Authentication protocols on wireless ad hoc networks

Comparatively with classical wired networks, wireless networks offer many advantages to their users. But in addition to this, it is very important to provide secure conditions for such network. In classic wired connections, it is difficult to interrupt local networks, but wireless connections have much more sensibilities about it. In this thesis, were mentioned wireless network technologies, which are getting more popular. Structure, properties, security conditions of networks analyzed and presented. Also several security techniques on ad hoc wireless networks, like authentication, authorization were mentioned and principles of several authentication protocols researched. At the implementation part of this study, there was applied authentication simulation using Delphi platform.
