Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) technology has recently attracted significant attention from academia and industry because of it is increasingly important role in improving networks' capacity and data rate. Moreover, MU-MIMO systems for the Fifth Generation (5G) have already been researched. High Quality of Service (QoS) and efficient operations at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer have become key requirements. In this paper, we propose a downlink MU-MIMO MAC protocol based on adaptive Channel State Information (CSI) feedback (called MMM-A) for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). A modified CSMA/CA mechanism using new frame formats is adopted in the proposed protocol. Specifically, the CSI is exchanged between stations (STAs) in an adaptive way, and a packet selection strategy which can guarantee a fairer QoS for scenarios with differentiated traffic is also included in the MMM-A protocol. We then derive the expressions of the throughput and access delay, and analyze the performance of the protocol. It is easy to find that the MMM-A protocol outperforms the commonly used protocols in terms of the saturated throughput and access delay through simulation and analysis results.

The RFID system is very useful in various fields such as the distribution industry and the management of the material, etc. However, the RFID system suffers from various attacks since it does not have a complete authentication protocol. Therefore, this paper propose the authentication protocol that used key server to resist various attacks including DoS(Denial of Service) attack. For easy implementation, the proposed protocol also uses CRC, RN16 generation function existing in EPCglobal class 1 gen2 protocol. This paper performed security analysis to prove that the proposed protocol is resistant to various attacks. The analytical results showed that the proposed protocol offered a secure RFID system.

A new optical asymmetric cryptosystem is proposed by modifying the asymmetric RSA public-key protocol required in a cryptosystem. The proposed asymmetric public-key algorithm can be optically implemented by combining a two-step quadrature phase-shifting digital holographic encryption method with the modified RSA public-key algorithm; then two pairs of public-private keys are used to encrypt and decrypt the plaintext. Public keys and ciphertexts are digital holograms that are Fourier-transform holograms, and are recorded on CCDs with 256-gray-level quantized intensities in the optical architecture. The plaintext can only be decrypted by the private keys, which are acquired by the corresponding asymmetric public-key-generation algorithm. Schematically, the proposed optical architecture has the advantage of producing a complicated, asymmetric public-key cryptosystem that can enhance security strength compared to the conventional electronic RSA public-key cryptosystem. Numerical simulations are carried out to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method, by evaluating decryption performance and analysis. The proposed method shows feasibility for application to an asymmetric public-key cryptosystem.

In this paper, we propose a security framework for a cluster drones network using the MAVLink (Micro Air Vehicle Link) application protocol based on FANET (Flying Ad-hoc Network), which is composed of ad-hoc networks with multiple drones for IoT services such as remote sensing or disaster monitoring. Here, the drones belonging to the cluster construct a FANET network acting as WTRP (Wireless Token Ring Protocol) MAC protocol. Under this network environment, we propose an efficient algorithm applying the Lightweight Encryption Algorithm (LEA) to the CTR (Counter) operation mode of WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access 2) to encrypt the transmitted data through the MAVLink application. And we study how to apply LEA based on CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) operation mode used in WPA2 for message security tag generation. In addition, a modified Diffie-Hellman key exchange method is approached to generate a new key used for encryption and security tag generation. The proposed method and similar methods are compared and analyzed in terms of efficiency.

TETRA system provides the radio authentication service which permits only authorized radio to access network. Radio authentication is the process which checks the sameness of authentication-key(K) shared between radio and authentication center by challenge-response protocol. TETRA standard authentication protocol can prevent the clone radio to copy ISSI from accessing network, but can't prevent the clone radio to copy ISSI & authentication-key. This paper analyzes authentication-key generation/delivery/infection model in TETRA authentication system and analyzes the threat of clone radio caused by authentication-key exposure. Finally we propose the new authentication protocol which prevent the clone radio to copy ISSI & authentication-key from accessing network.

Secure multimedia multicast applications involve group communications where group membership requires secured dynamic key generation and updating operations. Such operations usually consume high computation time and therefore designing a key distribution protocol with reduced computation time is necessary for multicast applications. In this paper, we propose a new key distribution protocol that focuses on two aspects. The first one aims at the reduction of computation complexity by performing lesser numbers of multiplication operations using a ternary-tree approach during key updating. Moreover, it aims to optimize the number of multiplication operations by using the existing Karatsuba divide and conquer approach for fast multiplication. The second aspect aims at reducing the amount of information communicated to the group members during the update operations in the key content. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated based on computation and communication complexity and a comparative performance analysis of various key distribution protocols is provided. Moreover, it has been observed that the proposed algorithm reduces the computation and communication time significantly.

Currently, the X.509 proxy certificate is widely used to delegate an entity's right to another entity in the computational grid environment. However it has two drawbacks: the potential security threat caused by intraceability of a delegation chain and the inefficiency caused by an interactive communication between the right grantor and the right grantee on the delegation protocol. To address these problems for computational grids, we propose a new delegation protocol without additional cost. We use an ID-based key generation technique to generate a proxy private key which is a means to exercise the delegated signing right. By applying the ID-based key generation technique, the proposed protocol has the delegation traceability and the non-interactive delegation property. Since the right delegation occurs massively in the computational grid environment, our protocol can contribute the security enhancement by providing the delegation traceability and the efficiency enhancement by reducing the inter-domain communication cost.

The secure group communication enables the members, which belong to the same group, to communicate each other in a secure and secret manner. To do so, it is the most important that a group key is securely distributed among them and also group membership is efficiently managed. In detail, the generation, the distribution and the refreshment of a group key would be highly regarded in terms of low communication and computation complexity. In this paper, we show you a new protocol to generate a group key which will be safely shared within a group, utilizing the 2-party Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol and the complete binary tree. Our protocol has less complexity of computation per group member by substituting many parts of exponentiation computations for multiplications. Consequently, each group member needs constant computations of exponentiation and multiplication regardless of the group size in the protocol and then it has less complexity of the computation than that of any other protocols.

Recently, there are rapid development of information and communication technology and rapid growing of e-business users. We propose a method for security problem on the internet environment which changes from wire internet to wireless internet or wire/ wireless internet. Wireless e-business adopts credit card WPP protocol and AIP protocol proposed by ASPeCT. WAP, one of the protocol used by WPP has weakness of leaking out information from WG which connected wire and wireless communication. Certification chain based AIP protocol requires a lot of computation time and user IDs are known to others. We propose a Micro-Payment protocol based on credit card. Our protocol use the encryption techniques of the public key with ID to ensure the secret of transaction in the step of session key generation. IDs are generated using ECC based Weil pairing. We also use the certification with hidden electronic sign to transmit the payment result. The proposed protocol also solves the privacy protection and Non-repudiation problem.
