Abstract

We propose a new anonymous multicast protocol named Encryption and Pseudo-based Anonymous Multicast Protocol (EPAMP). EPAMP is an anonymous routing protocol based on MAODV in mobile ad hoc networks. It adopts the pseudonym mechanism to hide the senders identity, and uses encryption/decryption mechanism to thwart eavesdropping and intrusion attacks. It can ensure the anonymity of senders, receivers and the communication of neighboring nodes. Performance analysis and simulation results indicate that EPAMP can ensure anonymity performance, and effectively resist collusion attacks and predecessor attacks. It brings only slight transmission delay and decrease in packet transmission rate.
