Abstract

In recent years, the rapid development and wide usage of wireless sensor networks, makes it a research hotspot at home and abroad. Wireless sensor network is an open network, the sensor nodes can easily be captured or tampered. Ensuring network security is a prerequisite for communication. So, establishing session key between adjacent nodes is critical in key management scheme for wireless sensor networks. In order to save cost and control node size, nodes in sensor networks typically have characteristics of weak storage capacity, low communication bandwidth and limited computing ability. Therefore, ordinary key management mechanism cannot be applied to the sensor networks directly. In consideration of these features of sensor nodes, a CPK-based key management scheme for wireless sensor networks is proposed in this paper based on the complexity of solving elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Analysis shows that our scheme performs better than some existing scheme in security, storage efficiency, calculation cost and other aspects, so it can be applied to large-scale wireless sensor networks.
