Abstract :

A sensor node is composed of different parts including processing units, sensor, transmitter, receiver, and security unit. There are many nodes in a sensor unit. These networks can be used for military, industrial, medicine, environmental, house, and many other applications. These nodes may be established in the lands of enemies to monitor the relations. Hence, it is important to consider conservation of communications, declaration, and key removal. The locations of nodes are not usually defined in the networks. When a secure connection is required they can be used by symmetrical or asymmetrical encodings. A node can just make secure connection, if they are in same radio range or have a common key. In dynamic wireless sensor networks compared with static networks the sensors are moveable and can be added or removed. This research makes an attempt to investigate the challenges of key management for encoding. It also tries to solve other remained problems in this field. Therefore, distribution and key management schemes supplying security and operational requirements of sensor networks are examined in fuzzy clustering and suitable protocol for key management.
