Security-Aware Packet Scheduling Scheme with Multi-Level Queuing and RSA

Emerging security-aware packet scheduling algorithms can efficiently improve the security measures while forwarding the packets over wireless links. Existing scheduling algorithms for real-time wireless networks are not capable of providing higher level of security. The proposed methodology overcomes the difficulties in the existing scheduling algorithm with the security enhancements. A multilevel queue scheduling algorithm is used to partition the ready queue into several separate queues.For security reasons, the proposed methodology uses the RSA algorithm for encrypting and decrypting the packets. The proposed Security-aware Packet Scheduling (SPS) methodology strives to improve the security levels while achieving high schedulability for real-time packets. The proposed model reduces the congestion occurred during scheduling the packets.The performance of the proposed method results better security than the existing Quality Based Searching algorithm. Also, the system takes lesser time, reduces congestion and traffic also provides higher arrival rate for scheduling the packets.
