Abstract
Wireless technology is rapidly evolving, and is playing
an important role in the lives of people throughout the world.
Due to the nature of open guide medium of wireless
communications, it is possible for an adversary to snoop on
confidential communications or modify them to gain access to the
wireless networks more easily than with wired networks, which
has been drawing great attentions. In this paper, we focus on
improving the security of IEEE 802.11 networks through secure
key distribution using Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) which
offer unconditional security between two communication parties.
In our previous research work, we have demonstrated a novel
protocol using quantum cryptography for secure key distribution
in IEEE 802.11 networks. In our current paper, we analysis the
experimental results we obtained in our previous research works,
which will be focusing on the reconciliation phase of this
protocol.
