    Abstract: A node and a method therein, for authenticating a mobile device over an air interface. The node comprises a transmitter, a processor, and a receiver. The processor is configured to detect the mobile device, to generate a nonce, to determine a key shared with the mobile device and to compute a second MAC based on the generated nonce and the key, and to construct a second training sequence comprising the second MAC. The transmitter is configured to transmit the generated nonce to the mobile device. The receiver is configured to receive a first training sequence comprising a first MAC from the mobile device and to tune the receiving circuits of the receiver, based on the first and second training sequences; and to receive a further message from the mobile device. Further, the processor is configured to decode the further message and authenticate the mobile device or reject the mobile device.
