WSN Authentication using RF Fingerprints (D.
Knox and T. Kunz)
RF Fingerprints for WSN Authentication
§RF
Fingerprints
–Unique
characteristics of different wireless signals can be used to identify specific
nodes (the equivalent of human fingerprints for a radio
signal)
–Some
characterization work already done by other researchers, but some problems still
need to be solved (e.g. ‘noisy’ characterization process and they have only
been studied recently for implementation in ad hoc networks)
§Our
Research Interest: What can be done and what needs to be done
to use RF Fingerprints for WSN Node Authentication?
