Abstract
With the increase in mobile traffic and the band-width demand, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has gained tremendous interest by the researchers, cellular operators and equipment manufacturers. However, D2D communication has been limited to study the converge services at cell edge. D2D users that located outside the cellular network coverage haven’t received enough attention. Some of the problems faced in this case are discovering process of neighbor user equipment (UE) and services, as well as designing suitable and secure protocols for D2D communication. Toward these problems, in this paper, we propose security enhancement for D2D communication based on modified elliptic curve cryptography (MECC), which provides greater efficiency in computational overhead, key sizes and bandwidths for user’s authentication applied on proactive routing protocol for neighbor and service discovery. We study Diffie–Hellman, ElGamal and MECC techniques to improve service of D2D users at cell edge. Results show that the proposed scheme can strength the secrecy with less control overhead and can increase the robustness in a wide range of scenarios for service discovery in D2D networks.

1 Introduction D2D communications can set direct link between devices without navigating the core network infrastructure. It can ease the interoperability to progress the spectral efficiency in congested communication networks. D2D communication has earned much importance in 5G networks. The major advantages of D2D communication in 5G networks are (i) offloading the overcrowded cellular traffic, (ii) increasing the coverage of the cell, (iii) progressing energy efficiency, and (iv) permitting high rate transmission. The security of D2D connectivity is considered one of the most important challenging topics [13]. Given the nature of D2D networks, D2D users become less secure than cellular users under the control of evolved node base station (eNB). Different usage scenarios to enable D2D have been discussed. Although different scenarios have their own requirements, a common procedure is always needed [15]. D2D services are separated into three tasks; (a) D2D communication refers to a radio technology that enables devices to communicate directly with each other. It also can exchange data and services between them, (b) Ne
