Abstract EN
In MANET multicasting, forward and backward secrecy result in increased packet drop rate owing to mobility.
Frequent rekeying causes large message overhead which increases energy consumption and end-to-end delay.
Particularly, the prevailing group key management techniques cause frequent mobility and disconnections.
So there is a need to design a multicast key management technique to overcome these problems.
In this paper, we propose the mobility based key management technique for multicast security in MANET.
Initially, the nodes are categorized according to their stability index which is estimated based on the link availability and mobility.
A multicast tree is constructed such that for every weak node, there is a strong parent node.
A session key-based encryption technique is utilized to transmit a multicast data.
The rekeying process is performed periodically by the initiator node.
The rekeying interval is fixed depending on the node category so that this technique greatly minimizes the rekeying overhead.
By simulation results, we show that our proposed approach reduces the packet drop rate and improves the data confidentiality.
