Abstract
Mobile wireless networks are widely used in our daily lives. Seamless handover occurs frequently and how to guarantee security and efficiency during handover procedure is a major challenge. A handover authentication protocol with nice properties can achieve goals. Protocols proposed in recent years more or less have some security vulnerability. In this paper, we outline security requirements for handover authentication protocols and then propose an anonymous protocol based on a new attribute-based signature scheme. The proposed protocol realizes conditional privacy preserving, user revocation, and session key update as well as mutual authentication and anonymity. Besides, it achieves fine-grained access control due to attributes representing real identity. What is more, experiment shows the proposed protocol has a superior performance.
