Abstract


This study introduces a novel compressed secure Device-to-Device Communication scheme (CSDDCS) based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) to enhance energy-efficient communication in IoT system, particularly in smart cities. The integration of IoT and cloud computing in smart cities necessitate resource Optimization, and enabling direct device-to-device communication is crucial. The CSDDCS employs continuous authentication using compression ECC, where the registration request are encoded from the device during it registration with the server. The authentication message is decoded and analyzed by the server to verify the device’s key component before forwarding the authentication to the next device. Performance evaluation revealed that the CSDDCS outperforms existing schemes with significant reduction in storage requirement, improved communication cost, reduce transmission time, albeit with a slight 2.28% decrease in computational time. The CSDDCS present an efficient and secure solution for IoT device-to-device communication, making it suitable for practical development in smart cities and similar environments.
