Access control based on authentication and authorization is essential to design a good wireless local area network (WLAN). This paper introduces several key authentication technologies of WLAN, including open system authentication and shared key authentication used in IEEE 802.11b standard, EAP used in IEEE802.1x and WAI used in WAPI. Different superiorities and deficiencies have been presented in...
Extensive security is required for wireless networking in health care due to regulations for patient privacy and the necessary availability of protected health information for prescribed entities. IEEE 802.11-2007 and IEEE 802.15.4-2006 are compared with respect to their security provisions in the patient monitoring environment. This study demonstrates that IEEE 802.11-2007 has a slight edge over...
WiMAX technology, the commercialization of the evolving IEEE 802.16 standard, aims to solve the last-mile problem with broadband wireless access at the scale of metropolitan area networks. WiMAX has attracted significant attention and interest because of its wide transmission range, high transmission rate, and mobility support. However, to make WiMAX networks usable and reliable, several security...
