Abstract

In this paper, we investigate location- and identity privacy issues related to the access procedures. The investigation includes subscriber identity management, mobility management at the link layer and the security setup (authentication and key agreement) procedures. The paper also presents a Privacy Enhanced Mobile Authentication and Key Agreement (PEMAKA) protocol that illustrates the concepts and demonstrates that future mobile systems can provide both improved access security and enhanced subscriber privacy.
