Providing an effective key management scheme to increase transaction security of homogeneous mobile wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Network security is one of the key concerns with wireless sensor networks. Because sensor nodes employ radio channel frequencies, which are riskier than traditional networks, the attacker may be able to force the node to compromise, disrupt data integrity, eavesdrop, or insert false data into the network, wasting network resources. Creating dependable sensor networks that offer the highest level of security while using the fewest resources is thus one of the problems. The designers of wireless sensor networks can take into account providing an efficient key management system that can enhance any efficiency features such as communication overhead, calculation rate, memory demand, and energy consumption rate. The energy level of nodes is determined in this article using a novel approach based on fuzzy systems and simple to implement in both hardware and software. In this study, the memory needed to carry out the plan was decreased, and the search performance was raised by integrating elliptic curve cryptography with an AVL search tree and a LEACH model. Also, the frequency range of radio channels in this study is 2.4 GHz. Based on the theoretical analysis as well as the outcomes of the experiments, the suggested key management strategy for wireless sensor networks improves security while also reducing computational overhead by 23%, energy consumption by 14%, and memory consumption parameters by 14%. 18% of people have used the network. Additionally, it was demonstrated that the suggested approach is scalable and extendable. Because of this, the suggested technique has a wide range of applications in massive wireless sensor networks.
