A Robust Multimodal Biometric Authentication Technique For Mobile Adhoc Network

Abstract

In the present scenario, biometrics has shown wide implication for authentication systems to newlineprove an individual identity. The most leading modalities in this regard are fingerprint, face and newlineiris despite of the fact that with time biometric identification need some sort of refinement. The newlineterm security and authorized access is basic requirement of any service provider, whether it is a newlinecommunication network, social network even in wireless communication. Basically, the newlinemeasures of authentication cannot be stated as secured due to various security issues inside the newlinenetwork. In today s world of biometric, the question is how a biometric based authentication newlinecan be utilized for authorized communication of data in Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET). newlineSince, inside the network every single node is not responsibility of the network administrator newlineuntil the nodes are authenticated. The biometric based authentication system technologies such newlineas fingerprint, face recognition, and iris recognition are used in variety of applications that can newlinevary on the basis of several criterions like privacy impact, operational environment and newlineperformance requirements. Reliable authentication of an individual is an increasing demanding newlineservice in many applications. In many areas, not only in the police and legal environments, but newlinealso in civilian applications (like access control or financial transactions), there is an increasing newlinedemand for reliable identity verification of a personnel. newline
