An ECC-Based Secure Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network

In this paper, the problems of secure routing for wireless sensor network are studied. According to the special secure routing requirements of the WSN, an ECC based secure routing algorithm for WSN is presented and implemented. This algorithm has the advantages of low energy consumption, light delay and high delivery. The signature and authentication based on ECC are introduced in the process of routing, which can exclude the malicious nodes from joining the route and ensure the security of data transmission and the integrity of data. Simulation results and analysis show that the performances of this protocol are efficient. Copyright © 2014 IFSA Publishing, S. L.
