Research and improvement on the limitation of authentication test

This paper elaborated on the limitation of authentication test theorem, illustrated the fundamental cause of that limitation through examples, then enhanced authentication test to solve this problem, and also proved the soundness of that improvement with formal method.The enhaneed theory can deal with protocols with test component as proper subterm of other regular node's component under certain conditions, and extend the application scope of authentication test.With enhanced authentication test, the automatic protocol verification tools will be more efficient and convenient.
