4PR: Privacy preserving routing in mobile delay tolerant networks.
Computer Networks(2016)
摘要
Message routing is one of the major challenges in Mobile Delay Tolerant Networks (MDTNs) due to frequent and long-term network partitions. A number of routing protocols for MDTNs belong to the category of prediction-based routing protocols, which utilize the social encounter probability of nodes to guide message forwarding. However, these prediction-based routing protocols compromise the privacy of the nodes by revealing their mobility patterns. In this paper, we propose the Privacy Preserving Probabilistic Prediction-based Routing (4PR) protocol that forwards messages by comparing aggregated information about communities instead of individual nodes. Specifically, it compares the probability that at least one node in a community will encounter the destination node. We present theoretical security analyses as well as practical performance evaluations. Our simulations on a well established community-based mobility model demonstrate that our routing protocol has comparable performance to existing prediction-based protocols. Additionally, the community information is computed efficiently and independently of the routing protocol.
