  Abstract

The attacker can access the RFID systems illegally because authentication operation on the RFID systems are performed in wireless communication. Authentication methods based on the PUF were presented to defend attacks. Because of Hash and AES, the cost is expensive for the low-cost RFID tag. In this paper, the PUF-based encryption processor and the mutual authentication protocol are proposed for low-cost RFID authentication. The challenge-response pairs (PUF"s input and output) are utilized as the authentication key and encrypted by the PUF"s characteristics. The encryption method is changed each session and XOR operation with random number is utilized. Therefore, it is difficult for the attacker to analyze challenge-response pairs and attack the systems. In addition, the proposed method with PUF is strong against physical attacks. And the method protects the tag cloning attack by physical attacks because there is no authentication data in the tag. Proposed processor is implemented at low cost with small footprint and low power.
