Lte security authentication protocol in 3GPP/WLAN internetworking

Serving the high demand of high speed cellular communication, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is developing System Architecture Evolution (SAE)/Long Term Evolution (LTE) architecture for the next generation mobile communication system. The SAE/LTE architecture provides secured access f...

The SAE/LTE architecture provides secured access for mobile user to non-3GPP network such as WLAN.

As a result, the interconnection between 3GPP-WLAN networks brings users a combined advantage.

Based on this analysis, we suggest some modification for the Improved EAP – AKA protocol to make it feasible and able to prevent Man-in-the-middle attack more effectively. In the end, we create a model in SPIN to simulate the authentication and attack process and verify the protocol.
