A Study on Anonymous Communication Technology in MANET

摘要

This paper addresses the anonymous communications technology. Multiple hops, self-organization, no fixed facilities and limited computing resources of wireless ad hoc networks (MANET) make it hard to apply high complexity of a traditional network security algorithm. Security mechanisms can better solve the security issues of anonymous communication. This paper mainly studies the existing anonymous technology of traditional networks and MANET, and summarizes its advantages and disadvantages. With this article, readers can have a more thorough understanding of anonymous communication security and research trends in this area.
