“…Short payloads and latency constraints of MTC traffic, and the limited computational capabilities of the devices, demand more scalable solutions for authentication processes. Lightweight and flexible solutions like group-based authentication schemes, anonymous serviceoriented authentication strategies to manage a large number of authentication requests [10], lightweight physicallayer authentication, and the integration of authentication with access protocols [11] represent promising solutions that are likely to be adopted in 6G.…”

While 5G is being rolled out in different parts of the globe, few research groups around the world − such as the Finnish 6G Flagship program − have already started posing the question: What will 6G be? The 6G vision is a data-driven society, enabled by near instant unlimited wireless connectivity. Driven by impetus to provide vertical-specific wireless network solutions, machine type communication encompassing both its mission critical and massive connectivity aspects is foreseen to be an important cornerstone of 6G development. This article presents an over-arching vision for machine type communication in 6G. In this regard, some relevant performance indicators are first anticipated, followed by a presentation of six key enabling technologies.

“…5G enables IoT to have higher transmission speed and capacity and lower transmission delay and can provide high coverage and massive device deployment for the Internet of ings applications [2,3]. ese massively connected terminal devices simultaneously initiate authentication requests, which will have a serious impact on the authentication server [9][10][11]. In traditional authentication mechanisms, a centralized mechanism is usually used, as in Figure 1(a), where all devices are authenticated through a centrally located authentication server.…”

“…Traditional authentication schemes are usually centralized, which has high latency and untimely response problems in the 5G mass IoT device access scenario [6]. On the one hand, the authentication server or network node will have serious network congestion when massive IoT devices ask for authentication in this era where IoT devices are ubiquitous, and this will seriously affect the service quality of IoT applications [7][8][9][10][11]. On the other hand, centralized authentication usually requires the authentication center to respond to the authentication request of the IoT device.…”

The fifth-generation mobile communication technology (5G) provides high-bandwidth and low-latency data channels for massive IoT terminals to access the core business network. At the same time, it also brings higher security threats and challenges. Terminal identity authentication is an important security mechanism to ensure the core business network; however, most of the existing solutions adopt a centralized authentication model. Once the number of authentication requests exceeds the processing capacity of the authentication center service, it will cause authentication request congestion or deadlock. The decentralized authentication model can effectively solve the above problems. This article proposes a decentralized IoT authentication scheme called A2 Chain. First, A2 Chain uses edge computing to decentralize the processing of authentication requests and eliminate the burden on authentication services and the network. Second, to implement cross-domain identity verification of IoT devices, A2 Chain uses blockchain, and sidechain technologies are used to securely share the identity verification information of IoT devices. Additionally, A2 Chain replaces public key infrastructure (PKI) algorithm with identity-based cryptography (IBC) algorithm to eliminate the management overhead caused by centralized authentication model.

“…Communication nodes have characteristics of a dense distribution, high concurrent communication, low communication delay, and dynamic migration. The network will be confronted with many problems, such as the real-time generation and management of key distribution between massive communication nodes, which also brings new challenges to providing security for traditional wireless communications [23][24][25][26].…”

The 5th-generation mobile communication system (5G) has higher security requirements than previous systems. Accordingly, international standard organizations, operators, and equipment manufacturers are focusing extensively on 5G security technology. This paper analyzes the security requirements of 5G business applications, network architecture, the air interface, and user privacy. The development trends of 5G security architecture are summarized, with a focus on endogenous defense architecture, which represents a new trend in 5G security development. Several incremental 5G security technologies are reviewed, including physical layer security, lightweight encryption, network slice security, user privacy protection, and block chain technology applied to 5G.
