Abstract

The deployment of sensor network, in security and safety critical environment requires secure communication primitives. Wireless mobile sensor network deployed in the hostile environments are susceptible to malicious traffic analysis which allow the enemy to trace the routing messages and the sensitive data packets. The network involves as group communication in this type of environment. This paper proposes and analyzes a scalable and efficient group communication scheme, by introducing identity based routing path in mobile wireless sensor networks. The system employs multiple member change operation in a group (group merge) and demonstrate a secure routing path for event changed group along with the existing group. Through comparison and simulation, we have shown that our protocol has high probability to be resilient and also having low communication overhead for secure communication among mobile nodes.
