Decentralized authentication in dynamic mobile networks faces significant challenges due to high node mobility, resource constraints, and vulnerabilities to side-channel attacks. In this work, we present MobiAuth, a blockchain-driven framework based on Hyperledger Iroha and OMNET++ that enables secure, peer-to-peer authentication using compact Ed25519 signatures and ephemeral session keys. Our protocol eliminates single points of failure by distributing trust across a permissioned ledger and employs constant-time cryptographic operations to thwart timing and power-analysis attacks. We validate MobiAuth through co-simulation in OMNET++ integrated with Iroha via a Python gRPC bridge and benchmark its performance with Hyperledger Caliper.
Simulation yields 95% packet delivery with an authentication latency ranging from 12 ms in the only OMNeT++ and baseline to 20–150ms in the full ledger-integrated system, and a ledger write throughput of 250tps. Comparative experiments demonstrate a 33% reduction in communication overhead and robust operation under random Control Point failures and Byzantine Access Node behavior. Analysis of on-device ledger synchronization further highlights practical storage growth and bandwidth requirements for long-term deployment. These results indicate that MobiAuth achieves strong security and privacy with modest energy impact, scalable performance, and compatibility with mobile devices in real-world network environments.
