Performance Evaluation of Polynomial Pool-Based Key Pre-Distribution Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network Applications

Abstract

In nowadays, wireless sensor network (WSN) has been established as a leading emerging technology in the field of remote area distributed sensing due to its diverse application areas. Key pre-distribution is an important task in WSN because after the deployment of sensor nodes, their neighbors become strange to each other. To secure the communication, neighbor nodes have to generate a secret shared key, or a key-path must exist between these nodes. In this paper, we have discussed and presented various key pre-distribution protocols, namely, the polynomial pool-based key pre-distribution which is a scheme for creating pairwise keys between sensors on the foundation of a polynomial-based key pre-distribution protocol, introducing two effective instantiations: a random subset assignment key pre-distribution scheme and a grid-based key pre-distribution scheme. Other studied key pre-distribution schemes (KPDS) are Peer Intermediaries Key for Establishment (PIKE) and Group-based key pre-distribution scheme. The performances of these schemes have been assessed through the simulation of different grids under the TinyOS environment.
