Abstract
In hostile environments, the communication content and communication route need to be shielded from malicious attackers. The AnonDSR (Anonymous Dynamic Source Routing for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks) protocol has been proposed to ensure security and anonymity in ad-hoc networks. The protocol transmits data after establishing an encryption key and communication route. One weakness of the AnonDSR is that it consists of 3 steps: security parameter establishment, route discovery, and data transmission. In this paper, we propose a variant of AnonDSR that reduces the 3 steps into 2 steps. Our protocol decreases the communication route setup time for each communication session by 31% in comparison with the AnonDSR.
