A Low-cost RFID Authentication Protocol with Location Privacy Protection

RFID system is gaining popularity and attracting interest from both the enterprises and academic institutes. But now, we face several security problems and challenges in RFID systems. In human centric applications, location privacy problem is the most important issue that should be solved. In this paper, we propose a RFID authentication scheme that achieves the goal of location privacy. We also cite the threat model to analysis security threat of our protocol. Moreover, our scheme can be implemented with low-cost and high efficiency.
