Abstract
We propose a novel authentication protocol for wireless mesh network. The proposed authentication protocol is based on the password scheme for convenience of users. The proposed protocol is evaluated through three analyses. The correctness of the proposed protocol is proved using the GNY analysis. By the security analysis, we show that the proposed protocol is resistant to various attacks. For the performance analysis, we implemented the protocol in Linux operating system based laptop and measured the transmission time. The analytic results show that the proposed protocol provides the secure wireless mesh network without considerable performance degradation.
