Privacy Aware Schemes in Mobile Adhoc Networks

A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a system of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically self-organize in arbitrary and temporary network topologies. Both selfish and privacy issues have been identified as two crucial human factors for the wide acceptance of MANETs. Security has become a primary concern in order to provide protected communication between mobile nodes. In this work we present a review on a number of privacy aware schemes but credit-based incentive and privacy-aware data dissemination (IPAD) scheme for MANETs, which mainly exploits how to simultaneously protect mobile node’s privacy and provide a fair incentive for efficiently disseminating a time-valuable data in privacy-aware MANETs provides more privacy.
