Bluetooth technology provides peer-to-peer communications over short distances. This paper presents a security scheme that aims at automating the PIN exchange procedure with the help of AAA infrastructure in WiFi-overlapped WPANs (Wireless Personal Access Network). The proposed security scheme contributes to providing an automatic set-up for security channel, particularly between a pair of unknown Bluetooth devices.
