Abstract

In this paper, we first propose the security enhancing of authentication protocol for Hash based RFID tag, and then a digital Codec for RFID tag is designed based on the proposed authentication protocol. The protocol is based on a three-way challenge response authentication protocol between the tags and a back-end server. In order to realize a secure cryptographic authentication mechanism, we modify three types of the protocol packets which defined in the ISO/IEC 18000-3 standard. Thus active attacks such as the Man-in-the-middle and Replay attacks can be easily protected. In order to verify effectiveness of the proposed protocol, a digital Codec for RFID tag is designed using Verilog HDL, and also synthesized using Synopsys Design Compiler with Hynix $0.25\;{\mu}m$ standard-cell library. Through security analysis and comparison result, we will show that the proposed scheme has better performance in user data confidentiality, tag anonymity, Man-in-the-middle attack prevention, replay attack, forgery resistance and location tracking.
