A Sensor Network Security Protocol for Monitoring the State of Bridge

교량감시를 위한 센서 네트워크 보안프로토콜

The wireless sensor network consists of a number of sensor nodes which have physical constraints. Each sensor node senses surrounding environments and sends the sensed information to Sink. The inherent vulnerability in security of the sensor nodes has promoted the needs for the lightweight security protocol. In this paper, we propose a non-hierarchical sensor network and a security protocol that is suitable for monitoring the man-made objects such as bridges. Furthermore, we present the efficient way of setting the routing path by storing IDs, MAC(message authentication code) and the location information of the nodes, and taking advantage of the two node states, Sleep and Awake. This also will result in the reduced energy consuming rate.
