在过去的几十年里，医疗保健技术的最新进步沿着医疗保健的改善，导致预期寿命稳步增长。因此，我们目睹了世界各地老年人人数的显著增长。近年来，确保老年人舒适的生活环境受到了广泛关注。通过利用信息和通信技术，AAL系统在满足老年人的许多需求方面显示出巨大的潜力，使他们能够安全，安全，健康和独立地生活。在过去的几年里，已经提出了各种AAL系统，主要是基于无线体域网技术，以提高老年人的生活质量。由于AAL系统中传输的信息非常个人化，因此这些数据的安全性和隐私性正成为必须处理的重要问题。我们首先讨论了一个典型的AAL系统的整体系统架构及其相关的安全要求。接下来，我们提出了一个有效的认证协议的AAL系统，并描述它如何满足各种安全要求。最后，我们比较了所提出的认证协议的性能与其他两个最近的认证协议，并证明其上级效率。
Recent advances in healthcare technologies along with improved medical care have led to a steady increase in life expectancy over the past few decades. As a result, we have been witnessing a significant growth in the number of elderly people around the world. Ensuring a comfortable living environment for elderly people has gained much attention in recent years. By leveraging information and communication technologies, the AAL system shows great promise in satisfying many requirements of elderly people and enables them to live safely, securely, healthily, and independently. Over the last few years various AAL systems, mostly based on Wireless Body Area Network technologies, have been proposed to improve the quality of life of elderly people. Since the information transmitted in AAL systems is very personal, the security and privacy of such data are becoming important issues that must be dealt with. We first discuss the overall system architecture of a typical AAL system and its associated security requirements. Next we propose an efficient authentication protocol for the AAL system and describe how it meets various security requirements. Finally we compare the performance of the proposed authentication protocol with two other recent authentication protocols and demonstrate its superior efficiency.
