Abstract
With the increasing demand for Internet of Things (IoT) network applications, the lack of adequate identification and authentication has become a significant security concern. Radio frequency fingerprinting techniques, which utilize regular radio traffic as the identification source, were then proposed to provide a more secured identification approach compared to traditional security methods. Such solutions take hardware-level characteristics as device fingerprints to mitigate the risk of pre-shared key leakage and lower computational complexity. However, the existing studies suffer from problems such as location dependence. In this study, we have proposed a novel scheme for further exploiting the spectrogram and the carrier frequency offset (CFO) as identification sources. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is chosen as the classifier. The scheme addressed the location-dependence problem in the existing identification schemes. Experimental evaluations with data collected in the real world have indicated that the proposed approach can achieve 80% accuracy even if the training and testing data are collected on different days and at different locations, which is 13% higher than state-of-the-art approaches.
