Shushan Zhao · 2007
This is a survey on application of Identity-Based Cryptography in mobile ad hoc networks. In this survey, we review all papers that are available in the literature on security schemes on mobile ad hoc networks using Identity-Based Cryptography during years 2001 to 2007. To introduce the topic, we first review most important developments on general Identity-Based Cryptography. The survey introduces briefly the technology of Identity-Based Cryptography, summarizes different approaches of applying it to secure mobile ad hoc networks. It also discusses future directions and open problems of general Identity-Based Cryptography and its application in mobile ad hoc networks.
