 Author(s): Christian Gehrmann, Joakim Persson, Ben Smeets Publisher: Artech House Year: Jun 2004 ISBN: 1580535046 Language: English File type: PDF Pages: 221 Size (for download): 0.7 MB This first-of-its-kind book, from expert authors actively contributing to the evolution of Bluetooth specifications, provides an overview and detailed descriptions of all the security functions and features of this standard’s latest core release. After categorizing all the security issues involved in ad hoc networking, this hands-on volume shows you how to design a highly secure Bluetooth system and implement security enhancements. The book also helps you fully understand the main security risks involved with introducing Bluetooth-based communications in your organization. This cutting-edge resource examines all known attacks on Bluetooth security mechanisms and their implementations, demonstrating how some of these known weaknesses can be avoided with appropriate defensive measures. The book presents concrete examples of how to design security solutions for some Bluetooth applications and products built on these applications. You find real-world case studies including technical algorithms, mechanisms and protocols, and security architectures. These architectures offer valuable guidelines for use in building Bluetooth and non-Bluetooth-specific security mechanisms. TABLE OF CONTENT: Chapter 01 - Introduction Chapter 02 - Overview Of The Bluetooth Security Architecture Chapter 03 - Bluetooth Pairing And Key Management Chapter 04 - Algorithms Chapter 05 - Broadcast Encryption Chapter 06 - Security Policies and Access Controls Chapter 07 - Attacks, Strengths And Weaknesses Chapter 08 - Providing Anonymity Chapter 09 - Key Management Extensions Chapter 10 - Security For Bluetooth Application  Written by leading authority Ramjee Prasad, this timely new work offers a complete understanding of OFDM technology and applications in wireless communications systems, placing emphasis on wireless LANs and PANs. OFDM is a key technology for beyond 3G communications, promising robust, high capacity, high speed wireless broadband multimedia networks. In this practical resource, established and new technologies are explained clearly and comprehensively, from OFDM basics to a detailed account of a new technique, hybrid OFDM CDMA slow frequency hopping. About the Author Ramjee Prasad is director of the Center for Teleinfrastruktur (CTIF), Aalborg University. He is the coauthor of Technology Trends in Wireless Communications, WLANs and WPANs towards 4G Wireless, Simulation and Software Radio for Mobile Communications, and OFDM for Wireless Multimedia Communications (Artech House, 2003, 2003, 2002, 2000), co-editor of Wireless IP and Building the Mobile Internet and WCDMA: Towards IP Mobility and Mobile Internet (Artech House, 2003, 2001), and is the author/co-author of several other books published by Artech House.  This book describes how to build wireless sensor networks, from the
layers of communication protocols through the design of network nodes.
It summarizes the multiple applications of wireless sensor networks,
then discusses network device design and the requirements that foster
the successful performance of these applications. The book discusses
factors affecting network design, including the partitioning of node
functions into integrated circuits, low power system design, power
sources, and the interaction between antenna selection and product
design. It presents design techniques that improve electromagnetic
compatibility and reduce damage from electrostatic discharge. The text
also describes the design features of the wireless devices.  This is the first book that provides readers
with a deep technical overview of recent advances in resource
management for wireless networks at different layers of the protocol
stack. The subject is explored in various wireless networks, such as ad
hoc wireless networks, 3G/4G cellular, IEEE 802.11, and Bluetooth
personal area networks.
Survey chapters give an excellent introduction to key topics in
resource management for wireless networks, while experts will be
satisfied by the technical depth of the knowledge imparted in chapters
exploring hot research topics.
The subject area discussed in this book is very relevant today,
considering the recent remarkable growth of wireless networking and the
convergence of wireless personal communications, internet technologies
and real-time multimedia.
This volume is a very good companion for practitioners working on
implementing solutions for multimedia and Quality of Service –
sensitive applications over wireless networks.  Once you get your wireless network up and running, you'll wonder how you got along without it. And you'll wonder how home and small business users survived before Geeks On Call. This book is jam-packed with simple steps, quick solutions, and basic information to make setting up and using your wireless network easier and safer than ever before. The Geeks give you the most efficient ways to build, secure, and troubleshoot a network that meets all your needs. * Know what you need before you buy * Set up and connect your network * Install and configure wireless components * Protect your wireless network * Make the most of network features * Add printers, video game adapters, and digital media players * Maintain and troubleshoot your network * Solve common problems |
