论文摘要
随着海上运营朝着使用机器人资产的异质组合的转变,水下的安全数字无线通信已成为一个关键问题,并且随着数字系统的安全性在所有领域中受到挑战。同时,水下信号编码和物理层选项的增殖提供了更大的带宽和灵活性,但主要没有互操作性所需的标准。我们在这里解决了对安全的基本要求,即对资产身份的确认也称为身份验证。我们建议,实施,验证和验证基于第一个数字水下通信标准的身份验证协议。我们的计划主要适用于在海上石油和天然气设施周围运行的AUV,也适用于将来可能还具有声学调制解调器的其他水下设备。它使包括命令和控制在内的沟通更加安全,并为开发更复杂的安全机制提供了基础。
Secure digital wireless communication underwater has become a key issue as maritime operations shift towards employing a heterogeneous mix of robotic assets and as the security of digital systems becomes challenged across all domains. At the same time, a proliferation of underwater signal coding and physical layer options are delivering greater bandwidth and flexibility, but mostly without the standards necessary for interoperability. We address here an essential requirement for security, namely a confirmation of asset identities also known as authentication. We propose, implement, verify and validate an authentication protocol based on the first digital underwater communications standard. Our scheme is applicable primarily to AUVs operating around offshore oil and gas facilities, but also to other underwater devices that may in the future have acoustic modems. It makes communication including command and control significantly more secure and provides a foundation for the development of more sophisticated security mechanisms.
