Abstract
A new key agreement protocol based on a shared conference password proposed in this paper. With this protocol, it provides an efficient algorithm and takes less computation cost to construct a secret communication channel. Besides, the honest participants can use password to authenticate themselves. The proposed scheme is suitable to apply in Ad Hoc Networks. It also provides an efficient protocol to reconstruct new session key when some members join or leave the conference.
