Abstract

Initial entry section has vulnerability which exposes plain text parameter in Mobile WIMAX environment which is the 4th generation technology. Each node message need to be encrypted to prevent the third party attack or message leakage. In this paper, we propose Mobile WIMAX initial entry section encryption using Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem. We have compared proposed model with existing model using OPNET simulator tool. He delay rate has increased little bit in initial entry section than before after the comparison, but it has shown more effective in average delay and throughput than encryption applied other existing model.

(4G) 세대 이동통신 기술인 Mobile WIMAX 환경에서 네트워크 초기진입 구간은 평문 Parameter 노출되는 취약성이 존재한다. 각 노드의 메시지의 유출 및 제 3자의 공격을 예방하기 위해서는 메시지의 암호화가 요구된다. 본 논문은 타원곡선 암호가 적용된 Mobile WIMAX 네트워크 초기 진입 구간을 제안한다. OPNET 시뮬레이터를 이용해 기존 모델와의 성능 비교를 하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 기존 초기 진입 구간에 비해 다소 지연율이 증가하였으나 암호화가 적용된 기존의 연구에 비교하여 평균 지연율 및 처리율이 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.
