Abstract :
This paper, presents a detailed review of the works on pairing algorithm and its application in Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). WSNs device is a device that resource constrained, limited memory storage and open to a third party attack. This issue has been widely recognized and much research has been in this area, improving the hardware and the software. The main focus of many scholars was on the pairing algorithm which applied with Identity Based Scheme. By investigating works on pairing, studies found that, Ate pairing is currently the fastest pairing algorithm available. This research is hope to enhance current understanding on the 32-bit platform on the future work.
