Abstract
Security provisions are a significant influence in the conception of security system for wireless mesh networks (WMNs). It is therefore necessary to guard the identities of individual clients to avoid personal privacy concerns. Numerous susceptibilities exist in different protocols for WMNs (i.e. Overhead, storage, availability of resources). These ambiguities can be discussed by probable attackers to bring down the network performance. In this manuscript, we offer a secure authentication and signature routing protocol (SASR) based on diffie-helman model and threshold signature for reducing response time and improve the security at mesh node. The proposed approach validates the certification of the mesh nodes effectively and paves the path for secure communication. Since the protocol uses Diffie-Helman key mode and threshold signature, very little key is enough for obtaining the needed protection. This thins out the bandwidth allocation for key, so the security constraints will not move the bandwidth by any means, which is an additional advantage over other systems.
