Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the performance of a Channel-based FingerPrint (CFP) algorithm incorporated with the conventional higher-layer security mechanism to counteract spoofing in wireless networks. This algorithm utilizes the channel estimation results of the receiver to discriminate among different transmitters, based on the rapid decorrelation property of channel responses. Compared to the previous work, we consider multiple complicated communication scenarios, where the receiver applies CFP to discriminate among multiple transmitters in various transmission patterns in practical network settings. Simulation results provide the required signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) by this algorithm and show the impact of the test threshold and the transmission pattern.
