Abstract

This paper reviews the way in which the security protocolsEAP-SIM/AKA are used in 3G/WLAN network interworking from thepoint of wiew of the U(SIM). As result, a new AAA protocol architectureis derived from the integration of a Network Smart Card, NSC, that implementsU(SIM) functionalities within the scheme. The implementationin a testbed shows the robustness and feasibility of such an architecture.
