A New Key Predistribution Scheme for Multiphase Sensor Networks Using a New Deployment Model

Abstract EN

During the lifecycle of sensor networks, making use of the existing key predistribution schemes using deployment knowledge for pairwise key establishment and authentication between nodes, a new challenge is elevated.

Either the resilience against node capture attacks or the global connectivity will significantly decrease with time.

In this paper, a new deployment model is developed for multiphase deployment sensor networks, and then a new key management scheme is further proposed.

Compared with the existing schemes using deployment knowledge, our scheme has better performance in global connectivity, resilience against node capture attacks throughout their lifecycle.
