AUTHENTICATION METHOD, TRUSTED ENVIRONMENT UNIT AND HOME NODEB

摘要

An authentication method, trusted environment (TrE) unit and home nodeB (HNB) are disclosed in embodiments of the present invention. The method includes: performing equipment identity authentication for HNB, performing identity authentication for TrE which is set in said HNB, performing authentication for the identity binding relationship between said HNB and said TrE, performing non-identity authentication for said HNB, and obtaining the non-identity authentication data of said HNB and storing it in said TrE. Embodiments of the present invention take full advantage of the characteristics of the TrE and store the non-identity authentication data obtained after the first HNB authentication in the TrE. When the HNB restarts, related non-identity authentication can be executed by the TrE, and thus the burden of HNB authentication on network side is reduced.
