Abstract
As the portable devices are becoming popular, the demand for ubiquitous Internet access services has grown extremely. However the increasing demand for ubiquitous services imposes more security threats to communications due to open mediums in wireless networks. The further widespread deployment of Wireless IP networks, however, depends on whether secure networking can be achieved. We propose an efficient authentication framework for wireless mobile network, which is based on one-time password (OTP) mechanism. Further we have simulated the implementation of proposed scheme and EAP-TLS and analyzed the performance in terms of various performance metrics.
