Abstract

E-commerce is being gradually replaced by M-commerce due to the popularization of the Internet and mobile phones. An e-payment system for M-commerce applies existing wired system as it is. There are security and inefficiency problems. The limited resources of equipment require the e-payment protocol in the wireless Internet environment to be designed in consideration of efficiency in the computing function and the storage device. The paper suggests an e-payment system for M-commerce that minimizes public key computing and guarantees anonymity concerning personal and purchasing information as well as storage spatial efficiency. The suggested system realizes an e-payment system, using independent J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) based CLDC (connect limited device configuration) and MIDP (mobile information device profile) in the platform in order to support diversified applicational services for M-commerce.
