Because of heavy computational overheads, the use of public key cryptosystem in Wireless Sensor Networks seems unfeasible. But some recent researches show that certain public key cryptosystem can be used in WSN, in which the key and data size, power consumption is relatively small. The NTRU cryptosystem is suggested as one of the candidates of public key cryptosystems which can be used in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose an efficient key agreement scheme using NTRU and we show that it can be used in wireless sensor networks.
