PERFORMANCE OF VOUCHER SYSTEM FOR IMPLANTED CHAIN CERTIFICATE SCHEME
Ladislav Huraj · 2006
The paper presents design, background as well as simulation results of our new communication system designed for adhoc wireless networks which supports Implanted Chain Certificates Scheme providing efficiency of certificate verification. We employ threshold cryptography to spread the certificate service over specially selected nodes, the vouchers, to achieve high fault tolerance against network partition and malicious nodes. Moreover, we present ubiquitous services of Implanted Chain Certificates Scheme in the network by voucher system and we provide some insights into the configuration of such security services in ad-hoc networks. Simulations by use of ns2 simulator confirm the effectiveness of our design.
