Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely used in large areas of applications; due to advancements in technology, very tiny sensors are readily available, and their usage reduces the cost. The mechanisms designed for wireless networks cannot be implied on networks with tiny nodes due to battery and computational constraints. Understanding the significance of security in WSNs and resource constraintness of tiny WSNs, we propose a node authentication mechanism for nodes in wireless sensor networks to avoid security attacks and establish secure communication between them. In the proposed mechanism, a base station (BS) generates a secret value and random value for each sensor node and stores at the node. The sensor node authenticates using secret value and random number. Random nonce ensures freshness, efficiency, and robustness. The proposed mechanism is lightweight cryptographic, hence requires very less computational, communication, and storage resources. Security analysis of the proposed mechanism could not detect any security attack on it, and the mechanism was found to incur less storage, communication, and computation overheads. Hence, the proposed mechanism is best suitable for wireless sensor networks with tiny nodes.

简单，安全，轻巧的机制，可在小型无线传感器网络中相互认证节点

无线传感器网络（WSN）广泛用于广泛的应用领域。由于技术的进步，非常小的传感器随时可用，并且其使用降低了成本。由于电池和计算的限制，无法将无线网络设计的机制隐含在具有微小节点的网络上。了解无线传感器网络中安全性的重要性以及小型无线传感器网络的资源约束后，我们为无线传感器网络中的节点提出了一种节点认证机制，以避免安全攻击并在它们之间建立安全的通信。在所提出的机制中，基站（BS）为每个传感器节点生成秘密值和随机值并存储在该节点处。传感器节点使用秘密值和随机数进行身份验证。随机随机数确保新鲜度，效率和鲁棒性。所提出的机制是轻量级的密码，因此需要非常少的计算，通信和存储资源。对该机制的安全性分析无法检测到对该机制的任何安全攻击，并且发现该机制产生的存储，通信和计算开销更少。因此，所提出的机制最适合于具有微小节点的无线传感器网络。
