Abstract | Nowadays, source location privacy in underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) has gained a lot of attention. The aim of source location privacy is to use specific technologies to protect the location of the source from being compromised. Among the many technologies available are fake packet technology, multi-path routing technology and so on. The fake packet technology uses a certain amount of fake packets to mask the transmission of the source packet, affecting the adversary's efficiency of hop-by-hop backtracking to the source. However, during the operation of the fake packet technology, the fake packet, and the source packet may interfere with each other. Focus on this, a fake packet time slot assignment-based source location privacy protection (FPTSA-SLP) scheme. The time slot assignment is adopted to avoid interference with the source packet. Also, a relay node selection method based on the handshake is further proposed to increase the diversity of the routing path to confuse the adversary. Compared with the comparison algorithm, the simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has a better performance in safety time. |
