In ad-hoc networks, mobile nodes are limited by a range of radio coverage and have an irregular source of power due to their battery. In ad-hoc networks, there are a lot of situations that all mobile nodes need to agree on their key not at the same time but in part and then merge themselves subsequently. This is because ad-hoc networks have specific features such as mobility and allow various conditions during configuration. In this thesis, we propose MCP (Merging Clusters Protocol), a simple key agreement scheme that can effectively deal with merging different adjacent clusters in mobile ad-hoc networks. When nodes of each cluster have already agreed on their own group keys and intend to merge themselves for further secure communications, MCP can be used in an efficient and secure way. In addition, it can be utilized for efficient group key agreement in a large ad-hoc network. We analyze the security and efficiency of MCP and discuss the experimental results according to practical implementation scenarios.
