Quantum-Resistance Authentication and Data Transmission Scheme for NB-IoT in 3GPP 5G Networks

Pu Yu, Jin Ping Cao, Maode Ma +3 more

The Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) system has become an important branch of the Internet of Everything and is an indispensable part in future fifth Generation (5G) network. However, there is currently no effective access authentication scheme for the NB-IoT system in the future 5G network. According to the current 3GPP standard, NB-IoT devices still use the traditional access authentication method to perform the mutual authentication with the network, which may bring a lot of signaling and communication overheads. This problem will be more prominent when sea of NB-IoT devices simultaneously are activated in the 5G network. In this paper, we propose a quantum-resistance access authentication and data distribution scheme for massive NB-IoT devices. This scheme can implement access authentication and data transmission for a group of NB-IoT devices at the same time based on the lattice-based homomorphic encryption technology. Our scheme can not only greatly reduce the network burden, but also can achieve the strong security including privacy protection and resisting quantum attacks. Performance analysis results show that our solution has the desired efficiency.

Efficient access authentication for quantum communication network with digital certificates

Min Wang, Jianxing Guo, Wei Zhang +1 more

Digital certificate offers an efficient way to realize the access authentication which safeguards the first line of secure communication. In this paper, we propose an access authentication scheme with digital certificates based on post-quantum standards published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology for quantum communication networks. Specifically, we experimentally demonstrate the secure access authentication of the quantum channel by verifying the signatures encoded in quantum states in a quantum secure direct communication network. Only the post-quantum digital signature algorithm is needed in the experiment. Together with secure relays, we envision the establishment of a large-scale quantum-secure communication network in the future.

Anti-Quantum Fast Authentication and Data Transmission Scheme for Massive Devices in 5G NB-IoT System

Jin Ping Cao, Pu Yu, Xinyin Xiang +2 more

The narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) system has become an integral part of the future fifth generation (5G) network. Although the NB-IoT system has gradually been improved in the traditional LTE network currently, the NB-IoT system does not have an effective access authentication scheme in the future 5G network. According to the current 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard, NB-IoT devices still use the traditional access authentication method to perform mutual authentication with the network, which may bring a large amount of signaling and communication overhead. This problem will be magnified in a large-scale device environment in the future 5G network. In this article, a quantum resistance access authentication and data distribution scheme is proposed for large-scale NB-IoT devices. The scheme can simultaneously implement access authentication and data transmission of a group of NB-IoT devices based on the lattice-based homomorphic encryption technology. Our scheme not only greatly reduce the network burden but also achieve strong security, including privacy protection and anti-quantum attacks. The performance analysis results show that our scheme has the ideal efficiency.
