Abstract:
The widespread use of Internet of Things (IoT) has stimulated the invention of new communication technologies like Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) and Narrow Band-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) belonging to Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies. The wide use of these technologies brings new requirements like mobility management. Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is a network-based mobility management protocol. However, integrating PMIPv6 in LPWAN rises a special challenge due to LPWAN constraints. In addition, PMIPv6 does not provide secure access to the operator domain. In this paper, we propose a new PMIPv6-based mobility solution for LoRaWAN boosted with an authentication scheme to access the operator domain and make this solution resist several types of attacks. In addition, we evaluate the performance of our scheme and we compare it with other works. Finally, we evaluate the security of the new scheme using Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA) tool.
