Abstract :
The existing Peer link establishment protocol documented in IEEE 802.11s standard is not secure and vulnerable against relay and wormhole attacks. To address this issue, an efficient technique using location information, is proposed in this work. Security of the proposed technique is analysed using Simulation Paradigm.
