: Node authentication, message freshness and
integrity, and neighbor transmissions authentication. The novelty of
PASER lies essentially in combining asymmetric cryptography with
Merkle tree (a lightweight cryptographic primitive) and a keyed-hash
function to secure the routing messages. Another key feature of
PASER is integrating (virtual) geographical positions of nodes in
its hierarchical reactive routing process to enable an advanced
network management while mitigating the wormhole attack. Apart from
that, to address the problem of node compromise, PASER endorses a
key revocation scheme to efficiently exclude those nodes.
