ABSTRACT
LBS (Location Based Service) has become more and more popular in recent years. LBS allows Users to explore the surrounding environment. Users need to transmit their information such as position, POI, identification to untrusted service provider who can be considered as an attacker. By using those data, the attacker may obtain users' privacy. Therefore, there is an increasing amount of research to protect the privacy of users when using the LBSs. Our research aims to improve the shortcomings of past protection methods. In the experiment, our approach is compared with other approaches by using entropy and our approach can provide better protection in three kinds of side information applications.

Location Privacy Protection Scheme Based on Location Services
ICCNS '19: Proceedings of the 2019 9th International Conference on Communication and Network SecurityLocation-based services (LBS) in the mobile internet applications are very important and provide a great convenience. However, at the same time it brings the threat of privacy leak. For location services, a location privacy protection scheme is proposed,...
Resilient Privacy Protection for Location-Based Services through Decentralization
Location-Based Services (LBSs) provide valuable services, with convenient features for mobile users. However, the location and other information disclosed through each query to the LBS erodes user privacy. This is a concern especially because LBS ...
Protecting location privacy using location semantics
KDD '11: Proceedings of the 17th ACM SIGKDD international conference on Knowledge discovery and data miningAs the use of mobile devices increases, a location-based service (LBS) becomes increasingly popular because it provides more convenient context-aware services. However, LBS introduces problematic issues for location privacy due to the nature of the ...
