On an information theoretic approach to model anonymous MANET communications
Dijiang Huang · 2009
Measuring communication anonymity (e.g., unlinkability) of anonymous communication systems is a critical, however, unsolved problem. To address this issue, we present an information theoretic model for unlinkability measure for MANETs. Our approach is based on evidence theory, where the basic measuring component is a ldquosetrdquo. We present a traffic slicing method to model mobility followed by theoretical models to evaluate sender and receiver unlinkability, path unlinkability, and system unlinkability.
