Security Analysis of MAC Protocol for Mobile Device Identification Based on PARADIS

Abstract

Authenticating wireless devices based on PARADIS technique draws increasing research interest recently, providing security access services in wireless networks. This paper provides an overview of various schemes for PARADIS identification using physical layer characteristics. Firstly, this work systematizes the existing knowledge on this topic for a better understanding of PARADIS device identification, its implications on the analysis and design of security solutions in wireless mobile networks, and possible applications. Secondly, we review the development progress of PARADIS identification techniques, discuss the merits and demerits of existing PARADIS identification schemes and provide a summary of the current state of the art. Moreover, we propose a new authentication scheme based on PRARDIS and discuss its security and feasibility in the SAE/LTE application. We also highlight the open problems of PRARDIS and motivate future works.
