Dataset for authentication and authorization using physical layer properties in indoor environment

Abstract

The proliferation landscape of the Internet of Things (IoT) has accentuated the critical role of Authentication and Authorization (AA) mechanisms in securing interconnected devices. There is a lack of relevant datasets that can aid in building appropriate machine learning enabled security solutions focusing on authentication and authorization using physical layer characteristics. In this context, our research presents a novel dataset derived from real-world scenarios, utilizing Zigbee Zolertia Z1 nodes to capture physical layer properties in indoor environments. The dataset encompasses crucial parameters such as Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), Link Quality Indicator (LQI), Device Internal Temperature, Device Battery Level, and more, providing a comprehensive foundation for advancing Machine learning enabled AA in IoT ecosystems.
