On the impact of quality of protection in wireless local area networks with IP mobility

Agarwal, A. K., & Wang, W. (2007, February). MOBILE NETWORKS & APPLICATIONS, Vol. 12, pp. 93–110.

By: A. Agarwal n & W. Wang n

author keywords: wireless local area networks; quality of service; quality of protection; security protocols; mobile IP; performance analysis
TL;DR: A quality of protection (QoP) model is introduced to indicate the benefits and the performance cost of security protocols in terms of authentication time, cryptographic overhead and throughput and it is found that some protocols are robust against mobility with little variation in system performance; thus, it is possible to provision steady service by choosing security protocols when users' mobility pattern is unknown.
