Abstract

With the increase in mobile traffic and the band-width demand, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has gained tremendous interest by the researchers, cellular operators and equipment manufacturers. However, D2D communication has been limited to study the converge services at cell edge. D2D users that located outside the cellular network coverage haven’t received enough attention. Some of the problems faced in this case are discovering process of neighbor user equipment (UE) and services, as well as designing suitable and secure protocols for D2D communication. Toward these problems, in this paper, we propose security enhancement for D2D communication based on modified elliptic curve cryptography (MECC), which provides greater efficiency in computational overhead, key sizes and bandwidths for user’s authentication applied on proactive routing protocol for neighbor and service discovery. We study Diffie–Hellman, ElGamal and MECC techniques to improve service of D2D users at cell edge. Results show that the proposed scheme can strength the secrecy with less control overhead and can increase the robustness in a wide range of scenarios for service discovery in D2D networks.
