Abstract

A novel personnel authentication and verification system for devices communicating through Bluetooth protocol has been proposed in this thesis. Unlike existing verification systems which provide password or a PIN as a key, the system uses biometrics features as a key. In the implementation of the scheme, ridges and bifurcation based parameters are derived to generate a 128 bit Bluetooth pairing PIN. In this thesis a unique translational and rotational invariant feature set has been developed. These extracted feature data, unlike traditional systems which include the extracted data into payload, is used for device connection by generating the 128 bit PIN. The system performance is analyzed using the pairing PIN for inter-sample and intra-sample recognition. To validate the stability of the system the performance is analyzed with external samples which are not a part of the internal database.
