A non-repudiation scheme for user postings based on BAC in Mesh networks
Yatao Yang, Burkhard Stiller · 2012
It is not easy to supervise and manage nonstandard and illegal network operations in open wireless environment with multi-hop relay transmission in Mesh networks. To solve the non-repudiation issue on a user's posting operation when accessing the Internet via a wireless Mesh network, a novel non-repudiation scheme for a user's posting operation is proposed based on the user Behavior Authentication Code (BAC). By using of user's BAC, the protocol stack and authentication frame in the MAC layer of a Mesh network are reconstructed and improved so as to process the data flow conveniently in the multi-gateway mode, which ensure the secure aim of a posting operation's controllability and detectability. Simulation experiment results show the validity and feasibility of the scheme proposed.
