Abstract :
Based on existing problems of security in wireless sensor networks, this paper analyzes the resistance against capture, network connectivity extending and memory overhead among random key pre-distribution schemes, q-composite pre-distribution schemes and symmetric key algorithm. A novel random key algorithm is proposed combining random and authentication. Finally, the algorithm is compared with any other algorithm. The simulation results show that the algorithm is superior to others in security and feasibility.
