Abstract

Introducing node mobility into the network also introduces new anonymity threats. Nevertheless, this important change of the concept of anonymity has not been studied in state-of-art network security research. This paper presents the needed study. Then we show that anonymous routing in mobile networks has great impact on routing performance. We calls for the attention to devise new and efficient anonymous routing schemes for mobile ad hoc networks.
