Abstract

Security of wireless network is vital research area for the researchers and scientists. This work demonstrates a deep study of security levels in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). This study includes different security schemes of WLAN like Security Aware Packet Scheduling Algorithm (SPSS), Automated Security-Aware Packet Scheduling (ASPS), Bio-cryptic Security-Aware Packet Scheduling (BSPS), Enhanced Bio-cryptic Security-Aware Packet Scheduling (EBSPS), Enhanced Merged Bio-cryptic Security-Aware Packet Scheduling (EMBSPS) and Multi Merged Bio-cryptic Security-Aware Packet Scheduling (MMBSPS). To analyze the performance of the each algorithm some simulations were conducted by considering different parameters like Security Level (SL), size of Wireless Data Packet (WDP), Speedy Authentication (SA) and Load- on-network Switch (LOS). The simulations were performed using Matlab and Network Simulator-2. Finally our experiment result concludes that, each algorithm has got its own advantages and limitations.
