摘要
In this work we investigate position-based enhancements to indoor Wi-Fi network security. Specifically, we investigate whether received signal strength (RSS) measurements can identify attempts at network access by malicious nodes exterior to an authorized network perimeter. We assume the malicious nodes will spoof their received or transmitted power-levels in attempts to circumvent standard position-based security techniques. We outline why residual analysis of the RSS measurements cannot robustly identify illegal network access requests. However, we show that by referencing the residual RSS analysis to a "claimed position," interior to the authorized perimeter, a robust position-based verification system for secure network access can be developed.
