Authentication Service for Tactical ad-hoc Networks with UAV

摘要：

A tactical ad-hoc network is a self-organizing, infrastructureless, multi-hop network. The wireless and distributed nature of tactical ad-hoc networks and the very bad security environment in battlefield bring a great challenge to securing tactical ad-hoc networks. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) play more and more important roles in digital battlefields, such as repeaters, routers and detectors. In fact, UAVS can also help improve the security of the system if their shortages can be overcome. In this paper, we propose a scheme of authentication service for tactical ad-hoc networks, in which UAVs can play a important role as certificate authority. When UAVs can not work again or are captured, their functions can be distributed to some selected units on the ground.
