Abstract
We propose a key pre-distribution scheme based on the complementary design of a Fano plane. The nodes are arranged hierarchically in the form of a 6-nary tree. Key predistribution follows a deterministic approach. Each node in our scheme requires storing significantly less number of secret keys. Our scheme provides better resiliency compared to other existing schemes and reasonable connectivity as well. It can be found that any two nodes are connected either directly or via a key-path. Moreover, any number of nodes can be introduced in the network by assigning a few keys to the newly joined nodes only, without disturbing the existing set-up of the network.
