5G-oriented information sharing mechanism within D2D clusters by Shaomin WANG, Bin ZHOU

“…Device-to-Device（D2D）communication is an important technology in 5G network.It helps to improve the transmission efficiency of data dissemination services.However,due to the extra signaling overhead caused by D2D communications,currently most of enhanced-multicast solutions cannot solve the contradiction between high-efficient data transmission and low-efficient signaling procedure,so as to reduce the overall performance gain.An intra-cluster D2D information sharing algorithm based on matrix analysis which includes centralized and distributed modes was proposed.The proposed algorithm could significantly reduce D2D retransmission times in clusters by adaptively selecting the optimal transmitters and data packets for D2D multicast retransmission,achieving the aim of reducing signaling overhead and transmission delay.…”

Lightweight security architecture design for wireless sensor network by Chao WANG, Guang-yue HU, Huan-guo ZHANG

“…Most previous security proposal did not consider key management or their authentication efficiency was very low.Lightweight security architecture and lightweight security algorithm were proposed for wireless sensor network,The problem of network encounters malicious nodes maybe occur in the procedure of backbone networks networking could be solved by threshold secret sharing mechanism.The lightweight ECC was proposed to optimize the CPK architecture based on normal ECC,authentication was efficient without the third-party CA,and could reduce the computational complexity,the key management could meet the resource limit in wireless sensor network,and the key security depended on the exponential computation complexity of the elliptic discrete logarithm decomposition.The scheme used the improved two-way authentication to ensure the communication security between common node and sink node,which could prevent man-in-the-middle attack.…”
