Abstract

Security measures of mobile infrastructures have always been important from the early days of the creation of cellular networks. Nowadays, however, the traditional security schemes require a more fundamental approach to cover the entire path from the mobile user to the server. This fundamental approach is so-called end-to-end (E2E) security coverage. The main focus of this chapter is to discuss such architectures for IEEE 802.16e (Mobile-WiMAX) and major third generation (3G) cellular networks. The E2E implementations usually contain a complete set of algorithms, protocol enhancements (mutual identification, authentications, and authorization), including the very large-scale integration (VLSI) implementations. This chapter discusses various proposals at the protocol level.
