Abstract

The security deployment in mobile ad hoc networks is frequently hampered by resource constraints. The current routing systems of mobile ad hoc networks deploy very weak security techniques in order to copy with the computational overhead and bandwidth consumption. In this paper, we present an ID-based online/offline signature scheme which provides a full scale of security with sound performance. We show that our scheme is secure against existential forgery under adaptive chosen message attacks.
