Abstract :
IEEE 802.16 Standard as the advanced wireless air interface technology also faces the inherent security problem of wireless network, especially in its unclearly defined mesh network architecture. This article will focus on the mesh mode and continue the previous work (Fan Yang et al., 2005) to resolve the security problem. Through the analysis of the original scheme in mesh mode, an improved security scheme to resolve security problem in existed standard is proposed
