Abstract
A keyless methodology to ensure secure data transmission in a network of sensors is presented. The main feature is the low power consumption due to the simplicity of the hardware that has to be implemented within each sensor. Experimental results demonstrate that the power dissipation overhead in each sensor´s system is minimal when compared to key-based security methods. Experimental evidence of the security features of the presented method is also given.
