Trust Management Method of D2D Communication Based on RF Fingerprint Identification

Abstract

iWith the rapid development and the increasing security threats of D2D communication, the D2D communication security has become more and more important. Device recognition is the foundation of communication security. Traditional device authentication is the cryptographic mechanism and the security protocol that are not enough for the new security threat. RF fingerprint of wireless device has physical characteristics, which is difficult to clone. Therefore, it can be used for D2D device recognition. In this paper, a recognition algorithm of D2D device based on RF fingerprint is proposed. First, Hilbert transform and principal component analysis is used to generate the RF fingerprint of D2D device. Second, support vector machine (SVM) is introduced and CV-SVM is used as the classifier. Finally, simulation results show that the recognition rate is more than 90% under SNR = 5 dB, which proves that the proposed method is effective for D2D device recognition. Therefore, it can be used as the trust management of D2D communication.
