In 1976, Diffie and Hellman in their path breaking paper [5] proposed a two party key agreement protocol based on finite field.Diffie -Hellman Key Exchange Protocol [DH protocol] has unique importance in two party wireless communication scenarios.After this protocol several protocols have been proposed which were based on DH protocol but the Man in the middle attack raises a serious security concern on this protocol.Researchers have been working to overcome this security concern to design a new protocol.This paper proposes an authenticated key agreement protocol which is secure against Man in the middle attack.The authors also prove security issues of this protocol.
