Abstract

The mobile devices are constrained to be low battery, and the mobile data channel is low data rate. Therefore, the computational cost on the client side of the authentication protocol should be low. In 2005, Hwang and Su proposed an efficient authentication protocol for mobile networks. Hwang-Su protocol is more efficient than other related protocols. In this paper, we propose a new efficient authentication protocol for mobile networks. The proposed protocol is more efficient than Hwang-Su's in computational respect although our protocol is nearly equal to Hwang-Su's in communication respect. It is suitable to apply in the mobile networks.
