RHDP-Scheme for RFID’s Efficiency Improvement on the Ubiquitous Computing

초록

In the near future, RFID will be used at practical fields such as supply chain management, stock management, and so on. However, some barriers such as price of chipset and RFID user information privacy protection exist in widely using it in public. So, recently time-memory trade-off was disclosed to reduce the amount of calculation with user’s information privacy protecting scheme utilizing hash-chain, meeting indistinguishable forward security. However, it requires a long pre-calculation time, causing the problem of scalability. In this paper, we propose scheme (RHDP: Real-time Hash-chain Decreasing Pre-calculation) to reduce pre-calculation time that is the biggest problem in time-memory trade-off. The proposed scheme can shorten the authentication time and improve its scalability and efficiency of RFID. © 2006, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
