Abstract

Sridhar K, M. Sandeep and D. Sagar

Now a day's customers are more interested in value-added mobile applications. In order to attract more customers to such mobile applications, a solid, secure and robust trading model is necessity. This paper proposes such a secure trading model named Mobile Electronic Payment (MEP) for the mobile commerce (m-commerce) over wireless mobile networks, which applies the emerging ID-based cryptography for key agreement and authentication. Our MEP attempts to ease the computational cost, reduce the memory space requirement in mobile devices, and meet the requirements for secure trading: avoidance of excessiveness and double expenditure, fairness, user ambiguity and privacy. Our design is transparent to the bearer networks and is of low deployment cost. We expect that our MEP provides a viable trading architecture model for the future mobile applications.
