ab: Summary: Pairwise key establishment in mobile ad hoc networks allows any
    pair of nodes to agree upon a shared key. This is an important security
    service needed to secure routing protocols, and in general to
    facilitate secure communication among the nodes of the network.  We
    present two self-keying mechanisms for pairwise key establishment in
    mobile ad hoc networks which do not require any centralized support.
    The mechanisms are built using the well-known technique of threshold
    secret sharing, and are robust and secure against a collusion of up to
    a certain number of nodes. We evaluate and compare the performance of
    both the mechanisms in terms of the node admission and pairwise key
    establishment.
