Abstract: Accomplishing anonymity in MANETs (Mobile Ad Hoc Networks) for secure and efficient routing plays a vital role in sensitive data communication. Anonymity is preserved in various ways such as source anonymity, Destination anonymity, usage of pseudonyms etc. Large scale Applications and emergency military operations encompasses the anonymity preserving task. In this paper, anonymity is preserved by means of “Anonymous Agents”. Shortest path to destination is calculated using GPSR(Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing) protocol. The source maintains a data cache table. Anonymous Agents are chosen in the path determined by GPSR. Digital Signature is used for authentication. From simulation results, Delay and Routing Performance is improved as well as security is preserved by the adopted scheme.
Keywords: Anonymity, Anonymous Agents, Digital Signature, GPSR, RSA, Security.
