Nowadays, Vehicular ad hoc Network as a special class of Mobile ad hoc Network(MANET), provides plenty of services. However, it also brings the privacy protection issues, and there are conflicts between the privacy protection and the services. In this paper, we will propose a privacy protection algorithm based on group signature including two parts, group signature based anonymous verification and batch verification. The anonymous verification is based on the network model we proposed, which can reduce the trust authority burden by dividing the roadside units into different levels, and the batch verification can reduce the time of message verification in one group. We also prove our algorithm can satisfy the demand of privacy protection. Finally, the simulation shows that the algorithm we proposed is better than the BBS on the length of the signature, time delay and packet loss rate.
